The WallberryTheme module re-themes MagicMirror² to look like a beautiful photo-box wall display. It adds a new font, styles, and periodically changing background image pulled from Unsplash.com.

The WallberryTheme also comes packaged with two companion modules for displaying the time (WB-clock) and weather (WB-weather).

REQUIRED API KEYS:

• A (free) Unsplash API key is required and can be obtained from Unsplash.com.
• For the weather module, a (free) DarkSky API key is required and can be obtained at DarkSky.net.

WallberryTheme has new options for dealing with light text on bright background images!

• The addBackgroundFade option allows you to add soft gradient backgrounds to the top and bottom regions of your magic mirror, providing more contrast for the modules in those regions. These gradients use Unsplash's color data to automatically shift to the general color hue of the photo, so they blend better with the image.

• The autoDimOn feature auto-detects bright images and automatically dims them, ensuring bright images don't wash out your text and dark images remain vibrant.

No background fade, auto dim set to off:

With addBackgroundFade and autoDimOn (on their default settings):

To use this module and its companion modules:

1. Copy the WallberryTheme folder to your MagicMirror/modules directory
2. Add the modules to the modules array in the config/config.js file like in the following example:

modules: [
  // Base WallberryTheme adds new font, styles, and a rotating background image pulled from Unsplash.com
  {
    module: "WallberryTheme",
    position: "fullscreen_below", // Required Position
    config: {
      unsplashAccessKey: "Your Unsplash API Key", // REQUIRED
      collections: "2589108" // optional - leave empty for a random photo
    }
  },
  // WB-clock adds local time (Optional Module)
  {
    module: "WallberryTheme/WB-clock",
    position: "top_bar", // highly suggest using top_bar position
    config: {
      localCityName: "Seattle", // optional
      otherCities: [
      	{name: "DC", timezone: "US/Eastern"}, // optional
      	{name: "Anchorage", timezone: "US/Alaska"} // optional
      ]
    }
  },
  // WB-weather adds weather via DarkSky API (Optional Module)
  {
    module: "WallberryTheme/WB-weather",
    position: "bottom_bar",  // Highly suggested location
    config: {
      // See "Configuration options" for more information.
      darkSkyApiKey: "Your DarkSky API key", // REQUIRED
      latitude:   47.603230, // REQUIRED
      longitude: -122.330276 // REQUIRED
    }
  }
]

The following properties of WallberryTheme can be configured. For more information on how to configure the WB-clock and WB-weather modules see their individual README files.

Option	Type	Description
unsplashAccessKey	String	Your Unsplash API access key. Sign up for free at https://unsplash.com/developers. Demo accounts are allowed 50 API requests per hour. This value is REQUIRED
collections	String	A comma-separated list of Unsplash collection IDs that photos should be pulled from. Collection IDs can be found in the URL of the collection, shown in the highlighted part of this screenshot: Example: "1538150,162213" Default value: "" (no collection, theme will use a random Unsplash photo)
queries	Array	A list of queries to search for on Unsplash. When multiple queries are specified, one gets randomly picked every refresh. Example: ["cars", "new york", "black cat"] Default value: []
updateInterval	Number	How often the photo should change (Milliseconds). Default value: 300000 (5 minutes)
orientation	String	What screen orientation photos should be optimized for. Possible values: "portrait", "landscape", or "squarish" Default value: "portrait"
resizeForScreen	Boolean	Whether a photo should be resized to fit the screen. Possible values: true (resize photo) or false (use photo at full dimensions) Default value: true
backgroundOpacity	Number	Controls the darkness of the background photo. Possible values: Any number from 0.0 (black screen) to 1 (fully bright image) E.G.: 0.5 would be the background at half brightness Default value: 1
brightImageOpacity	Number	Controls the darkness of bright photos (determined by autoDimOn). Only used when autoDimOn is true. Possible values: Any number from 0.0 (black screen) to 1 (fully bright image) Default value: 0.85
autoDimOn	Boolean	Automatically darkens bright photos to the value set by brightImageOpacity. Possible values: true (on) or false (off) Default value: true
addBackgroundFade	Array	Adds darker gradient backgrounds to the top bar region and/or bottom bar regions of MagicMirror (helps with readability for bright or busy background images). Possible values: "top" will add a gradient background to the top bar region, "bottom" will add a gradient background to the bottom bar region. Set to an empty list to remove all gradients. Default value: ["top", "bottom"]
clearCacheOnStart	Boolean	Clears Electron's cache on MagicMirror startup, preventing an issue where Electron would sometimes encounter a CORS error when trying to load a previously cached background image (see this issue here for details). Possible values: true (on) or false (off) Default value: true
