This a module for Magic Mirror² to act based on button presses via GPIO. It is capable of connecting multiple buttons at once, which can be individually configured. It is basically a generalized version of the Button module, original idea comes from @PtrBld. However it only sends out notifications to other modules.
For example this can be used to send notifications to the following modules:
Clone this repository in your modules folder, and install dependencies:
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules # adapt directory if you are using a different one
git clone https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Buttons.git
cd MMM-Buttons
npm install # this can take a whileAdd the module to your modules array in your config.js.
Below is a simple example (needs Remote Control installed), with two buttons conneted, on pins 24 and 25. One switches on the display on a short press, and switches it off on a long press. The other does not do anything on a short press, but shuts down the system after keeping it pressed for 3 seconds with an explanatory user alert.
{
module: 'MMM-Buttons',
config: {
buttons: [
{
pin: 25,
name: "monitor_control",
longPress: {
notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
payload: {action: "MONITOROFF"}
},
shortPress: {
notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
payload: {action: "MONITORON"}
}
},
{
pin: 24,
name: "power",
longPress: {
title: "Power off",
message: "Keep pressed for 3 seconds to shut down",
imageFA: "power-off",
notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
payload: {action: "SHUTDOWN"}
},
shortPress: undefined
}
]
}
},
Here is full documentation of options for the modules configuration:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
buttons |
An array of button configurations. See Button Configuration below. Default is [] (no buttons registered). |
minShortPressTime |
Minimum duration to trigger a short press in ms. Default is 0. |
maxShortPressTime |
Maximum duration to trigger a short press in ms. Default is 500. |
minLongPressTime |
Minimum time needed to trigger a long press in ms. Default is 3000. Any press duration between maxShortPressTime and minLongPressTime does not do anything. |
bounceTimeout |
Duration to ignore bouncing (unintentional doubble press on the button). |
Each button configuration is an object with the following properties:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
pin |
Pin number of the button input (use BCM numbering). |
name |
Name of the button for easier identification and log output. |
longPress |
Choose what notification to send on a long press. See Notification Configuration below. Use undefined if nothing should trigger. |
shortPress |
Choose what notification to send on a short press. See Notification Configuration below. Use undefined if nothing should trigger. |
Each notification configuration is an object with the following properties:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
notification |
Notification name. |
payload |
Notification payload. Can be anything, for example a string or an object. |
title, message, and imageFA |
Optional (only for long press notifications): If you want to display a message before executing set its options here. See Alert documentation for their meaning. |
