MMM-BMWConnected (BMW Connected Drive data)

@imagic Is this problem solved?
Just installed this module and also says “bezig met laden”
I can’t reach @hdurdle , don’t have facebook, twitter, instagram and other social media ;-)
Also don’t know how to use the shell scripts.

shell scripts are just commands (written in text form)

so u can execute a bunch of commands and use logic…

to execute one of those, you would open a terminal window
ctrl-alt-t on the pi desktop, or open an ssh session from your windows/mac box to the pi

(to minimize MM to get to the desktop, alt-spacebar, n just line on windows for minimze fullscreen app)

I don’t know about the module…

@sdetweil Hi Sam, Thanks for your answer. I can’t get it to run on the pi (not enough knowledge of the pi, i’m learning),
but I managed running it on my Windows PC and got some data from the script.
So I think there is a problem in the module.

I have made some changes in the module and now it is working for me (changed defaults: apiBase, couldn’t get it to work with config: apiBase)
Also put an extra variable in the defaults: for selecting my cars

what happened there? we should figure that out as its part of the base MM design

@sdetweil
the module didn’t react on config: apiBase. after changing the url in the default, I could go further.
Furthermore, I added a car: element in the config and copied the module, so I could see both my cars.

ok, don’t know what that means…

what did u try to do in the module config that didn’t work

@sdetweil
Adding the row:
apiBase: “https://www.bmw-connecteddrive.com”,

@klassieker >apiBase: “https://www.bmw-connecteddrive.com”,

it doesn’t want the “https://” in the front, it adds that internally

apiBase	The location of the base API URL for your region.

Default: www.bmw-connecteddrive.co.uk

@sdetweil
Ah, I overread that part of https://.
I changed it back and it is still working .
Many thanks for helping me.
