MAGIC MIRROR MODULES CODE

There exists a library called Hygen () that facilitates rapid JavaScript code generation. In order to help other programmers and especially people new to Magic Mirror module development, I would propose a code scaffolding aid. I really like your project and I have created modules myself as a programmer. Make an overview of the supported (tested) hardware and operating systems.ДЇeel free to share your ideas and feedback!.

MAGIC MIRROR MODULES SOFTWARE

Make an overview of the hard- and software requirements.

This should reflect the procedure without an installer/updater, but it should also mention the available third party installers/updaters.

MAGIC MIRROR MODULES HOW TO

Improve documentation on how to install and update.

Create separate documentation site and repo.

Implement handler for incompatible modules.

Where necessary, replace shell code with javascript code.

Cleanup folders (remove /installers & /splashscreen and remove all root.

Separate Client & Serveronly commands as regular npm commands: npm run start & npm run server.

Remove installer scripts (make sure an external repository is available as a replacement).

The to do list is not set in stone, and could change based on the feedback in this issue. EDIT: Provisional TO DO ListД«ased on the discussion below, I made a provisional to do list which could be the base for the simplification of this repository. Please let me know what you think with an open mind. Since this project would have never been such a success without the help of the community, I want to discuss this approach before taking any action. Which will help people to learn and understand these commands.

Install/Run/Update using default commands: npm install, git pull, etc.

With the new approach I think it's good to set a few guidelines to which the future versions should adhere: The added benefit of this approach is that the release schedule of the above features is no longer tied to the quarterly release schedule of MagicMirrorВІ.

MAGIC MIRROR MODULES UPDATE

As an install and update replacement, we need to write a good manual. Of course, we won't take out these features as long as no other solutions are in place. In my opinion, the following parts could initially be taken out of the core repo, and taken over by other repo's:

While does a great job to maintain the core application (OctoPrint), the packaged Rasberry Pi image (OctoPi) is maintained in a different repo by a different user we use that same approach there are a lot of things we can take out the core repo, and let other users start their own repo's to accomplish the same features while separating concerns. One example I like to mention is OctoPrint/OctoPi. Looking at other OS projects, there are some beautiful examples on how the project can be focused at what it does best. (Opposed to v1, which was a combination of languages like PHP, Javascript en in some cases Python). I also noted that the amount of bash code is increasing, while the main intention of version 2 was to try to do everything in 1 program language: javascript. With the current complexity, this project is slowly moving away from this. Getting their feet wet in javascript and software development in general (see manifesto). The reason I open sourced MagicMirrorВІ was because it is a perfect starter project for newcomers. I am very grateful for that! Unfortunately, this comes with a downside: the application gets a lot more complicated. Since I open sourced MagicMirrorВІ, I have received many awesome pull requests adding a lot of nice features to the Magic Mirror core. If we receive enough donations we might even be able to free up some working hours and spend some extra time improving the MagicMirrorВІ core. Please consider a donation to help us cover the ongoing costs like webservers and email services. That doesn't mean we don't need any money.

MagicMirrorВІ focuses on a modular plugin system and uses Electron as an application wrapper. MagicMirrorВІ is built by the creator of the original MagicMirror with the incredible help of a growing community of contributors. With a growing list of installable modules, the MagicMirrorВІ allows you to convert your hallway or bathroom mirror into your personal assistant. MagicMirrorВІ is an open source modular smart mirror platform.
