MagicMirror
##Configuration
The super magic interface of my personal Magic Mirror. More information about this project can be found on my blog.
Runs as a php script on a web server with basically no external dependencies. Can use socket.io for XBEE integration, but isn't required for basic functionality.
Modify js/config.js to change some general variables (language, wather location, compliments, news feed RSS) and calendar.php to add your own ICS calendar
##Code
###main.js
This file initiates the separate pieces of functionality that will appear in the view. It also includes various utility functions that are used to update what is visible.
###Calendar
Parsing functionality for the Calendar that retrieves and updates the calendar based on the interval set at the top of the calendar.js file. This was actually a straight pull from the original main.js file but the parsing code may deserve an upgrade.
###Compliments
Functionality related to inserting compliments into the view and rotating them based on a specific interval set at the top of the compliments.js file.
###News
Takes an array of news feeds (or a single string) from the config file and retrieves each one so that it can be displayed in a loop based on the interval set at the top of the news.js file.
###Time
Updates the time on the screen on one second interval (I think).
###Version
Checks the git version and refreshes if a new version has been pulled.
###Weather
Takes the user's inserted location, language, unit type, and OpenWeatherMap API key and grabs the five day weather forecast from OpenWeatherMap.
