MMM-Button

This an extension for the MagicMirror. It can monitor a button click and change for example the visibility of some of your modules (at the moment just works with my MMM-Podcast module). Special thanks goes to Paviro as this module is heavily based on his PIR-Sensor module.

Installation

Navigate into your MagicMirror's modules folder and execute git clone https://github.com/ptrbld/MMM-Button.git. A new folder will appear navigate into it.
Execute npm install to install the node dependencies.

	}
]
