Google Photos API changing - MMM-GooglePhotos will stop working soon.

@sdetweil Maybe. I don’t know how the picker stores the relationship to the app and the permissions. If it’s in the browser in some way, launching from a phone might not work. It might need to be from the browser on the MM.
-
@gonzonia it wont be in the browser, they will want to control it at the access level
-
-
@sdetweil so the user wouldn’t have to Re-select after an hour? That can’t be right.
-
@gonzonia so it seems.
-
@sdetweil The way they want it to work is that the user makes the selection, the app gets the items, the session ends. In this case, that would mean the module would have to pull the photos locally which would limit the number of photos available by the amount of space available. I might as well just use a different module and put all my photos somewhere on my network.
-
@gonzonia yes, i use local already. have a 12tb nas drive for photos
-
@sdetweil yeah Google was one of my backups. We are primarily an Apple family but there’s no iCloud module that I’m aware of. I’ll have to do an export or figure something else out.
-
@sdetweil what module are you using for local photos?
-
@Andresleonsalas I use an updated version of MMM-ImagesPhotos
see my fork https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-ImagesPhotos
supports recursive image folder…
I am picky about displaying my photos…
I don’t want cover or contain, I want consistent aspect ratio…
fit vertical or horizontal and adjust the other to the physical size…
