MMM-Buttons

dvbit

Not really a new module.
A fork / correction of an existing one that I am not able to fix

MMM-Buttons by Jopyth seems abandoned
When I do nom install I get a message about a not correct version of node-abi

I tried the solution here https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Buttons/issues/16

but no success.
If I cannot fix it I will be forced to use a very “rough” solution a python script running in background and sending notifications via api.

Not nice but it will work.

help @bugsounet

bugsounet

go to this module directory and try this:

npm remove electron-rebuild
npm install magicmirror-rebuild
npm install

and you will see:

✔ MagicMirror Rebuild Complete

magicmirror-rebuild is @bugsounet an app !

dvbit

I had seen your pst in mm forum and tried it.
But I will redo from scratch

bugsounet

Tested :

and works

dvbit

doing it right now. I was missing the initial remove step

dvbit

success building it. now for the config

bugsounet

Really too magicmirror-rebuild (like his master !)

dvbit

Works perfect THANKS!!!

dvbit

LOVE IT.
Just used for another module that had troubles: MMM-PIR Sensor

You may ask : why you use PIR sensor when you have my perfect module?
You are right but I use of PIR Sensor the possibility of having an always on pin (I have a switch on the side of the mirror to suspend the sensor if I want) and always off…

have a look at the config : it has a couple of nice features (always in , always off etc)

bugsounet

Eco system is not the same, maybe complex to add it … I have to look (when i have done all my new very big plugin)

bugsounet

After… Maybe i will code this 2 plugins for Screen … why not

dvbit

I refer to this functions:
I have some bistable buttons that I used to link to this behaviour of mmm-pir

alwaysOnPin If you would like to use a GPIO pin to trigger power-saving mode. Ideal for users who want to have a physical switch that controls whether or not to use the motion sensor.

Possible values: int
Default value: false
Note: Please use BCM-numbering.
alwaysOnState GPIO-state to trigger always-on.

Possible values: int (0 or 1)
Default value: 1
alwaysOffPin If you would like to use a GPIO pin to trigger sleep mode. Ideal for users who want to have a physical switch to shut off the screen (perhaps the mirror is too bright at night).

Possible values: int
Default value: false
Note: Please use BCM-numbering.
alwaysOffState GPIO-state to trigger always-off.

Possible values: int (0 or 1)
Default value: 1

So basically one inhibits the motion detection. The other turns off. Linked to a physical switch
