MMM-MyCommute - API Calls and Quota

[lavolp3]

@ooom416354 Look into line 173 of the MMM-MyCommute.js

  getData: function() {

    //only poll if in window
    if ( this.isInWindow( this.config.startTime, this.config.endTime, this.config.hideDays ) ) {
      //build URLs

Above that you can find the isInWindow()-function that checks if current time is between start and end time.

@lavolp3 Thanks so much for the details!

I’m the author of this plugin and I can confirm that the module will not poll for data outside the window you set. I designed it this way specifically to deal with Google’s quota.

@hermlam I haven’t looked at this code for a long time and it’s quite possible this module no longer works properly. I believe there are newer forks you can try that are currently under active development.

@hermlam I am having this same issue, at least since the most recent MM update. Have you found a solution yet?
