MMM-NHL - NHL Score and Schedule module

[Trentent]

Description:

Hello, I have created a module that shows the NHL schedule and scores for the previous day, today, and (optional) days in the future. I copied the brilliant NFL score module than proceeded to make numerous modifications to enable it to work with the NHL and their feeds.

Several of the features of the NFL module has been removed or have gone untested (follwed team/voice/statistics) so this module is pretty basic in comparison but accomplishes what I was looking for.

I am a total newb to javascript and have not coded in a node.js architecture before so I’m sure I’ve done lots wrong or have lots of mistakes that could use correcting. If you see some, feel free to submit back or just fork and take that responsibility away from me :)

Thanks for looking!

@Trentent there are still some unused leftovers from the nfl module in your code and you could have saved same time :D already made a nhl module, but now people can choose different styles

I swear I tried finding an NHL module and couldn’t so decided to try making it myself! Heh, well thanks for making one!

@Trentent Hey, I just did this with the NFL module but am wondering if I can only show one team in the NHL module? I tried focus_on: [‘NYI’] (yes I am an Isles fan, ugh). This didn’t work, is there something else I need to change?

@ooom416354 try focus_on: [2]

Thanks for posting this! Really only interesting the NY Rangers. The full list of teams can be found in the .js file.

Hey guys,

I have installed MMM-NHL in modules and edited my config.js file which shows the modules on my MagicMirror. However, I cannot see the schedule list, there are games on tonight. Any suggestions?

@HungoverRex

Did you maybe skip installing the dependencies? Navagate to the modules/MMM-NHL folder and

sudo npm install

Restart your mirror and you should have scores.

@HungoverRex remove the quotes from your booleans, this should be the problem.

{
  module:"MMM-NHL",
  position: "lower_third",
  config: {
    colored: false,
    focus_on: false,
    format: "ddd h:mm",
    reloadInterval: 1800000,
    datesToLookAhead: 1
  }
}

This is an awesome module! Thanks for the work.

One question for you. I’ve got it set to focus on my team. However, it only shows the previous game if it occurred yesterday. Is it possible to change this so it pulls the previous two or three days’ worth of games?

For example: the Dallas Stars played on Saturday. They had an off-day Sunday, and it is now Monday. Yet it does now show Saturday’s game. I’ve looked at the .js file and nothing jumps out at me. Any ideas?

Thanks again!

getting “Loading” on my screen. Any ideas of what i am missing? @Trentent

{
module: ‘MMM-NHL’,
position: ‘middle_center’,
config: {
colored: false,
focus_on: false,
format: ‘ddd h:mm’,
reloadInterval: 1800000,
datesToLookAhead: 1
}
},

I have a small issue with the module, wondering if it’s something I screwed up. Basically it will refresh with the realtime scores for any games listed on the mirror. But after the game ends it will not add on any new scores and remove the old scores as the days move forward. for example, I have focus on the NY Islanders and they played Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday. They are scheduled to play tonight as well. On my mirror right now are the 3 previous games but not the next 3. If I reload the entire page it will update with tonights game and any future ones. Is there something I need to do to get it to update automatically without having to refresh the whole mirror?

[Atheose]

@ooom416354 I am having this exact issue now as well. It began last week. If I refresh the mirror the scores/schedule updates, but otherwise it does not.

I’ve been playing with this module during the playoffs, and I’ve found a few bugs that were causing this module to fail. I’ve fixed them in my local copy, but I don’t know how to go about getting them incorporated into the official download.

I’ve also changed the visual formatting for myself, and am willing to share if anyone wants it:

Thanks for this wonderful module! Been fun watching the playoffs and tweaking this at the same time. I’d like to make similar ones for other sports – NBA, MLB, CFL – and I’m willing to provide front-end formatting if someone would take care of coding the data fetch.

@j.e.f.f I’d love to get a copy of your fixes and visual tweaks! Maybe upload the .zip somewhere and share?

[j.e.f.f]

@reflektor Sure. I’ve done more or less the same for MLB and NBA too. Basically in each case it is a rewrite of the getDom() portion of the module, along with styles to support the new markup. Also I changed the logos to use SVG files so they would scale to whatever size I needed. Spent quite a bit of time playing around with proportions before I settled on this. PM me and I can send you the files.
