Magic Mirror addon for home assistant

fernandex00 · May 18, 2019, 8:29pm

I think the developer has to make an update

johnandjen3212 · May 19, 2019, 7:38pm

Figured it out: you can install it from the EDGE repository of community add-ons. Fair warning, I’m already hitting bugs to report so it’s not 100% but pretty dang close. The community add-on github repo looks to be where current work is being done, but who knows when it’ll get to stable release.

fernandex00 · May 19, 2019, 8:48pm

Yes, but I couldn’t install any module, and there are no config file, do you managed to install modules?

johnandjen3212 · May 19, 2019, 11:04pm

After installing the add-on I was able to get MM modules installed (there is a config file, it’s in a magicmirror folder in your config folder), but my bugs center around the add-on container not restarting nginx properly so I’m not able to see the updates yet. Fwiw I got to “hello world”, watched in the logs as the add-on installed the modules I specified in the config, and will just have to wait for the restart bug to get worked out or I figure out a workaround. But it does look like the wheels are in motion.

This addon creates a magicmirror folder, what is the location of the community edge addon,?

johnandjen3212 · May 20, 2019, 2:43am

for completeness, there’s also

Thank you but you don’t understand my question, i got magic mirror addon from the edge repository, you said there was a magicmirror folder where you can edit the config file, this folder is in a different location to the the old magicmirror addon creates ?

Guillaume_Corgnet · June 4, 2019, 7:22pm

Would also be keen to know where that config folder is created for the edge add-on

vMeph:

 module: "MMM-HASS",
                position: "top_left",
                config: {
                        host: "192.168.1.164/api/states/", // what goes here?????
                        port: "8123",
                        https: false,
seems the problem with most people here is what goes there??
also it seems the HA is going away from having api passwords and going for tokes, how to go about it?
@sytone

To get this working the long lived toked has to be handed over as environmental variable. For this purpose I created a magic mirror.config.js in the same folder as the mm.sh

module.exports = {
  apps : [
      {
        name: "MagicMirror",
        script: "./mm.sh",
        watch: true,
        env: {
          "HASSIO_TOKEN": „XXXXXXXXXXXX“
        }
      }
  ]
}

In the absense of @sytone I’ve fixed what was causing the error, it was an easy fix, please try my repository. I’ve also included the pull-request and added extra info where needed.

@sytone, let me know if you want to receive a pull-request with my changes.

Any suggestions for improving the README.md are welcome, I’m not using this add-on (yet).

"What I wanted was to show a camera feed in the middle of the mirror when I would say “hey google show outside camera”
Any ideas?

vipk31 · August 20, 2019, 8:24am

Do you use “magic mirror add on”?

myle · August 20, 2019, 8:28am

No

But looking at also righting my own add on I can read the api and get a list of modules loaded my python is Google reading

vipk31 · August 21, 2019, 3:55am

Thanks for the response
Can this integrate Magic Mirror Modules?
eg: Module MM-Clock

Blebbens · September 1, 2019, 2:51pm

Hi there,

I added the Magic Mirror git-repo to my hass.io. After adding, nothing happened… nothing magic mirror related showed up.

But, the logging contains this message:
19-09-01 14:18:30 WARNING (MainThread) [hassio.store.data] Can’t read /data/addons/git/64f57845/magic_mirror/config.json: required key not provided @ data[‘arch’]. Got None

Could someone tell me how to deinstall magic mirror, please ?

bouwew · September 3, 2019, 11:39am

Sorry, I had to move the improved copy of the repository, it is now here:

bouwew · September 3, 2019, 11:41am

Don’t worry, nothing was installed.
You can just remove the repo and try again with my repo.

bachoo786 · September 3, 2019, 1:00pm

hi guys.

I have a question regarding lovelace and magicmirror. Is it possible to show custom cards of lovelace on magicmirror? has anyone tried it?

thanks.

hi i get this error, anyone with this problem?

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
