MMM-SORT

Mykle1

Please can anyone help.

Hi,

Your config entry above is not complete. I completed it and tested it. The module fires right up. You can see both the static and rotating options running in my screenshot.

Your complete config entry should look like this:

{
disabled: false,
	module: "MMM-SORT",
	position: "bottom_left",
	config: {
		apiKey: "YOUR API KEY GOES HERE", 
		lat: "54.992562",           // your latitude
		lon: "-1.451674",          // your longitude
		mode: "rotating",             // static or rotating
		LowText: "Low Tide",             // Low tide text. Whatever you want or nothing "",
		HighText: "High Tide",           // High tide text. Whatever you want or nothing "",
		height: "m",               // ft = feet, m = meters (When mode: is rotating)
		useHeader: false,           // false if you don't want a header      
		header: "",                 // Change in config file. useHeader must be true
		maxWidth: "300px",
		animationSpeed: 3000,       // fade speed
		rotateInterval: 20 * 1000,  // seconds (When mode: is rotating)
	}
},

I also see that you made changes to the MMM-SORT.js file. That’s not recommended unless you absolutely know what you want to accomplish there.

I suggest you delete what you have and re-install the module from the repo. Use the config entry that I posted above and I’m sure you will be successful, unless you’ve made other changes that I am not aware of.

P.S. You should keep your API keys private

Hello Mykle1,

Thanks for you help and support. It is very much appreciated.
I am a Hazardous Area Response Team Paramedic in the north of England and our mirror is going on the wall in the crew room as a information screen. The screen is a 60" monitor we liberated from the command room during a recent refurbishment. will send a photo when its up, but this is how it will look. (excuse sniping tool in the middle).

Thanks again,

Andy Scott

Hello Andy, and well met.

I am honored that you and your crew found my tide module worthy enough to be included on your information screen. I would like to thank you for the work that you do. My daughter works in Emergency as a PA and I am a retired New York City Police Officer. I’ve worked with many different response teams so I can appreciate what you do. Please extend my gratitude to your team and be safe.

Highest regards,

Mykle

As per your question via message

I’m going to update the repo with some padding in the css file. You should copy and paste what you like into the custom.css file and make your changes there.

Here is a new picture with a bit of padding between lines. You can adjust to your liking.

Attention: @scott5532

You can now do a git pull in the MMM-SORT directory. to acquire the new css file that contains the fix for the issue you were having. Namely, the space between lines (divs). Kindly transfer the css rules to your custom.css file and make your changes there.

Peace

No kidding. Interesting.

Now that sounds like a worthy purpose. Let’s get you fixed up.

Honestly, I would ditch either the analog clock or the digital one. You’re being redundant in your information. Additionally, I would add a header to the SORT module so that it’s obvious what information is being conveyed in that section of the display.

How so? 'Tis true. :-)
