    • [MMM-ApexCharts] ApexCharts.js for your mirror.

      Description:

      Chart module using ApexCharts.js for MagicMirror².

      I’m aware of the other chart modules out there, but I like using ApexCharts.js in my projects. Coloring via themes and its monochrome option make it a perfect match for a mirror project.

      Chart data can be supplied in config or pulled from JSON api.

      Screenshots:

      Pie chart with default options
      alt text

      Same pie chart with custom options:
      alt text

      Bar chart with default options:
      alt text

      Allows for multiple charts:

      Download / Instructions:

      Version 1

      Initial release

      Support for stacked bar charts added
      Samples added to github wiki

    • 24" Frame Mirror

      Hey All,

      First a big thanks to everyone. Wonderful forum with tons of help.

      I’m building a mirror for my best friend for her birthday. I need to keep it simple so I dont have to provide much support. LOL. I dont have real pictures to show yet, but below is a mock up of what it will hopefully look like.

      0_1527786218955_MagicMirror_Frame_2018-May-31_05-00-14PM-000_CustomizedView15504027614.png

      Hardware:
      Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with 16GB
      LG IPS LED Monitor (24MP48) with bezel removed
      Two Way Mirrors 1/4" Smart Mirror with polished edges
      NECO-X 24" IR Frame
      Mini USB Microphone (probably wont work once in frame)
      PS3 Eye
      Dual fan for RPi (maybe)
      Chrome switches
      Pimoroni On-Off Shim
      White braided extension cord

      Frame:
      4 layers of 3/4" birch plywood. Front will have a walnut stain. The sides will be painted white.

      Modules:
      Clock
      Calendar
      Compliments
      Current Weather
      Weather Forecast
      MMM-Cursor
      MMM-MyCommute
      MMM-newsfeedtouch
      MMM-voice MMM-Kalliope
      MMM-Wunderlist-Enhanced
      MMM-SystemStats (will probably remove, but good during dev)

      Misc:
      Remot3.it I have this set up for ssh and rdp. Works great

      Cron job to reboot RPi every night at midnight.

      Two buttons on the side will be used to turn the RPi off completely using the Pimoroni On-Off shim and to power the monitor off completely. I’m using MMM-voice to put the monitor in stand-by.

      Enabled the Open GL driver fix. I had some issues with MMM-voice after doing this. The usb mic and display would alternate device IDs after every reboot. The fix is noted here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/7232/mmm-voice-mic-number-changes

      I’m currently working on a custom version of MMM-voice that will show responses on the screen. i.e. After detection of keyword a modal will pop up to display hello message and some tips on what commands can be used. My first idea was to use MMM-TTS for the response, but I couldnt get it to work.

      There was some questions on the forums about if and how well the IR frame would work when paired with a mirror. I can report that it works great. Edit: I’ve decided to not use the IR Frame. The fingerprints on the mirror were annoying. Now that I have Kalliope working well, there’s no need for the IR Frame.

      I’m hoping to get the frame done this weekend. I’ll post pics of the process next week.

    • RE: will this work on the new Pi 3B+??

      I have it running on the new 3 B+. Works great. I used the install instructions from the wiki.

    • RE: [MMM-ApexCharts] ApexCharts.js for your mirror.

      JSON fetch interval added via chartInterval option. If option is not specified in config, the chart will only load JSON data at startup.

    • RE: My small but smart mirror :)

      Thank you for the assist. Its amazing what a good mic will do. I cant get the ReSpeaker 4-mic to work, but that’s not a fault of Kalliope. I dont think it works with the new RPi’s or I received a dead one. I tested with the PS3 eye and it works great. Almost no delay. I even changed up my design to mimic yours a bit. Thank you again. You’ve been a great help here and on gitter.

    • RE: Making changes without stopping MM

      @idoodler Totally agree, but for css and location changes, ctrl r saves a ton of time.
