@chinnu_2012 logon to your github account, then search for MagicMirror… when there, click Fork,
and then YOU will have a copy

that is a good URL to the MagicMirror repo…

@timjong93 spawn background process, good… that is how voice works and a bunch of other things that have defined processes…

and I recently saw MMM-RemoteControl, which seems to support sending command strings …

that only works for PI devices where tvservice command exists… I run MM on an ODROID so, that doesn’t help…

I also use an EnergyStar TV, which freaks out when the video input signal is cut and then powers off after 15 minutes…

i think you are on the right path…

the module.js can see other modules for show/hide, but the node_helper cannot
the node_helper can import other libraries, where the module.js cannot…

i just made MMM-SleepWake (https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-SleepWake) which allows some external source (camera via https://motion-project.github.io/) to indicate motion or not, (by writing a file),
and the node helper uses the file system support to detect that file… and then decides what to do…

• if it can directly control the display device (pi, or use DPMS), then the node helper does the work. but my system runs on an ODROID SMC, so the pi tvservice command doesn’t work to turn off the monitor (my TV)…
• the DPMS command (seen used by HelloLucy) turns off the hdmi/dvi source…
  on my TV this shows the big blue ‘NO Input’ screen (counter to what I wanted!)…
• so I have a software driven sleep (that hides all modules, and remembers ones already hidden)… but that has to be implemented in the module.js… so there is communication from the node_helper to the module.

whether its file, or sockets, or some queue… you’ve got the right idea…
I use HelloLucy (on top of MMM-voice) to sleep/wake and hide/show modules via voice.
i don’t see any ability to inject phrases to the processed in that module…

@tnp0327 minimize the mirror window (alt-spacebar, n) and the terminal windows used to start the mirror will be shown… the debug is in that window…

least thats how I do it!..

this debugs the node_helper
ctrl-shift-i will open the mirror debug window (select console tab) this will show the module level debug
