@paviro said in Issue with sendSocketNotification and socketNotificationReceived:

Only had a quick look at your code but it seems like you are not sending anything from the UI JavaScript to the node_helper. In order for the node_helper to be able to communicate with the module’s JavaScript you have to open the socket connection by sending some kind of initial message to the helper first. So you can probably fix it by adding this.sendSocketNotification("hello") to the start function of your lovenotes.js.

Thank you! This helped a lot!!!

ok i just found something new (for me)
you could do this “port-thing” if you put this:
this.expressApp.listen(3000)

I allready read a lot in this forum, but found that this page i another great source of information:

It’s a little bit of Topic. I know and I’m sorry… :)

I’ve got another idea, that I’m just working on. It doesn’t have to be another port. As I saw in the description you could make a module named backend and put a website inside the public folder. I’m going to try this and will keep you up to date. I’ve got another question. I don’t know, if I should ask it here or make a new Thread.
Is there any database on the rpi3 installation that would be prefered to use?

@KirAsh4

Did you find an answer on how to make a new port for another webside?

Is it possible to use a different (additional) port to show a different page? I would like to use it to make a backend, so that I do not allways have to change the files via ssh. And I want to do a module to send messages to the mirror. Or would it be better to use a webservice or something like this?

Thanks for your help! :)

or even Facebook. :) That sounds interesting. But I think, that I’m not able to do it. Just thought, someone allready did it, because it sounds so logic to me. :)

Thats great. Didn’t try it, but it looks amazing. Thank you for sharing… :)

@RedNax It’s the type you descriped. I allready bought one of these. And ist really heavy…

you could just comment it out.

/*
{
	module:clock,
	position: 'top_left',
}
*/

would do the job. :)

Did anyone try to do something like this? You could use it like these digital pictureframes and show your favourite holidaypictures.
I can’t find a module, that does something like this. It’s such a simple idea, that I thought someone might have done it, and I’m just to stupid to find it… :)
