MMM-COVID19-SPARKLINE

skelliam

Description:
Yet another COVID-19 tracker. This one adds sparklines (small graphs).

4-April-2020: Added Weekly change vs. Total Cases plot (sparklineDeltavsDaily), see this idea put forth by minutephysics in “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54XLXg4fYsc”

5-April-2020: Added ability to show n days in delta plot (showDeltaPlotNDays), also merged Brian Hepler’s numeric delimiter option.

For the latest info please see the project readme.md file.

Credits:
This is a combination of MMM-COVID19 and MMM-COVID-19. I liked Jose’s clean look, but I liked how Sean used the github data source (the same data Johns Hopkins is using). So I used Sean’s library and Jose’s GUI and added the tiny plots.

I also discovered highcharts.js while working on this; this is an incredible piece of work. (Also see MMM-GoogleFit’s use of this lib.)

Thanks Brian Hepler for adding delimiters to the data, makes it much easier to read. See option showDelimiter.

If you see something wrong, please fix it and make a pull request. I can’t promise that I’ll be actively maintaining this or responding to queries.

Last n days in delta plot screenshot
The option showDeltaPlotNDays will sum the previous (n) days and smooth out the delta plot, this has an effect of phase-shifting the data to the left in time, but it also helps eliminate noise. I love how the South Korea data below clearly shows two distinct curves – one indicating that their peak growth has come and gone, but a new curve showing peak growth of recoveries. This data is beautiful! :)

WoW! Fantastic ;)

Please add an option to select backend data. Current github api doesn’t have updated data for Europe. Using MMM-COVID19 data is refreshed.

Thank you for this. Great work.

Is there any update to show UK / Europe data?

bhepler

@Sparkie579 - UK can be specified by putting “United Kingdom” in the config. I don’t think there is one for the EU as a whole. But you can specify the countries in the EU.

You can go to the Johns Hopkins page and see the list of countries that it tracks. Use those names in the left column if you need to look up particular spelling & variations (UK vs United Kingdom vs Britain vs England).

skelliam

@bhepler Thanks, that is exactly correct! Any country can be specified so long as it is in the Johns Hopkins data.

Getting this error when I try to run npm install

npm ERR! code Z_DATA_ERROR
npm ERR! errno -3
npm ERR! zlib: invalid distance too far back

Actually getting that error when trying to install MMM-Screencast as well.

Running my MM in serveronly in a docker on my Synology NAS

skelliam

@cyberphox It seems you need to update the system zlib. See here: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/22839

@skelliam Turns out installing a Synology package also installed Nodejs v12 which npm doesn’t like much…uninstalled both and error has disappeared…Thanks!

Hi everybody,

just a question about countries.
It is possible to add France ? or is too complicated ?

take care of yourself :winking_face:

No Problem add “France” to your country’s in the config that’s it.

rafaelcota

@MisterT Just add France to the list of countries in config

Glad you got it worked out @cyberphox!

@bhepler Thank you for your help. It works now.

Beh

Awesome module! Thank you so much! I was just browsing around on this forum and immediately installed it. Good work.

@skelliam is there a way to do it by state?

On a wider display, there is a small layout issue. The two sparkline graphs are left-aligned while all other content and titles are right-aligned. Is there an easy way to fix this?
