Pi-hole API presenter

[lali]

I use Pi-hole on my mirror-pi. And they give a read data API.
It would be nifty to be able to present the data on the mirror.

@VladoPortos same here, but on a Windows PC if i go to the MM url, the pihole stat show perfectly.
could it be a raspbian browser issue?

@bmarofsky Hey guys… any luck on getting this to work? I’m seeing the same issues and no errors in my logs.

got it work.
Check if your clone from git is correct from up an lowercase…
for me it was cloned to
mmm-pihole-stats
instead of
MMM-pihole-stats
also check that in the config style.

it only showed something for me, after setting
showSources: false,

Maybe it helps someone

changed also some stats to see the more interesting stuff

[barnosch]

oh i forgot something…
i also added this one at the pi server

In file /var/www/html/admin/scripts/pi-hole/php/auth.php add your host in the array of allow hosts:

$AUTHORIZED_HOSTNAMES = array( $ipv4, $ipv6, str_replace(array("[","]"), array("",""), $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]), "pi.hole", "localhost", "your.hostname.com" );

Hi,

Thanks for the tip barnosch, adding the hostname - for me it took adding the ip address of the magic mirror raspberry pi (where “your.hostname.com” is in the example line) - to that file on the pi-hole raspberry pi did the trick.

However, I now have the same issue that others have reported of this module causing the mirror to freeze and/or crash after a few hours, maybe a day of uptime. I’ve disabled it and everything is working again, but does anyone know why this module causes this, or any likely fixes?

Cheers

I was also having this issue where magic mirror was not showing status.

i made silly mistake of copying the url which i access in browser but later i noticed that we need to copy the url with “api.php” in end of the address which fix the issue for me.
