@zdenek You can use a VirtualMachine with a Linux-distribution to get access…or a Live-CD with Linux…or Putty to read the content from a Win/Mac…depends on your needs.

@brentmatthews
will you show us your dashboard when it is complete;-)?

@mezcalbomb
You can use virtualbox (you may find images/instructions in the internet) to get a running raspberry and additionally install MM2 there…

Without looking deeper in it, but https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-virtualbox/ may work.

@mitm
You can display the chart of your BirdNet-Pi as a picture with a MM-module, see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/17955/birdnet-pi-chart-on-mm2?page=1

Currently, I’m using an RPI4 with BirdNET-Pi outside in the garden and an RPI3b as MM2. Both are in the same WIFI-net. Best is to use the standard-installation of BirdNET-Pi and to use the recommended names.

1. install MMM-EasyPix at MM2
2. add MMM-EasyPix to your config.js with birdnet.png as the name of the picture
3. add the following code to a file called
   makedownloadbirdnet.py at the root-folder of MM2
   sudo nano makedownloadbirdnet.py

#!/usr/bin/python
# coding:utf-8
#
import os
import urllib.request
import datetime

current_date = datetime.date.today()

url = "http://birdnetpi.local/Charts/Combo-"  + str(current_date) + ".png"
nix = "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/keinbild.png"
out = "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-EasyPix/pix/birdnet.png"

# Prüfen, ob es bereits eine Datei out im Verzeichnis gibt
if os.path.exists(out):
#   alte Datei löschen
    os.remove(out)

# Herunterladen der Datei
try:
    urllib.request.urlretrieve(url, out)
except:
    os.system(f'cp "{nix}" "{out}"')

4. Create a small picture with a hint, that a chart is not available, name it keinbild.png and store it in the modules-folder at MM2.
5. Create a cronjob at MM2:

* * * * sudo python3 makedownloadbirdnet.py

@Hinge for me it runs perfect.

@cyberdie May be @bhepler can catch the pictures from BirdNET directly…
