covid bell curve line graph tracker

sdetweil

@sdetweil @humdinger44 another set of fixes for handling names with spaces and not found names (no crash)

added abbrev for UK (instead of ‘United_Kingdom’)
‘United Kingdom’ works (notice space vs underscore)

sdetweil

another fix to erase the downloaded file,

u can cleanup by erasing the xlsx files

rm ~/MagicMirror/*.xlsx

sdetweil

another update, NOW refresh will work! sorry

humdinger44

@sdetweil This really is great. If you can easily add a individual states (US) I would like to see how my state is doing compared to the national numbers. Its obviously not realistic to display 50 states at once but one or two would be nice. If its a whole big thing don’t worry about it

sdetweil

@humdinger44 the data source I have doesn’t have areas inside countries, so I cannot add that

refresh is broken(I guessed new data would be available at 2am, wasn’t until 7am! oops)… testing fix now

sdetweil

update for refresh when no data available, keep trying!

sdetweil

another fix for refresh (starting after midnight , but no data available yet left a blank display)…

also fixed to add two more charts

new cases and new deaths by day
new cases for the US ‘may’ show effect of distancing… need more days
(or maybe not, one day drop)

todays data, 2020-03-26, is still not yet posted…(as of 8:40 am central time us)
2020-03-26 data has arrived, 08:56 us central time, (and update worked!)

@sdetweil kind of a simple question, but i cannot for the life of me figure out how to change the color of the dates, and the countries names to white?? I looked everywhere and tried my custom css file to no avail…

sdetweil

@almostgithub >change the color of the dates, and the countries names to white??

sorry, don’t understand… they are white already (not bright white)

I currently don’t provide access to those settings…

this is all controlled by the charting library I am using…
I would have to add settings to enable access

sdetweil

@almostgithub Ok I’ve added some.

git pull in the module folder,

here are the things u can set… will get to the doc in the morning

    legendTextColor:'white',

    chartTitleColor: 'white',
    chart_title: '',

    xAxisLabel:"by date",
    xAxisLabelColor:'white',
    xAxisTickLabelColor:'white',

    yAxisLabel:"Count",
    yAxisLabelColor:'white',
    yAxisTickLabelColor:'white',

almostgithub

@sdetweil oh wow! Thanks so much, thats awesome!! They are grey on my mirror and makes it hard to read the legend and dates.

edit: after a git pull and npm install, it seems to be stuck on MyCovid19 Loading data for chart “cumulative_deaths”

edit: Saw this in the issues tab, will ask there

sdetweil

new update, data source changed … after git pull, need to run npm install again to update the library used to read the data (csv instead of xlsx)

humdinger44

@sdetweil can you drop an example of the config for two graphs displayed at once?

Edit: nevermind, I was overthinking it.

sdetweil

grrr… data source not yet updated today… waiting, sent them a note…

I switched to the csv file (available earlier)…

now xlsx is right, csv, json and xml files not updated… and in the xlsx, they changed the column headings…

sdetweil

@sdetweil after sending email, they have updated the csv file now…

also, uploaded new version with lots of text formatting control, see the now long readme
also added ability to change the start date for the chart, see startDate in the readme

sdetweil

now supports states charts too

git pull,

in config states:[] vs countries:[]

Looks great! I’m looking forward in using this module, but I just don’t get the chart dimensions to work, the size is always the same, big, and it doesn’t matter which region I use.

This is my config

            {
                            disabled: false,
                            module:"MyCovid19",
                            position:"top_left",
                            config:{
                                    countries:["Mexico"],
                                    line_colors:['red','white','green','yellow','blue'],
                                    chart_type:"cumulative_cases",
                                    chart_title:"Cumulative Cases",
                                    ranges:{min:0,max:10000,stepSize:1000},
                                    startDate: "03/01/2020",
                                    backgroundColor: "transparent",
                                    width: 300,
                                    height: 500,
                                    debug:false,
                            },
            },

And this is the result, I’ll try to attach a screen capture, let’s see if I can!

@rafaelcota hm… I usually have this

		{
			module:"MyCovid19",
			disabled:false,
			position:"top_left",
			config:{
				states:["Michigan", 'Texas','Illinois', 'Florida','California','Louisiana','Washington','New York',],
				// line colors can be any definition of color either a name ,or a hex string
				// one per country above, used in order,
				line_colors:['red','white','green','yellow','#34ebde','#34eb00','purple','orange'],
				//				
				chart_type:"deaths",  // or "cumulative deaths"
				chart_title:"daily new deaths by state", // however u want to label
				// the vertical steps on the chart.. how tall u want it to be and how mant increments 
				ranges:{min:0,max:000,stepSize:10},
				// size of the chart in pixels
			    width: 400,
			    height: 800,	
			    // only used if we need to debug something
			    //debug:true,
			    startDate:'03/10/2020',
			    debug:true,
			//    startLabel:['2/1/2020','3/1/2020']
			    //backgroundColor: 'white',
			}
		}

@sdetweil I know, that’s how it supposed to work, but not in my mirror… It’s driving me crazy… I’ve tried almost everything…
