@sdetweil Yep, I added a card and activated the account last night. Was hoping it would sync up overnight but same issue this morning.

[sdetweil]

@spoonek use the menu to get the dev window open. or start with

npm start dev

if u normally use pm2, do pm2 stop 0
before the npm start

[sdetweil]

@spoonek no sync time. it’s immediate.

OK, that is awesome! Thanks for the tip! So maybe I need to generate a new api key and use that?

[2020-08-20 09:07:14.680] [LOG] MMM-MyCommute: You must use an API key to authenticate each request to Google Maps Platform APIs. For additional information, please refer to http://g.co/dev/maps-no-account

@spoonek u didn’t list the maps api I the list of services above

 Google Maps Platform APIs

[spoonek]

Yep, got that one already. :(

[sdetweil]

@spoonek so, then, passing the key is a problem,

so it might be the item name in config. u can specify both,
and u got the right string for the API key from Google.

which GitHub module are u using?

from the module folder do,
git remote -v

OK, I’ll add apikey and apiKey. I just generated a new key as well. Billing acct is active too.

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MyCommute $ git remote -v

@sdetweil Looking good now after adding both apikey and apiKey. Most likely me generating a new key as well. Thanks for the dev tips! Will be useful for me down the road.

[sdetweil]

@spoonek his code uses all lowercase apikey

@spoonek also, if you turn on ssh server on pi, and use winscp or bitvise ssh client, you can double click edit with your favorite windows editor (I use notepad++ for code alignment and indentation)
and still issue commands thru the ssh window…

if u set

address:"0.0.0.0", 
ipWhitelist:[],

in config.js, then you can connect to mm with your windows chrome browser and do all the dev work there too…
