[MMM-JaST] Just another Stock Ticker (new: version 2.x)

sdetweil

@jack819 is there a comma on the end of line 108?

@sdetweil
There was not a comma (like I said, I am new to this). I did add one but now I just get a black screen when I start Magic Mirror. Nothing seems to load.

sdetweil

@jack819 and when u look at the messages in the window where u started MM???

did u do an npm install in the module folder after git clone?

I see the instructions do not say to change to the module folder before doing the npm i
I submitted an issue to the modules github repo

jack819

Bear with me, I am new to this:

I got to the modules folder in terminal, copied the git command, hit enter. Once that happened, I typed in the npm i command. It appears it was still in the module folder.

@jack819 to install a module (read the link below in my signature)

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone   url from module
cd module_name
npm i

you need the module folder to be the current folder to do the dependency install

Hello,
I am French.
Since The data is now fetched from Yahoo’s finance API. I would like to try again to install this module but beforehand I would like to know how we find the symbols for the stocks we want to have and present them like this:
{name: “BASF”, symbol: “BAS.DE”, quantity: 10},
{name: “SAP”, symbol: “SAP.DE”, quantity: 15},
{name: “Henkel”, symbol: “HEN3.DE”},
{name: “Alibaba”, symbol: “BABA”}
]
}
}

The stocks that interest me are:
CAC 40
Dow jones
Euro stoxx 50
Crédit Agricole.

Thank you

I tried to install this module with the stocks in examples but I had a problem of “Electron rebuild” because of black screen, I do not know how to make an “electron rebuild” so I deleted the module and the modules of my MM reappeared.
how to do an “electron rebuild”?

Jalibu

Bonjour @rikko14,

an easy way to get your Stock Symbols is as follows:

Open https://finance.yahoo.com and just search for your favorite stocks (i.e. BMW)
Click on Search result
URL should now be like https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BMW.DE?p=BMW.DE&.tsrc=fin-srch where BMW.DE is the symbol.

This module should not cause any problems with Electron. But there was a mistake in the installation documentation. Please make sure to change into the MMM-Jast module’s folder before you execute the “npm i” command. Please check the latest installation instructions, as they are now fixed.

Jalibu

@jack819 That was my mistake in the documentation. It is fixed now.

@jalibu
This is an awesome module, thanks!
Is there a way to cut away decimal numbers on displayed asset price? I have limited space on my MM display and don’t need to see decimals…

Jalibu

@uros76
I liked your idea and added this feature. Please checkout the latest version and check the README for instructions for your configuration.

Please let me know if you’re facing any issues, as I did not have the time for extensive testing.

Changes v.2.1.0

You can now configure the number of decimals for stock values (default: 2) and percentages (default: 1)
Decimal separator symbols are now localized by the browser’s locale, as most of the countries use a comma instead of a dot.
The stock’s name field is optional now. If it is not set, the stock’s official trade name will be used.

@jalibu you sir are a legend! Thanks a lot for such quick implementation of decimals idea. I just pulled the latest version and it works. Virtual beer for you :beer_mug:

Jalibu

The latest version has some major improvements for localizations in number formatting (i.e $123.45 en-US vs. 123,45 EUR de-DE)

Please check it out and let me know if you‘re facing issues.

Hello Jalibu,
first and foremost i want to say that your module is very nice.
But I want to ask you if it is possible to show the whole depot and not just the growth?
Furthermore it would be nice to have the option to disable the color.
Thanks for your Work!

Jalibu

@martinloidolt
Thank you for your comment and your ideas.

I’ll add this as soon.

@jalibu
Hello! Love your module;) Maybe the almighty might be able to help me out a little?
i cant seem to be able to standard a header?

Have tried the following without any result.

module: "MMM-Jast",
header: 'Finanser',
position: "top_left",

module: "MMM-Jast",
header: '"Finanser",
position: "top_left",

Any ideas would be much appreciated :)

Hi @Leijoh,
you can rely on the almighty! There indeed was a problem with the header setting which was fixed in the latest 2.3.0 release.

Hi @MartinLoidolt,
I picked up both of your feature requests and put them in the latest 2.3.0 release, too.

Hello Everyone!

I’m currently trying to install and use this module but when I start it, it says “undefined” and I have no clue of what’s going on… I follow exactly the instruction but… I can’t make it work. Am I missing something?

Thank You!
