MMM-Random Fact

It’s odd that noone else seems to have the translation problem.

However, I have just pushed a PR including a promise.catch function in case translation does not work.
This module still only works with the “manipulated” google-translate-api" for me.

Love your module, @cowboysdude . Many great facts received in recent months.

@cowboysdude
I’m afraid the link is broken in your module.
Directly visiting http://www.fayd.org/api/fact.xml redirects to a facebook page.

Node_helper.js returns a promise rejection because there’s no body element to be fetched.
Can you please check?

@lavolp3 Thank you!! That is very interesting and I will look into that right now!!! Will let you know.

I looked…looks like I’ll have to rewrite parts of it and I will and repost as soon as it’s done…later tonight :)

@lavolp3 I have it working… it’ll be a day or so to upload it as I do have one very strange error that I want to correct :)

@Stoffbeuteluwe Not sure why it’s working here… so if you can PM me and I’ll have you try something to see if it’s the api or something else. Thanks

@cowboysdude Dude you’re ignoring all the debugging!
(After including debug logs) I got the response code 503 from the API

I guess my pre-posters have a similar experience.
