Thats my config.
I’ve followed the instructions from https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-MyCommute and got a API key from the link provided.I might’ve chosen the wrong kind of API key tho, I took the Distance Matrix API since it provides travel time and distance for multiple destinations.

MyCommute does not show up when I open developer console, select the console tab and seach for MyCommute.

@Doogain Did you add the module into the MagicMirror/config/config.js?
-
@Doogain that is NOT your ‘config’… that is the module source.
my general rule, you never edit the module source, unless u are doign something special, like extending its functionalityto install a module you do
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules git clone ???where ??? is the module github url
then when that completes, you add a
{ module: ??? , config: { } }, to the modules array in config/config.js the required data for the config entry will be found in the README.md file in the module folder just created by the git clone operation -

That might be the issue, I didnt know I had to do that. Never installed a module before.

I’ll give a go now, will post back soon.

So I added this to config.js in MagicMirror/config
{
module: “MMM-MyCommute”,
position: “top_left”,
header: “Traffic”,
classes: “default everyone”,
},I recieved this error in developer console now

@Doogain
Your config entry should look more like the one in the Readme.md page of the module (https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-MyCommute)Also, be sure you followed all of the installation notes in the readme.
{ module: 'MMM-MyCommute', position: 'top_left', config: { apikey: 'API_KEY_FROM_GOOGLE', origin: '65 Front St W, Toronto, ON M5J 1E6', startTime: '00:00', endTime: '23:59', hideDays: [0,6], destinations: [ { destination: '14 Duncan St Toronto, ON M5H 3G8', label: 'Air Canada Centre', mode: 'walking', color: '#82E5AA' }, { destination: '317 Dundas St W, Toronto, ON M5T 1G4', label: 'Art Gallery of Ontario', mode: 'transit' }, { destination: '55 Mill St, Toronto, ON M5A 3C4', label: 'Distillery District', mode: 'bicycling' }, { destination: '6301 Silver Dart Dr, Mississauga, ON L5P 1B2', label: 'Pearson Airport', avoid: 'tolls' } ] } } -
@Doogain u modified the module source. Please remove yours, and customize the config.js
-
I reverted the module source, I messed up bigtime on that. The modules show up in MM now, and that is so great! Thanks a lot!
It does give a me a error instead of commute time tho, I think thats a either a API or adress error.
Which API do I have to select from google? It gives me several choices. -
I believe it’s the Maps Javascript API>>Directions API
-

Hmm still getting a error where it should say commute time.
It says:
MMM-MyCommute: You must enable Billing on the Google Cloud Project at https://console.cloud.google.com/project/_/billing/enable Learn more at https://developers.google.com/maps/gmp-get-startedI already have that enabled tho.
