MMM-COVID19

[Joeri]

@mumblebaj Hello, I’ve got the same problem, this is my config.

{
module: “MMM-COVID19”,
position: “lower_third”,
config: {
updateInterval: 300000,
worldStats: true,
delta: true,
headerRowClass: ‘small’,
orderCountriesByName: “false”,
lastUpdateInfo: true,
countries: [ “Argentina”, “USA” ],
headerRowClass: “small”,
infoRowClass: “medium”,
rapidapiKey : “MY KEY”,
}
},

@mumblebaj Same problem here. Looks like its paid now. curl shows “You are not subscribed to this API”

There are two versions of the api. A paid and a freemium version. The freemium one is the V2!
If you want to use the freemium version you will have to edit the node_helper.js file in the module directory (MMM-COVID19) and change the rapidapihost entry and the GET URL as well

rapidhost
NEW: “x-rapidapi-host”: “coronavirus-monitor-v2.p.rapidapi.com”,
OLD: “x-rapidapi-host”: “coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com”,

GET URL
NEW: ‘https://coronavirus-monitor-V2.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/cases_by_country.php’
OLD: ‘https://coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/worldstat.php’

Hi guys,

I’m not getting much luck getting this to work. I just get the header and no errors in the log.

{
module: “MMM-COVID19”,
position: “top_left”,
config: {
updateInterval: 300000,
worldStats: true,
delta: true,
lastUpdateInfo: true,
countries: [ “Argentina”, “China”, “Italy”, “Spain” ],
headerRowClass: “small”,
rapidapiKey : “xxx”
}
},

I’ve also amended the node_helper.js for the module to include the new rapidhost URLs

var byCountryUrl = ‘https://coronavirus-monitor-V2.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/cases_by_country.php’

getGlobalStats: function(key) {
var self = this
var options = {
method: ‘GET’,
url: worldStatsUrl,
headers: {
//‘x-rapidapi-host’: ‘coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com’,
‘x-rapidapi-host’: ‘coronavirus-monitor-v2.p.rapidapi.com’,
‘x-rapidapi-key’: key
}
}

getStatsByCoutry: function(key) {
var self = this
var options = {
method: ‘GET’,
url: byCountryUrl,
headers: {
//‘x-rapidapi-host’: ‘coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com’,
‘x-rapidapi-host’: ‘coronavirus-monitor-v2.p.rapidapi.com’,
‘x-rapidapi-key’: key
}
}

Any help would be great!

Thanks

@dubalda when u use the url in a browser does it return the right data?

[dubalda]

Hi Sam,

I just get "{“message”:“Invalid API key. Go to https://docs.rapidapi.com/docs/keys for more info.”}

Sorry, perhaps I missing something here…are you refering this URL

https://coronavirus-monitor-V2.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/cases_by_country.php

Thx

[sdetweil]

@dubalda whatever api you use. i always test in a browser first.

u need to add the apikey to the url

i am making it up (not exact text) cause i am on my phone in hospital

url.php&api_key=whatever is the key

[dubalda]

Sorry to hear you’re in hospital! Hopefully it’s nothing to serious.

I tried…

https://coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/united_states_cases.php&api_key=xxx

and received.

{“message”:“Invalid API key. Go to https://docs.rapidapi.com/docs/keys for more info.”}

RapidAPI does see it’s free service. I’ve amened the entries in node_helper.js back to the their defaults but still no joy there. Very strange.

[sdetweil]

@dubalda free and requiring a key are different.

if u require a key you know who consumes your service

i said dont take my words exactly.

what does the service say is the apikey parameter name, exact spelling

this aint magic, its grunt work getting the parms right

i do my.own covid charts MyCovid19, see

https://github.com/sdetweil/MyCovid19

they have changed the data on me 3 times in a year. hard to keep up

[dubalda]

I’ve tried…

curl -H “x-rapidapi-host: coronavirus-monitor-v2.p.rapidapi.com” -H “x-rapidapi-key: xxx” ‘https://coronavirus-monitor-v2.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/cases_by_country.php’

And have copied the key (copy/paste) exactly from the website but get the message…

“message”:“You are not subscribed to this API.”

I think I’ll just get the Covid numbers from the news! Thanks for your help @sdetweil !

[sdetweil]

@dubalda see

https://docs.rapidapi.com/docs/basics-creating-a-project

[dubalda]

Thanks…I’ll have a look.

[dubalda]

@sdetweil I think the issue was due to the api having to be paid for. In the end I changed to MMM-COVID19-SPARKLINE which working fine. Thanks for your help!
