Advent Module not working for me...?

lolobyte

Maybe this will help you.
It’s my part of config with the Advent module after updating by the developer with the possibility to implement 4 candles.:

            {
                    module: 'MMM-Advent',
                    position: 'bottom_center',
                    config: {
                            updateInterval: 10 * 60 * 1000,
                            marks: 0, //default is 24
                            height: 400,
                            showFlameBeforeStart: false,
                            start: ["2016-11-27 00:00:01", "2016-12-11 00:00:01", "2016-12-18 00:00:01", "2016-12-04 00:00:01"],
                            end: ["2016-12-24 23:59:59", "2016-12-24 23:59:59", "2016-12-24 23:59:59", "2016-12-24 23:59:59"],
    //                      start: "2016-11-25 00:00:01", //Geburtstag Anfang
    //                      end: "2016-11-25 23:59:59", //Geburtstag Ende
    //                      start: "2016-12-01 00:00:01", //Eine Kerze; default is "2016-12-01 08:00:00"
    //                      end: "2016-12-24 23:59:59", //Eine Kerze; default is "2016-12-24 22:00:00"
                            enableAnimation: true,
                            fontColor: "#000000", //default is #000000 (black)
                            candleColor: "#FFFFFF", //default is #FFFFFF (white)
                            }
            },

@valid8r Did you copy and paste the example config from the readme? The section should work as is. If you did not copy it exactly, pay attention to the braces and commas, maybe you have got a syntax error.

Full disclosure: I am the author of the module.

Thanks guys - I’m embarrassed to admit that I had typed “bottom-center” instead of “bottom_center”!

@lolobyte Thanks!!! This helped. I saw from this that I had mis-typed “bottom_center” as “bottom-center”!

You would think that as an Engineer, details would be something I would excel at, apparently that is not the case!

I’m having trouble using git clone with the https:// link you provided. can you confirm that is the correct fork? Also does the module use position: ?

@valid8r

Hi, thats the web link. There is no fork link.
Create a folder “snow” in your module folder.

Copy snow.js and snow.css in this folder.

Edit your config.js an put folowing code into

    {
    module: 'snow',
    },

restart your mm with

pm2 restart mm

Good luck

@lolobyte Got it! Thanks! Wife love it.
