This version of the Magic Mirror software focusses on a modular plugin system. Besides that, the Magic Mirror software now also uses [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/), so no more webserver or browser installs necessary.

**WARNING!** This version is in a *very* early stage. It is **not** completed yet. **Please** use the master branch.

## Usage 

#### Automatic Installer (Raspberry Pi Only!)

Execute the following command on your Raspberry Pi to install MagicMirror²:
````
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/v2-beta/installers/raspberry.sh | bash
````

#### Manual Installation

1. Download and install the latest Node.js version.
2. Clone the repository and check out the beta branch: `git clone -b v2-beta https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror`
3. Enter the repository: `cd ~/MagicMirror`
4. Install and run the app: `npm install && npm start` (You may have to restart your terminal before this works!)

**Important:** `npm start` does **not** work via SSH, use `DISPLAY=:0 nohup npm start &` instead. This starts the mirror on the remote display.

#### Server only

In some cases, you want to start the application without an actual app window. In this case, exectute the following command from the MagicMirror folder: `node serveronly`. This will start the server, after which you can open the application in your browser of choice.

## Configuration

1. Duplicate `config/config.js.sample` to `config/config.js`.
2. Modify your required settings.

## Todo List

Here is a list of various things that still have to be implemented or changed.

- [ ] Allow show/hide animations to animate the height. This way, the other modules won't jump around.
- [ ] Allow vertical centering of alerts.
- [ ] Rewrite the [alert](modules/default/alert) module in vanilla JavaScript.
- [ ] Write all the documentation.
