MMM-RAIN-MAP (new: version 2.x)

Cetax

I think I’m too stupid to get an API key. Are there any instructions in German or can someone help me?

Thanks a lot

greeting

Ok, i think i have a Key… But i see errors…
Have i a wrong Key ?

Is this Key, the right ? “-> Maps JavaScript API”

And i see error on the google Page…

I don´t understand it… Why the Limit is 1 ?

Just wait for the OpenStreetMap support.

Here is a beta branch: https://github.com/jalibu/MMM-RAIN-MAP/tree/feature/OSM

Jalibu

OpenStreetMap support is pushed to master. Please give me feedback, as I did not have the time for
extensively testing.

On my Raspberry Pi I currently have problems with the script when it runs over a longer period of time. I think it causes memory problems and the systems hangs. Does anybody have similar problems?

@Fozi @rxlDavid

Fozi

@Jalibu Yes, I can confirm the memory problems. The module consumes rather quickly a lot of memory and after about 3 hrs the RPi freezes.

Jalibu

@Fozi thanks. I think I found the problem and will solve it by the end of the day.

Jalibu

The memory problem should hopefully be fixed.

Fozi

@Jalibu ok…I just pulled the latest version and just restarted my MM. I’ ll report back if the memory issue improved.

Fozi

@Jalibu There still seems to be a memory issue. I took about one hour until the memory was full and the Pi froze.
I deactivated the module now and restarted the Pi to be sure that no other module causes that problem.

Jalibu

Does anyone else have the problem? I can’t reproduce it anymore.

Nice and working module for me (conf openstreetmap)…Be carefull with timeformat, need no " "

@Fozi @chassain-0 Ah that may be what is crashing my pi recently every day. I’ll try disabling the module…

@lavolp3 i don’t think but you can check…the format was only in 12h

Jalibu

I fixed the timeFormat error. Thank you for your feedback @chassain-0

@Jalibu thank to you. It’s a nice module even if the rain is null in south of france lol

Fozi

@lavolp3 just a question as I have the same issue and @Jalibu and I tried his latest release, but no success on my side.
Which modules do you have activated?
I assume that the module might interfere with another module, but I am not sure which one. I’d like to compare your activated modules with mine and maybe I can find out which one is identical and might cause the conflict. Here’s a list of my modules, which are separated over two pages:

Page1:
newsfeed,
alert,
updatenotification,
MMM-PIR-Sensor,
MMM-AlexaControl,
MMM-MyCalendar,
MMM-page-indicator,
MMM-Pages,
MMM-withings,
MMM-Sonos,
MMM-DarkSkyForecast,
MMM-DWD-WarnWeather,
MMM-MyScoreBoard,
MMM-Podcast2,
2x MMM-PublicTransportHafas,
MMM-google-route,
MMM-RemoteControl,
MMM-GroveGestures,

Page2:
netatmo,
MMM-Tools,
mmm-hue-lights,
MMM-Homematic, .

@Fozi the best way is to add disabled: true at each module one by one and restart mm beetwen

Stoffbeuteluwe

@Jalibu Hello, the module is very good but it only shows the time that has already passed and not the time that is yet to come…
can I change that is showing the next 2 hours

Jalibu

@Stoffbeuteluwe nope, the data provider only serves weather history

rubenix

@Fozi We’ve a MM setup with 10 pages on it (its more a Family panel than a mirror; so useful for us to keep activities, list and routines and important info for a daily basis)

Anyway the modules that matches yours:

default modules:

newsfeed,
alert,
updatenotification --> config disabled: true

Third Party modules:

MMM-AlexaControl,
MMM-Pages & MMM-page-indicator,
MMM-RemoteControl,
MMM-GroveGestures,
MMM-Tools,

Im pretty sure the rpi freezes due to RAIN-MAP animation itself and not because of any module interaction but am not 100% sure.
I’ve updated the module but nothing changes and mirror freezes if I show the RAIN-MAP (got it hidden on start and call it by alexaControl whenever I wanna show it).
If I disabled the module, never freezes (have it on for hours with no problems --> we usually shutdown the rpi when going to bed…If I enabled the module and make it visible on the mirror it freezes at some point (maybe minutes, maybe hours…but it freezes indeed). If I start the mirror (remember default RAIN-MAP not visible) and never show the RAIN-MAP never freezes. If I disable the module (disabled: true) in config cpu usage & temperature on the pi are fine but If I enable it goes up to 40-70% at some stages and temperature goes over 70ºC sometimes…(not good)
I increase value of animationSpeed on module config must say improves rpi performance (I’ve set it @800 and its fine for a longer period and maybe if we’re lucky the pi does not freeze). Could be the zoom in/out feature on module itself…don’t know as its hard to catch a useful log to look at. No error at all on pm2 logs.
Here my newbie contribution; hope we can found something as module looks nice on the Mirror!
I will keep an eye on this topic and, indeed, post it here if find something that helps…
Cheers!
