      @requiemmg yes, I got a warning too from google, 4 mirrors, asking every 5 minutes, the api query counts add up fast… 8,000 calls a week…

        Okay, so no way to limit API calls? Would it be possible to call every 10 minutes or so and only every 60 minutes in the “non-active” time?

          @requiemmg if someone changes the code, sure. can do almost anything. I support another mirror app which does provide for a interested time period. (rush hour), and doesn’t call API outside that time period if set

            Okay, played around a bit. Set the module to show times only from 5am to 5pm. And I added a “pollFrequency: 15 * 60 * 1000,” to my config.
            While the first one works (the module disappears at night), the second one does not seem to work:

            This is the Traffic from the last 2 days. You can see the requests are paused last night. I made changes to the poll frequency yesterday in the afternoon, no change.

            The module used up nearly all of my €300 starting balance. I wonder if this will go on like this.

            API calls in the last 48 hours:

            API calls in the last ONE hour:
            d0d5561d-77e9-4093-b959-e32335b19ec5-grafik.png

            Which I do not understand: No errors. Poll Frequency of every 15 Minutes. 2 Mirrors with 4 destinations each. So 4*8=24 API calls/hour would be what I expect to see…

              @requiemmg 352/hour is 5.87 per minute, about once every 12 seconds… once every 24 seconds both of 2 machines.

              1 looked at the code, 1 api request per destination.

                Raised an issue. Seems like the problem comes with the use of MMM-Pages, so on every reload of the page, the module is loaded and the requests are sent again, even if the data is still up to date. @qistoph was so nice to make a fork to address this issue.

                  @requiemmg yep, separate instance on every page.

                    This makes it clear why I had about 50.000 requests, which made my $400 starting balance void…well, with the new fork and some config modifications, this is much better.

                      @requiemmg What I have found is if you run the module in the fixed section of MMM-pages it only does the calls every so often as you set them to i.e. the MMM-Openinghours module I run in fixed as I refresh it every 4hrs.

                        @mumblebaj Right, but in my design it doesn’t fit in this section. Anyhow, @qistoph made a test fork (https://github.com/qistoph/MMM-MyCommute/tree/issue17) which only makes requests if the data is outdated (=longer than set pollFrequency). See the issue thread (https://github.com/qistoph/MMM-MyCommute/issues/17) for further details
