      @RedNax This is potentially a very cool module, I’m still working on incorporating it into my mirror (I’m not a coder so takes me a while) but I did have a question as to whether or not I could change the module to have a fixed destination rather than to look up from a calendar?

          Hi, some days ago I try to use your module. I installed everything like you write at your readme file. I create a new calender. But It didn’t work. After some try, I read that it use a new function in the calender module. So I try to change to the develop tree. But after that my magic mirror didn’t start again. So I copy a previous version I have saved and the mirror started normally.

              A fantastic enhancement on the origional by the looks of it, thanks for taking the time RedNax.

              Question, all installed and configured.

              Apart from https://www.npmjs.com/package/request (npm install request)
              Any recommended method for installation on a mac?

              Thanks

                  @RedNax I have some problems with this module. How should be a correct calendar entry? I cannot see anything on the mirror. This ist the only thing in the log:

                  received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
                  TRAFFIC URLS: 
                  received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
                  TRAFFIC URLS: 
                  received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
                  TRAFFIC URLS: 
                  received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE
                  TRAFFIC URLS: 
                  
                  

                  Thanks

                    Hi Bobby,

                    Your config should be something like this:

                    	{
                    		module: "MMM-TrafficCal",
                    		position: "top_left",
                    		classes: "dimmed medium",
                    		config: {
                    			api_key: "API KEY to the calendar holding your trip planning, could optionally be a seperate one",
                    			origin: "Damrak 1, Amsterdam", // Your default trip origin. Must be an unambiguous google resolvable adress
                    			tripkey: "MYTRIPS", // A keyword to identify a TrafficCal calendar entry
                    			chinangeColor: true,
                    			limitYellow: 25,
                    			limitRed: 50,
                    			traffic_model: "pessimistic",
                    			interval: 120000
                    		}
                    	},
                    
                        
                        An example of an entry:
                    

                    0_1486889620335_upload-cccf478f-b636-4ff2-962e-f4491bda83f8

                    You’ll have to run a calendar module with the MYTRIPS calendar entries in it. You can optionally hide it using the remote control module.

                    	{
                    		module: "calendar",
                    		header: "Trips",
                    		position: "top_left",
                    		fetchInterval: 60000,
                    		config: {
                    			maximumNumberOfDays: 1,
                    			calendars: [
                    				{
                    					symbol: "calendar-check-o ",
                    					url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/YOUR URL TO THE TRIPS CALENDAR",
                    					maximumNumberOfDays: 1
                    				}
                    			],
                    			titleReplace: {
                    				"De verjaardag van ": "",
                    				"'s birthday": ""
                    			}
                    		}
                    	},
                    

                    Good luck!

                      @RedNax Thx, for your answer. I have solved my problem, my destination has German “umlaute (ä, ü, ö)” in name. Thus the google request did not clear. This is not utf-8. An other question is, what does ist mean “ipv”?

                       mycommute.commute + ' ipv ' + mycommute.noTraffic 
                      

                      Thanks fpr your help
                      Bobby
