MMM-RAIN-MAP (new: version 2.x)

[pminich]

@sdetweil All set, thanks. Still learning my way around npm, git, etc…

Seems like we’re in the same Boat! Weirdly enough, it hasn’t rained today. I’ll have an eye on it once it starts again!

Hello,

Is it possible to add a layer for tropical storm/hurricane tracks similar to how NHC does with their ‘interactive map’?

@Jalibu said in MMM-RAIN-MAP (new: version 2.x):

A few days ago, Openstreepmap obviously made some changes with their tile servers. They seem to block requests now, when the requests come from Electron applications. This is the case in most MagicMirror installations. As a consequence, MMM-RAIN-MAP does not show map tiles anymore.
I suspect, that also other modules are effected.
One possible fix is using another tile server for MMM-RAIN-MAP. One that still works at the moment, is the German fork “https://a.tile.openstreetmap.de/${z}/${x}/${y}.png”.
I will adjust the module soon, to use this tile server as a default.
You can also change the tile server by setting this property in the module config:

{
  mapUrl: "https://a.tile.openstreetmap.de/${z}/${x}/${y}.png"
}

How do I go about getting that for the usa in particular kansas.?

[Jalibu]

@pminich the same way. The German fork contains world wide map data.

@Jalibu
Ok it finally found my location.
The Lon and Lat where not registering in the module for some reason now they are… So all is good again…

Lon and Lat where not registering in the module

system is case sensitive, and " (quotes) around numbers become strings, which cause problems all over the place

Does “substitudeModules” work in server only mode? “displayOnlyOnRain” works just fine but when the rain map pops up it appears under the module it’s supposed to hide.

I have an issue, I want to setup rain map to france, but I have that : NO MAP at all (with openmap) can you help me please? thanks.

[Jalibu]

@hogedir can you please create an issue on github for that? Without further information (config, version) it is hard to find the reason 😉

[hogedir]

@Jalibu ok no problem. can you indicate me where i can find some logs for this module especially?

[Jalibu]

@hogedir in the Browser‘s console log and net tab

[hogedir]

@Jalibu it’s simply a raspi 4B 8GB, with a normal installation of MMM. I don’t know if i need to open a bug, it’s just the dump of the map that doesn’t work as you see on the screen.

A question : Your module accept FRENCH locations no for the rain map ?

Your module works well here, it’s only the map that is not get.

I don’t have any blocker in the dns. so I don’t undertand because all the other modules works fine, except of that map dump.

Here is my config.js :

{
module: “MMM-RAIN-MAP”,
position: “top_center”,
config: {
animationSpeedMs: 400,
colorScheme: 2,
colorizeTime: true,
defaultZoomLevel: 8,
displayTime: true,
displayTimeline: true,
displayClockSymbol: true,
displayHoursBeforeRain: -1,
extraDelayLastFrameMs: 1000,
extraDelayCurrentFrameMs: 3000,
// markers: [
// { lat: 49.41, lng: 8.717, color: “red” },
// { lat: 48.856, lng: 2.35, color: “green” },
// ],
// mapPositions: [
// { lat: 8.717, lng: -2.725, zoom: 9, loops: 1 },
// { lat: 8.717, lng: -2.725, zoom: 6, loops: 2 },
// { lat: 48.856, lng: 2.35, zoom: 6, loops: 1 },

// ],

// mapUrl: “https://tiles.wmflabs.org/bw-mapnik/8/48.471/-2.725”,

mapWidth: “420px”, // must be a pixel value (no percent)
maxHistoryFrames: -1,
maxForecastFrames: -1,
substitudeModules: [],
updateIntervalInSeconds: 300,
}
},

@hogedir your configuration is buggy. Please read the module’s Readme.
You don’t have to (and should not) change the mapUrl at all.
Use mapPositions to justify it. The module should work world-wide.
I’d recommend to use the default values whenever possible and just to set values you need to override.

Does that work for you?

{
 module: "MMM-RAIN-MAP",
 position: "top_center",
 config: {
  mapPositions: [
   { lat: 48.472, lng: -2.725 }    
  ]
 }
}

[hogedir]

@Jalibu Thanks. I copied your code, and nothing again. No map.

[sdetweil]

@hogedir can you show the messages at mm startup?

either npm start or if you use pm2, then

pm2 logs --lines=50

[Jalibu]

@hogedir I noticed there were wrong double quote characters in the code of my last post.
Please try again with the code below. Otherwise, please open an issue on GitHub and provide all the information asked in the form (entire config & logs)

{
 module: "MMM-RAIN-MAP",
 position: "top_center",
 config: {
  mapPositions: [
   { lat: 48.472, lng: -2.725 }    
  ]
 }
}

@hogedir @Jalibu it’s working now Thanks ! : the map is showing well now BUT the rain is not showed very well !

I compared what i see outside of my home and we had 5minutes before some rain and your data flow is not precise at all, i did not saw a rain in my region on your map but i saw it in weatherplaza.

I give you the page which is more precise and realistic than the rain data you have in the module : https://www.weerplaza.nl/regenradar/europa/frankrijk/

Map of rains with weather plaza : :

Map of rains with your module : :

Lots of difference, weather plaza is realistic (i checked outside 2 times yesterday, your module did not show well the rain.)

• Second thing, I noticed something too : i want the “pause” time before the red zone to be more fast (some mms more fast). is it possible to change the “pause timer” ? Thanks

[hogedir]

@Jalibu Look Here is the map of Weatherplaza (meteoplaza) in the same time than yours, if it can help.

and then the data flow on the module (less rain and less precise) :

thanks

@hogedir it’s not ‘his’ data. he is requesting a graphic from a service, and displaying what they give.
