MMM-google-route Example ?

FruityBebbles

yes… I should have said that my origin is the lat/lng

origin: {"lat": , "lng": }

and my destination is the

address, city, country

but to make things more translucent, here’s my config:

{
module: "MMM-google-route",
position: "top_left",
config: {
	key: "api-key", 
	directionsRequest:{
		origin: {"lat": 40.0583287, "lng": -75.0074246},
		destination: "3401 Civic Center Blvd, Philadelphia, US",
			height: "400px",//default=300px
			width: "400px",//default=300px
			avoidTolls: true,
			showAge: false,
			fontSize: "80%",
			}
		}
	},

@FruityBebbles please use code blocks

anyhow, try this lat/lng for your destination

39.9487306,-75.1965791

i don’t know anything about this module

I thought I did… my bad

anyhow, try this lat/lng for your destination

39.9487306,-75.1965791

I did, but no change…

i don’t know anything about this module

hahah could have fooled me =)
but no, you’ve gotten me closer to having this work than I have on my own so I thank you a lot.

Just thought you should know that it works now…
For some reason

height: "any sized px",
width: "any sized px",
showAge: true/false,
fontSize:  80%

…were all the issues-- not sure why but I figured I’d let anybody who may be reading this know that you should make sure to get your coordinates or whatever “right,” then deal with the fancy stuff, like fontSize and stuff… fwiw

@FruityBebbles but I don’t understand how this is different than what you had before

		height: "400px",//default=300px
		width: "400px",//default=300px
		showAge: false,
		fontSize: "80%"

ok, so it turns out that those four are supposed to be outside of the directionsRequest: {} parameters.
While I had my config as

{
module: "MMM-google-route",
position: "top_left",
config: {
	key: "api-key", 
	**directionsRequest:{**
		origin: {"lat": 40.0583287, "lng": -75.0074246},
		destination: "3401 Civic Center Blvd, Philadelphia, US",
		*height*: "400px",//default=300px
		*width*: "400px",//default=300px
		avoidTolls: true,
		*showAge*: false,
		*fontSize*: "80%",
			**}**
		}
	},

I had to move those four out, which made my config:

{
module: "MMM-google-route",
position: "top_right",
config: {
	*height*: "300px",
	*width*: "300px",
        *showAge*: false,
        *fontSize*: "80%",
	key: "api-key", 
	**directionsRequest:{**
		origin: {"lat": 40.0583287, "lng": -75.0074246}, 
		destination: {"lat": 39.9487306, "lng": -75.1965791}, 
		avoidTolls: true,
			},
		}
	},

the height, width, etc were all in the wrong place-- to me…

@FruityBebbles ah, now i have it… yes they have nothing to do with direction to/from
