MMM-TrafficCal - Dynamically display commutes based on calendar entries

[Bobby]

@RedNax I have some problems with this module. How should be a correct calendar entry? I cannot see anything on the mirror. This ist the only thing in the log:

received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
TRAFFIC URLS: 
received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
TRAFFIC URLS: 
received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
TRAFFIC URLS: 
received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
TRAFFIC URLS: 

Thanks
Bobby

Hi Bobby,

Your config should be something like this:

	{
		module: "MMM-TrafficCal",
		position: "top_left",
		classes: "dimmed medium",
		config: {
			api_key: "API KEY to the calendar holding your trip planning, could optionally be a seperate one",
			origin: "Damrak 1, Amsterdam", // Your default trip origin. Must be an unambiguous google resolvable adress
			tripkey: "MYTRIPS", // A keyword to identify a TrafficCal calendar entry
			chinangeColor: true,
			limitYellow: 25,
			limitRed: 50,
			traffic_model: "pessimistic",
			interval: 120000
		}
	},

    
    An example of an entry:

You’ll have to run a calendar module with the MYTRIPS calendar entries in it. You can optionally hide it using the remote control module.

	{
		module: "calendar",
		header: "Trips",
		position: "top_left",
		fetchInterval: 60000,
		config: {
			maximumNumberOfDays: 1,
			calendars: [
				{
					symbol: "calendar-check-o ",
					url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/YOUR URL TO THE TRIPS CALENDAR",
					maximumNumberOfDays: 1
				}
			],
			titleReplace: {
				"De verjaardag van ": "",
				"'s birthday": ""
			}
		}
	},

Good luck!

@RedNax Thx, for your answer. I have solved my problem, my destination has German “umlaute (ä, ü, ö)” in name. Thus the google request did not clear. This is not utf-8. An other question is, what does ist mean “ipv”?

 mycommute.commute + ' ipv ' + mycommute.noTraffic 

Thanks fpr your help
Bobby

@Bobby Whoops, thats a Dutch abbreveation of ‘instead of’… Should really make that a config item… :S

[RedNax]

@RedNax New version has these strings as config items…
