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”

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.

@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.

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.

@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…
