MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor

[Laurids]

@foxy25 Hi, after a new installation of MagicMirror I have problems with the callmonitor. The MM shows the number of incoming calls, but the list of missing calls is empty. When I set

showContactsStatus: true

,then I only get two rotating arrows behind “no calls”, instead of the number of entrys of my phonebook.
I tried all the advices in this thread, but nothing works. In another thread I found, that it would be helpful to uninstall Python and install version 0.5.0. Can someone explain, how to do this?
Thanks and best regards

Hi, tried endlessly on a new installation to get calls showing again.
Current call works
I get the error of:

pi@WestMainServ100:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor $ python fritz_access.py -p xxxxxx -u xxx -i 192.168.62.1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "fritz_access.py", line 1, in <module>
    import argparse, os, fritzconnection, urllib2, sys, json
ImportError: No module named fritzconnection

Changed the files node_helper.js, package.json and fritz_access.py.

This is my config.js part:

        {
                //disabled: true,
                module: 'MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor',
                position: 'top_left',   // This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
                header: "Letzte Anrufe", // This is optional
                config: {
                        user: "",
                        password: "xxxxxx",
                        deviceFilter: ["TelefoneWestFritzbox"],
                        vCard: "/home/pi/MagicMirror/contacts.vcf",
                        maximumCallDistance: 3000,
                        maximumCalls: 5,
                        fritzIP: "192.168.62.1",
                        // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
                }
        },

And the MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor.js:

        // Default module config.
        defaults: {
                numberFontSize: 30,
                vCard: true,
                fritzIP: "192.168.62.1",
                fritzPort: 1012,
                minimumCallLength: 0,
                maximumCallDistance: 60,
                maximumCalls: 5,
                fade: true,
                debug: false,
                fadePoint: 0.25,
                username: "",
                password: "xxxxx",
                reloadContactsInterval: 30, // 30 minutes, set to 0 to disable
                deviceFilter: ["TelefoneWestFritzbox"], // [] means no filtering
                showContactsStatus: true
        },

I installed different versions of fritzconnect. No clue what to do next…

Thank you, Matthias

@shadowmg
Just did a fresh install today. Installed MMM-FRRITZ-Box-Callmonitor, did npm install and installed fritzconnection.
Also installed fritzconnection.

pi@smartmirror:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor $ fritzconnection

fritzconnection v1.8.0
FRITZ!Box 6591 Cable at http://169.254.1.1
FRITZ!OS: 7.29

But when I use

python fritz_access.py -u user -p pass -i 192.168.0.1

i get

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "fritz_access.py", line 1, in <module>
    import argparse, os, fritzconnection, urllib2, sys, json
ImportError: No module named fritzconnection

Any idea on how to fix this? @paviro @sdetweil?

[sdetweil]

@requiemmg u need the python library for fritzconnection, whatever that is. separate install

[requiemmg]

@sdetweil Thanks, yes, this has been installed with sudo apt-get install python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev && sudo pip install fritzconnection as stated on the plugins’ page (https://github.com/paviro/MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor) and https://pypi.org/project/fritzconnection/

And as stated above: When I call fritzconnection from shell, it works. But when I call the script used by the plugin, it fails on the import of the library and I have no idea why.

[sdetweil]

@requiemmg said in MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor:

But when I call the script used by the plugin

typically this fails cause the python ‘virtual environment’ is not setup correctly

https://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/python_environment.htm

usually that means the shell started from code (not UI) startup script (usually ~/.bashrc, for bash ) doesn’t set the PATH correctly

[requiemmg]

@sdetweil Tried to fix this with
export PATH=“$PATH:/usr/local/bin/fritzconnection”

and
export PATH=“$PATH:/usr/local/bin/python”

to no avail…error stays the same

[sdetweil]

@requiemmg where?

[requiemmg]

from where I executed this command? from the modules’ directory.

The module is working if I use the .vcf method. But not if I want to log in via the module to fetch the latest calls.

[sdetweil]

@requiemmg said in MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor:

But not if I want to log in via the module

i don’t know what that means, but I assume that the module will exec or spawn the script somehow

and THAT is where the path needs to be set , at the time of exec/spawn

[requiemmg]

@sdetweil When I put it in the script in the first line, it will thow an invalid syntax error. Sorry, I guess I have to stick with the current functionality, I have no programming skills.
Thanks for your help.

[sdetweil]

@requiemmg no… it would be in the module code that launches the script

[requiemmg]

@sdetweil Thanks. That’s way beyond my abilities.
