Magic Mirror Module to count down to a specific date

MMM-CountDown

This is a module for the MagicMirror² which can count down the days to a date/event.

I've never written anything with Node.js before, so hopefully this isn't a total mess, if it is - feel free to lend a hand :)

Using the module

To use this module, add the following configuration block to the modules array in the config/config.js file:

var config = {
    modules: [
        {
            module: 'MMM-CountDown',
            config: {
                // See configuration options
            }
        }
    ]
}

Configuration options

Option	Description
position	Required Where do you want to place the counter (use standard magicmirror positions)
event	Required Name of event to count down to (displayed above counter)
date	Required Date to count down to (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS)
showHours	Decide whether or not to display the hours. Default is true
showMinutes	Decide whether or not to display the minutes. Default is true
showSeconds	Decide whether or not to display the seconds. Default is true
customInterval	Change the update interval which will help reduce load if you are only showing specific time metrics. Default is 1000

hoursLabel	Choose how you wish to display your Hours label. Default is h
minutesLabel	Choose how you wish to display your Minutes label. Default is m

If either of the above are missing, the module will count down to the New Millenium (3000-01-01)
