[MMM-JaST] Just another Stock Ticker (new: version 2.x)

[Koert 0]

Hi @jalibu ,

It works (for the most of my Stocks). The ticker is showing me the correct value but not an increase/decrease in percent (for 2 of 10 stocks).

can you help me with this error message?

thank you in advance!

I am very new to all of this but have been able to install every module so far. I had the old one working fine until the other day when it would not update the stocks. Then I discovered it was updated so I removed the old one and installed the new one as directed. I copied the config file directly to the config.js but I keep getting an error. When I run the config check it keeps coming back as below:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check

> magicmirror@2.14.0 config:check /home/pi/MagicMirror
> node js/check_config.js

[01.04.2021 06:41.32.155] [INFO]  Checking file...  /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js
[01.04.2021 06:41.32.210] [ERROR] Your configuration file contains syntax errors :(
[01.04.2021 06:41.32.212] [ERROR] Line 109 col 3 Parsing error: Unexpected token stocks```

Any ideas? Like I said, the config file is copied right from the sample. Line 109 is the stocks : [ line from the sample.

@jack819 is there a comma on the end of line 108?

[jack819]

@sdetweil
There was not a comma (like I said, I am new to this). I did add one but now I just get a black screen when I start Magic Mirror. Nothing seems to load.

[sdetweil]

@jack819 and when u look at the messages in the window where u started MM???

did u do an npm install in the module folder after git clone?

[sdetweil]

@jack819 said in [MMM-JaST] Just another Stock Ticker (new: version 2.0.0):

did u do an npm install in the module folder after git clone?

I see the instructions do not say to change to the module folder before doing the npm i
I submitted an issue to the modules github repo

[jack819]

Bear with me, I am new to this:

I got to the modules folder in terminal, copied the git command, hit enter. Once that happened, I typed in the npm i command. It appears it was still in the module folder.

[sdetweil]

@jack819 to install a module (read the link below in my signature)

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone   url from module
cd module_name
npm i

you need the module folder to be the current folder to do the dependency install

Hello,
I am French.
Since The data is now fetched from Yahoo’s finance API. I would like to try again to install this module but beforehand I would like to know how we find the symbols for the stocks ​​we want to have and present them like this:
{name: “BASF”, symbol: “BAS.DE”, quantity: 10},
{name: “SAP”, symbol: “SAP.DE”, quantity: 15},
{name: “Henkel”, symbol: “HEN3.DE”},
{name: “Alibaba”, symbol: “BABA”}
]
}
}

The stocks ​​that interest me are:
CAC 40
Dow jones
Euro stoxx 50
Crédit Agricole.

Thank you
