MMM-Strava

Great module! I tried to implement but my module is stuck at “Loading…”

Guessing it has something to do with the API creation. I have my athlete ID that I see when I look at my Strava profile.

I ended up with a Client ID, Client Secret and Access Token when I created the API. Guessing I should be using only the Access Token?

Also, when I created the API, I had to put in a website and authorization callback domain. Not sure if these have an affect but I used the internal IP for the raspberry pi for both. Is that right? Thanks!

Hi

Did you get a resolution to your issue as I seem to have similar issue with module stuck at Loading…

When I look at the terminal window I am getting error:

Error performing request: Unauthorized. Access Token will be reset.
Error while fetching new athlete stats.

Look at code this is a 401 error.

I am getting confused as I thought the Strava API key was public but from this error it looks as though it wants to authorise API Key.

As this is an old post I will create a new post this evening with some more detail.

Hi Ian

Can you help as I think I am getting confused.

I carried out the following steps:

Imported MMM-Strava into my modules folder.
Logged into my Strava account and navigated ->Settings->My API Application
Created an application icon
Completed fields, Application Name = MyData, Category = Other, Website = https://Strava.com, Authorization Callback Domain = 127.0.0.1
Click update button
Copied Client ID and Your Access Token (?) (permissions: public)
Update MagicMirror config.js with Client ID and Your Access Token
Restarted MagicMirror

When MagicMirror displays the Strava modules says Loading… and looking at the terminal window I can see errors:

Error performing request: Unauthorized. Access Token will be reset.
Error while fetching new athlete stats.

Which looks to be a 401 error from code that, access token has not been authorised.

Can anybody point me to what I am doing wrong.

Hi,

sounds you took the client id from the strava api page as input for strava_id of the module?

Input of strava_id: https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/articles/216928797-Where-do-i-find-my-Strava-ID-

Hi

Firstly thank you for your reply.

You are correct I used the client id and when I replaced this with the strava id as your link described all works great.

Thanks again.

Hello,
I have the problems that with the following config the module is always “loading…”.

Can someone help me?

		{
			module: 'MMM-Strava',
			position: 'top_left',
			config: {
				strava_id: 'xxx1, xxx2',
				access_token: 'xxx1, xxx2',
				activities: 'run',
				athlete_text: 'Tine, Basti',
			    auto_rotate: 'true'
				 }
		},

karsten13

try it with the missing brackets:

		{
			module: 'MMM-Strava',
			position: 'top_left',
			config: {
				strava_id: ['xxx1', 'xxx2'],
				access_token: ['xxx1', 'xxx2'],
				activities: ['run'],
				athlete_text: ['Tine', 'Basti'],
			    auto_rotate: 'true'
				 }
		},

Dicous

Unfortunately, no solution

karsten13

your setup works for me, changed only strava_id’s and access_token’s.
Did you put every single strava_id and every single access_token in single quotes as provided in my example? In your post you put 2 things in one single quote …
Other possibilities: Wrong strava data (id/token)? Did you read the documentation how to get strava_id?
Did you take a look in the logs?
If I test it with your testdata xxx I find these lines in the logs:

Error performing request: Unauthorized. Access Token will be reset.
Error while fetching new athlete stats.

Dicous

It works. Despite control I had the wrong API sorry

Hi guys, i am using the Strava-Module and over the Winter i am doing a lot of indoor-cycling with Zwift. I was wondering if it is possible to integrate “virtual cycling” into the module and if it’s possible, then how. Hope anyone can answer this. I don`t need the “swim” anyway, so i would like to interchange it with “virtual ride”

ianperrin

@zerodegree79

You should be able to hide swim activities by adding the following to your config

activities: ["ride", "run"]

Adding other activity types will need some investigation of the Strava API as ActivityStats only returns totals for the three activity types currently available.

I need to look at the module again shortly as there is an change to the API which requires a different authentication mechanism so I’ll try an pick this up then

Thanks for your reply. I know that i can hide “swim”, but just wanted to change it to “virtual ride”. So i just wait until you have looked at the API.
Thanks in advance for your support.

ianperrin

@zerodegree79 great - wasn’t sure from your comment whether you’d spotted the option on the config.

After a quick look, I’ve pushed a change to the module which includes virtual activities in the chart stats. Take a look and let me know if this works as expected.

@ianperrin hi, thanks for the fast response. I tried to update, but now it is stuck in loading activities. I changed the MMM-Strava.js. What else do i need to edit? Below is my config:

 // Default module config.
    defaults: {
        strava_id: ['XXXXXX'],                      // List of strava_id's, could get this from current athlete - https://strava.github.io/api/v3/athlete/#get-details
        access_token: ['XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'],                   // List of acces_token's (corresponding to the strava_id's), see https://www.strava.com/settings/api
        athlete_text: [''],                   // List of athlete_text's (corresponding to the strava_id's), will be diplayed instead of ativity_text
        mode: 'table',                        // Possible values "table", "chart"
        elevation: true,                     // Shows elevation in "table" mode
        activities: ["ride", "run", "virtual"],  // Possible values "ride", "run", "swim"
        period: "all",                     // Possible values "recent", "ytd", "all"
        auto_rotate: true,                   // Rotate stats through each period starting from specified period
        locale: config.language,
        units: config.units,
        fade: false,
        fadePoint: 0.1,                       // Start on 1/4th of the list.
        reloadInterval: 5 * 60 * 1000,        // every 5 minutes
        updateInterval: 600 * 1000,            // 10 seconds
        animationSpeed: 10 * 1000,           // 2.5 seconds
        debug: false,                         // Set to true to enable extending logging
    },

No idea whats wrong. Thanks in advance.

@zerodegree79

You should avoid editing the module files and place your configuration in the config.js file - check the readme file for installation, update and configuration notes

Once you’ve reverted your changes to the module files, pull the latest version of the module and make sure config.js is correctly configured.

There is no need to add anything special to the config to include virtual activities as these will be rolled up into the ride and run totals in the chart like the table mode and your dashboard on the Strava website

zerodegree79

@ianperrin thanks for your help, changed back and now it`s working fine. Just one Question left. Is there a way to “isolate” the virtual rides? To show them separately in the charts?

zerodegree79

HEy @ianperrin, since Strava changed their API- Refreshing, i need to put in the Access Token manually every 6 hours. Can you change this in your module? Here is the API Handbook from Strava. I have no idea how this wors, so maybe you can fix it. https://developers.strava.com/docs/authentication/#Refresh expired

Thanks in advance.

ctatos

@zerodegree79 I temporarily solved the problem with an external python script found at https://github.com/hozn/stravalib . The script retrieves a newly generated access token every 4-5h and find/replaces it in the config.js file. I then have a crontab that recycles the Magic Mirror.

There must be a better way, but I can’t complain for now…

ianperrin

@ctatos could you send me a pm with details of the script and cron setup you are using?
