MMM-MyCommute

@j.e.f.f No sir. Though to be fair, with other modules I didn’t run npm install? Happy to start from a clean slate on my next opportunity to see if it’s necessary again (I’m away for the weekend, sadly).

I’ve just started with my magicmirror project and have most of the modules working, for some reason mmm-mycommute gets stuck on “loading…”. This happens even with the default configuration from the wiki. Any suggestions? Thanks! This is my current configuration(with keys and addresses redacted):

{
  module: 'MMM-MyCommute',
  position: 'top_left',
  config: {
    showHeader: false,
    apikey: '',
    origin: '',
    startTime: '00:00',
    endTime: '23:59',
    hideDays: [4],
    destinations: [
      {
        destination: '',
        label: ''
      },
      {
        destination: '',
        label: '',
        avoid: 'tolls'
      }
    ]
  }
}

@jhermes34 Did you remember to run npm install in the MMM-MyCommute directory? Do you see any errors in the pm2 log (Assuming you’re managing MM with pm2).

@j.e.f.f I did run the npm installer, the pm2 log gives an error about starting mm.sh

@jhermes34 There’s an npm install that you need to run in the MMM-MyCommute directory, ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MyCommute. This shouldn’t (?) affect pm2 at all.

@jhermes34 What’s the error you’re seeing?

hi all,

I have install MMM-MyCommute executed npm install in folder
i think my config is good,
but when i starting my magic mirror the module don’t start
all my module works great but this one can’t start
can you help me please.

j.e.f.f

@Fonfon Do you see any errors in the pm2 logs? Can you send me your config? I’ll give it a try. (Hide your API key)

@j.e.f.f thanks jeff
when mm starting there is no error
sorry but i d’ont knows how get logs
this my config:

{
module: ‘MMM-Mycommute’,
position: ‘top_left’,
config: {
showHeader: true,
headerText: ‘Traffic’,
api_key: ‘API’,
origin: ‘my home’,
startTime: ‘00:00’,
endTime: ‘23:59’,
hideDays: [0,6],
destinations: [
{
destination: ‘myworkplace’,
label: ‘Bureau’,
mode: ‘driving’,
color: ‘#82E5AA’
}
]
}
},

j.e.f.f

@Fonfon OK there are two problems with your config:

module: 'MMM-Mycommute' needs a capital C, like follows:

module: 'MMM-MyCommute'

Next, the property name for the API key is apikey not api_key

Give those a try and see if it fixes your issue.

Also, the showHeader config isn’t needed any more. If you want a header, add it to your config in the normal way, like so:

    { 
      module: 'MMM-MyCommute',
      position: 'top_left',
      header: "Commute",  // ---- here ----
      config: {
        headerText: 'Traffic',
        apikey: '...',
        origin: '...',
        startTime: '00:00',
        endTime: '23:59',
        hideDays: [0,6],
        destinations: [
          {
            destination: '...',
            label: 'Bureau',
            mode: 'driving',
            color: '#82E5AA'
          }
        ]
      }
    },

If you don’t want one, don’t specify that property.
