Hello all,

I thought I would share with you my first MagicMirror project.

Also want to say thank you to the entire community for the healthy support and commitment to the MagicMirror and all it’s newbies, I for one truly appreciate it.

I am currently using the following modules
MMM-RPI-LED
MMM-iCloud-Client
calendar
MMM-Events
MMM-Globe
MMM-DarkSkyForecast
MMM-HomeAutomation (local hack of ‘mmm-openhabfloorplan’ used for displaying home automation, power and local weather station data)
MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify
MMM-SystemStats
newsfeed
MMM-Cursor
MMM-Remote-Control

Frame was made from reclaimed barn wood and glass is Dielectric TV Mirror from twowaymirrors.com

Screen is a Dell (S2718D) S series 27-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor

This monitor has a USB-C power adapter with a USB-C pass through which I used to power the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+

I also have attached a USB speaker and USB microphone (both currently unused)

I have had a lot of fun building the home automation portion that displays the status of more than 100 smart home devices including indoor and outdoor lighting, security sensors, thermostats, fan controls and smart roller shades.

Here are a couple of pictures of the mirror

Feedback welcome.

Hello,

I have a webcam url that returns an SVG graphic that I would like to display on my MagicMirror2, anyone know of a way or module to do this?

Thanks!

Rick

@sdetweil Yes, I am not very confident in my Internet sometimes! I work from home and I see my connection to the office drop for a few seconds on average every day. I am also trying to rule that out as a possible cause for some mysterious lockups where the MM and RPi appear to still be running but I lose VNC connectivity and eventually have to pull the plug to reboot

@sdetweil Thank you for the explanation, I will not worry too much about those errors then.

I have had some mysterious lockups on the MM and so I am just trying to resolve what I can from the logs to better pin it down, I really appreciate all the help!

@sdetweil No, I do not run any DNS blocking tools locally.

Hello, I have seen few times in the logs the errors below.

Does anyone know if this is more likely related to local internet connectivity or something external and if there are any ways to resolve it.

Thank you kindly,

Rick

Hello, I have seen the following errors in the log for calendars and am looking for help to resolve them.

The first issue appears it may be a legit 503 service unavailable issue, but does throw an error into the log.

[2020-10-14 13:34:33.657] [ERROR]  Calendar Error. Could not fetch calendar:  http://p42-calendars.icloud.com/published/2/MjE1NDI5NjM0Mj*MASKED*--sxGM 503: Service Temporarily Unavailable

I have also seen the following error but they don’t always coincide with the 503 errors so not sure if they are related or not.

@sdetweil said in Calendar appears to be fetching the last calendar in the list multiple times.:

@vvrangler yeh, it seems to luck out currently

the top code starts the fetcher and a starts a timer for each calendar entry
the fetcher ALSO starts a timer, so if its never called again, it still returns a refreshed list

I changed it so the top code starts the fetcher for each calendar entry
and let the fetcher handle its configured timer cycle

The change definitely fixed the issue and everything looks good now during the subsequent polls, thank you again.

I also have a couple of other calendar related issues that I’ve seen in the log, would it be best if I closed this topic and post a new one?

@sdetweil Yes, the number of events look to be good, and I’m not really seeing any issues because of this, it’s just something that I noticed in the logs.

Hello,

I have 4 calendars configured, under the default MM2 calendar module

		{
			module: 'calendar',
			header: 'Calendar',
			position: 'top_left',
			config: {
				maxTitleLength: 50,
				maximumEntries: 20,
				wrapEvents: true,
				fadePoint: 0.8,
				colored: true,
				dateFormat: 'ddd MMM Do hh:mma',
				dateEndFormat: 'ddd MMM Do hh:mma',
				timeFormat: 'absolute',
				useRelativeDates: true,
				columns: false,
				urgency: 0,
				titleReplace: {
					'USA: ': ''
					},
				calendars: [
						{
							symbol: 'trash-o',
							color: '#CCCC00',
							showLocation: false,
							url: 'webcal://recollect.a.ssl.fastly.net/api/places/**masked**/events.en-US.ics'
						},
						{
							symbol: 'calendar',
							color: '#9CECC4',
							showLocation: true,
							url: 'webcal://p64-calendars.icloud.com/published/2/**masked**'
						},
						{
							symbol: 'calendar-o',
							color: '#A2D7FF',
							showLocation: false,
							url: 'webcal://ical.mac.com/ical/US32Holidays.ics'
						},
						{
							symbol: '',
							color: '#FF6600',
							showLocation: false,
							url: 'webcal://p42-calendars.icloud.com/published/2/**masked**--sxGM'
						},
					],
				excludedEvents: []
			}
		},

And when the calendars are refreshed it appears that whatever the last one in the config list is gets loaded an extra time for each one of the other calendars configured is this normal/expected behavior?

@thisistheplace what I had to do was append on the 2fa code to the end of my password.

{
module: ‘MMM-iCloud-Client’,
config: {
username: “username@icloud.com”,
password: “mypassword123456”,
countrycode: “1”,
}
},
