2.0.0: Update dropbox APIs
1.0.1: Update Dropbox calls
Dropbox's API changed, so filesGetThumbnailBatch
no longer returns a file's media_info
(which includes width, height, location, etc).
Instead I'm forced to do individual calls to filesGetMetadata
to get this data - sucky.
Initial release
The mmm-dropbox
module is a MagicMirror addon.
This module takes images from a Dropbox folder, scales & formats them nicely, and then displays them in organized rows on your Magic Mirror.
This module has a very specific target audience - my wife. She wanted an easy way for her & our daughter to upload photos of our cat to Dropbox and then see them on her mirror. So ... if you're looking for a module with endless configurations, tons of design options and the ability to handle videos, well, this isn't it. Sorry.
What this module does allow you to do, however, is to:
- pick a Dropbox folder to load images (

) from - control how many rows of images you'd like to see
- control the base number of images you'd like to see per row
- select whether the images are randomly sorted or displayed newest first
- gaze in amazement at endless cat photos nicely lined up next to each other
