  • Front door mirror

    0_1475720164276_mirror.jpg
    I always used to have a mirror next to the front door so made this one to provide at a glance information on the way out. I’m not much of a wood worker nor do I have a workshop so I got the frame made up in Michaels. The frame is based on a shadow box frame. The mirror material is a 2-way acrylic from TAP Plastics.

    The first incarnation (V1.0) used an old Pi-A and had some home-brew code running on it. When I heard about the MM2 project I figured it was time to create Mirror 2.0. This version has a Pi-Zero for it’s brains and I ported over some of the modules I had in mirror V1.0.

    The next step (V2.1) will be to put a power point on the wall behind the mirror and use the remaining hole for a PIR so I can blank the screen when no one is in front of it.

    0_1475719235442_forecast.png
    This module is another weather module and is a port of a home-brew mirror project I’d done prior to switching to MM2. I got used to the three day forecast and the details it provided so figured I’d port it across. I hope you like it.

    You can get it here

  • RE: Tutorials or Overview for Module Dev?

    @nbrenn I found it really useful to find a module someone had already written and look at that as an example. I’ve now written a few simple modules that just pull data from web service and display it on screen. Feel free to fork any of them and pull them apart for ideas, the one I just submitted (MMM-AirNow) is pretty basic.

    0_1475718995418_weatherNow.png
    This is yet another weather module, this one is very simple and is designed to be used in conjunction with the module MMM-3Day-Forecast. It’s basically a port of my own home-brew mirror project. I just got used to the display, I hope you like it too.

  • MMM-FAA-Delay

    0_1471474410836_airport-delays.png

    This module displays information published by the FAA on delays and weather conditions at some US airports. The full airport list can be seen here.

    This is my first module so please let me know if you find any errors in the code/documentation. It currently covers US airports only, so if you know of other feeds for different regions then let me know and I’ll see if they can be integrated.

    I hope you like this and find it useful!

  • RE: MMM-FAA-Delay

    @fwood04 I’ve found some time and reworked the code so that you can provide an array of airport codes and display multiple airports correctly.
    You will need to re-clone the module and use the new format of configuration.

    I hope that helps.

  • RE: MMM-3Day-Forecast

    @cowboysdude I’ve spotted an error in my ReadMe that I think has caused the problem here. In my example config I only put key where I entered the API key instead of api_key. Try changing the name of that config variable and things should sort themselves out, I hope that works. Let me know if there are any other problems and I’ll update the Read Me files.

  • RE: Installing on a Pi Zero

    @sdetweil thanks for the support, that fixed it!

    It looks like npm was broken. I removed node and npm then installed node v10.20.1 and things seem to be working again. Running npm install --only=prod let the install run without getting upset about electron!

    @sdetweil looks like the script gets to the same place :(

    Installing dependencies ...
    npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: electron@^6.1.7 (node_modules/electron):
    npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Cannot read property 'resolve' of undefined

    Unable to install dependencies! 
    

    The config.json only mentions electron in the optional dependancies so I don’t know where the resolve comes from. It looks to the the property of some var that is not being set.

  • RE: Installing on a Pi Zero

    @sdetweil hi, I have everything else set up and don’t really want to change thing, I had configured the PiZero some time ago. I was just reinstalling MM2. I decided I had left it so long since the last up date I just backed up my modules + config and have performed a reinstall. As far as I can tell the script is attempting a full config of the pi0?

    Hi, I have not been able to work on these modules as a full time role has limited my time considerably. To make tweaks I recommend forking the repo in git hub.

  • RE: MMM-VTA-Live

    Just in case there are any super early adopters, I added a fix to stop trains from disappearing if I did not get back a response from a particular vehicle. The times are now cached if this happens so the old time is used until I get an update or they become outdated by the response time.

    VTA Live.
    This module shows arrival times for a VTA light rail stop on the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority system. Useful if you’re in the South Bay and running for a train :)

    You can get this module from HERE! Enjoy.

  • RE: MMM-FAA-Delay

    @twosquirrels ok I have made the changes, so try an update. The blanks should now display the headline status. Sadly the FAA’s documentation is somewhat opaque and does not seem to totally match what I actually get from the API so there may be one or two cases where the word ‘undefined’ crops up rather than a time for an actual delay. If you see that just drop me a line and let me know what the status and text was and I’ll try and figure out what’s going on.

  • RE: MMM-FAA-Delay

    @twosquirrels sorry for the delay in getting to this, I just got back from some travels. It looks like the FAA have made more changes than I realized. Next to the airports code (in the red boxes) should be a short status indicator, e.g. ‘Ok’, ‘Delays’, ‘Closed’, etc. Then in the line below (which is showing) should be a brief line of detail to give a bit more detail on the status, especially if there is a delay.
