@sdetweil Thanks for letting me know something I should have know.
I will do better in the future.

@TAGinside Thanks. I’m learning more everyday and that feels good.

@TAGinside Using MMM-Config, many thanks to sdetweil/MMM-Config, I now have a new config.js that offers many more options for the default Weather modules. I wondered if mine was updating regularly so In kept notes of the temp and time I checked and things were working properly. Below is the contents of the default weather module config. Note they have an “updateInterval: 600000” in the second instance which should be about 10 minutes.

Hope this helps,
RonR

@sdetweil Yes, I did add that to config.js. It is nice to have done something right for a change. :)

@sdetweil Yes, that is where I downloaded from.

Running MM V2.33.0 on Docker. I installed MMM-ISS-Live but it only shows this error message: “Error 153
Video player configuration error”

I have done some research and found that I need to add " referrerpolicy=“strict-origin-when-cross-origin” " to the IFrame. I looked at the MMM-ISS-Live.js file, found a section dealing with IFrame and inserted the policy statement following the format of the other Iframe statements. That change alone did not fix the problem, same error message after restarting MM.

I noticed several references to electron and now I’m wondering if this module will even run under Docker.

Any suggestions/thoughts greatly appreciated.
RonR

I wanted to mark this one solved,but couldn’t get to it. I found a spelling error that fixed it. Bottom does not have 3 t’s :)
Now there is a problem with the video not playing and I’m looking for a work around. I think it is way out of my knowledge base to fix it though.

Thanks for replying.

Running MM on docker. Trying to install a new module, MMM-ISS-Live, download it into magicmirror/mounts/modules/MMM-ISS-Live. Ran npm install and updated config.js for the new module.

When I restart the mm module and open MM the default modules are there but nothing for the module I just installed. MM logs does not show any errors for the module. The quadrant, bottom_left, is empty so no conflicts there.

Any ideas on where to look for the problem?

Ron R

@sdetweil Sam, I can’t believe how simple it was and I just over looked it in the docs. Thanks for being so patient with me.

@schlomm Thanks, I understand, download new module files.

Ron R

@sdetweil Sam, I installed your config module but it does not display on the screen. I tried moving it to the bottom-right but no difference. I tried to reinstall it w/ npm install, no help.

This is the portion of the config.js for MMM-config. I added the restart entry because I wanted it to restart after an change to the file.
{
module:“MMM-Config”,
position:“bottom_right”,
// the QR code (if requested) will appear here
config:{
restart:“docker”,
}
{,

As far as I know I have followed all the directions.

@sdetweil Sam, It is working WOW. :) Now the question is can I move the modules I have on the old system over to this one and modifiy the config file? I’m going to install your config module also.

Ron

@sdetweil Sam, I saw your module yesterday while browsing the 3rd party modules list. I will definitely take download your module. Thanks.

@sdetweil Sam, Thanks for the pointer. I looked for the instructions but missed them some how. Tried to install a different image yesterday but it crashed with missing files. I’ll let you know how this works out for me. I’m practicing right now before I try to do it on my RPI5.

Hi, I’m trying to get MM to run on Docker. Right now I’m practicing on my laptop. I have Docker installed and working and have been through the start of their tutorial. I’m trying to figure out how to download the image from https://github.com/khassel/magicmirror which appears to be the best one of the list I found. I tried Docker pull and got an error: invalid reference format. I cloned the image to my computer and tried to run build but it failed because of no dockerfile. I haven’t the least idea what base image it would use or any dependencies needed.

I’m new fairly new to MM and want to put it on an RPI5 with a 256Gb SSD, planning on running as ServerOnly, so I want to use docker to be able to do something beside run MM like maybe a small NAS. I know I’m pushing my envelope but at my age, 79, I’m not sure how much envelope I have left.

Any helpful hints are greatly appreciated.

Sam, here is the URL origin https://github.com/justjim1220/MMM-NewsFeedTicker (fetch)

It was my bad for trying to shorten the title by leaving off the MMM-. Sorry won’t do that again.

Here is the config I am using:

{
    module: "MMM-NewsFeedTicker",
    position: "bottom_bar",
    //classes: "day_scheduler",
    config: {
      feeds: [

        {
          title: "WFTS News",
          url: "https://www.abcactionnews.com/news.rss",
          customLogo: "wftslogo.png"
        },
	{
          title: "WFTS Local News",
          url: "https://www.abcactionnews.com/news/local-news.rss",
          customLogo: "wftslogoSm.png"
        }
      ]
    }
   },

I appreciate your help. I just want to display the headline and not the start of the article. But I have not seen anything that I recognize as controlling that as a feature.

I’m using NewFeedTicker for my local news RSS feed. Is there a way to get just the headlines and not the start of the article? I’m still trying to figure out some of the timing and would prefer to see more headlines and less from the actual articles. I don’t see anything about it on the github page. Any suggestions are welcome. THX

OK, that helps make sense now.

Thanks

Sam,
I’m not trying to be difficult but you suggest I delete the config/electron directory? Does the system reconstruct that directory when MM is restarted?

As for the electronOptions {X: 1680} do I use the width of the monitor I want MM displayed on or is it the monitor I do not want it displayed on. The larger monitor has a width of 1920.

Sorry I don’t mean to be so dense but I want to understand what I’m doing.

Thanks

Yes, the desktop is spread over both monitors. The bar is on the little monitor and the big monitor only has wallpaper until MM loads at boot. When I restart MM it moves to the small monitor leaving the big one with just wall paper.
