Was looking into that too.
It looks like v1 is not working anymore:

$ curl -H 'X-Auth-Token:(apikey)' 'http://api.football-data.org/v1/competitions/'
<html>
<head><title>504 Gateway Time-out</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>504 Gateway Time-out</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx/1.6.2</center>
</body>
</html>

Api v2 does work:

But unfortunately the v2 commands have a new syntax and probably different output, so the code would need a change.

The changes are probably for the better:

but until someone spends some spare-time, we will have to do without it.

Yes that explains a lot. Now i understand that its not working. would be nice if the author would update it.

Or, you can fork the repo, make the corrections yourself, and submit a PR to the author. :-)

evroom · Jul 23, 2018, 9:09 PM

Maybe not nice for the author of MMM-Soccer, but I switched to MMM-SoccerLiveScore.
Have to wait for the competition to start to see how it really works, but the matches for August are already displayed.

I modified the api commands in MMM-Soccer to be compliant with v2, but could not get the parsing right.
Am a novice to JavaScript, CSS and JSON, so that was to be expected.

strawberry 3.141 · Jul 24, 2018, 6:16 PM

@evroom I would be more than happy, if you could try to investigate your parsing issues. In case I will find some time before my longer holidays in the states, I will try to change the api myself.

evroom · Jul 24, 2018, 8:30 PM

@strawberry-3-141 ,

I will give it a try in the next days. Might have some questions though. As said, I am a novice to JavaScript and JSON, but fit in Perl. For the moment the biggest challenge is to have a programming / test environment setup. MM is running on a Pi and perhaps it is better to have a MM instance running on my MacBook. Or even better, to be able to test the module out of MM, if possible. Will report back asap on my progress, if any.

evroom · Jul 27, 2018, 3:51 PM

It looks like I mixed up things.

You have:
MMM-soccer: uses api.football-data.org - api v1
MagicMirror-FootballLeagues: api.football-data.org - api v1
MMM-SoccerLiveScore: uses www.ta4-images.de

Modules using api.football-data.org - api v1 - are not working and that leaves MMM-SoccerLiveScore as the only module working at this moment.

Now … I promised to have a look at MMM-Soccer, which is MMM-soccer (small detail), to see if I can get v2 working.
So I started with github (never used it before) and got MM working on my MacBook.
Stupidly I got a copy of MMM-SoccerLiveScore and was surprised to see it working.
Only then I realised that my comments were based on MagicMirror-FootballLeagues and not on MMM-Soccer.
Not even speaking about MMM-SoccerLiveScore.

Probably the heat-wave melted my brains, or what was left of it.

What to do ?

On the one hand we have MMM-SoccerLiveScore.
Install it. Configure it. Run it. Go with it.
Nothing needed.
I have it running myself.

Then we have MMM-soccer and MagicMirror-FootballLeagues.
Both need to be adapted to run with api v2.
MagicMirror-FootballLeagues, owner @master117, looks to be more up-to-date and a better start than MMM-soccer.
It says to be a spin.off of MMM-SoccerLiveScore, but I do not know exactly why.
And I do not know if an adapted MagicMirror-FootballLeagues will have more possibilities over the other(s).

I might give it a try, just for the fun of it.

@evroom I never heard of footballleagues.

When I’m correct then soccerlivescroe display the matches and this module display the standings so the modules follow different approaches.
