Well, I have 3 of them so not sure how to display but I do like the colored ring based on status. There are also alerts that could be displayed as well.

I made a separate branch if you want to check it out. I’ll merge it after I run some more tests.
https://github.com/mochman/MMM-Nest/tree/protectYou are going to have to edit your Nest developer settings to allow read access to the “protect” in order for this to work. When you do that, you’ll need to run getToken.sh again to get a new token.
I gave you the option to use a visual representation, or a list representation. If you use visual, you have the choice to display your nest, protect, or both together.
Here are some of the ways it displays to you.
I can’t find the “Smoke is clearing” data or stuff like that, so it just shows if there is an alarm for smoke or carbon monoxide, or if your battery is low.
Please take a look and tell me what you think.

So I’m making modifications to support Nest Cams. The only catch is that the cameras have to be public. I can pull the calls and writing up a UI. It’s in my own github https://github.com/alberttwong/MMM-Nest and plan to do a PR soon.
-
@alberttwong That’s great! I don’t have a drop cam so I’m not really sure what information people would want to get from them.
-
So there seems to be some gotchas. Basically, the Nest API doesn’t help yet. In the meantime, you can get the Nest Camera working through MMM-iFrame with caveats (https://github.com/alberttwong/MMM-iFrame).

New here, about to start making mine. Have to wait until my raspberry pi gets here in a few days though. The module looks great, however, I was wondering if it is possible to add the function to adjust the temperature on it. Up/down arrows, change from A/C to heat, switch it off and so on.
Thanks! Hopefully I’ll have some information to provide soon.
-
@caseyrcoughlin It might be possible, but how would someone select the up/down arrows, etc? Are you setting up a touch screen mirror?
-
@mochman Yes, it’ll be a touch screen. Adding a touchfoil to it. I’m still VERY new at this and haven’t had a chance to even play around with anything so most of it is out of context for me right now but I know it’s a feature I’d like to see incorporated. I’ll start tinkering with it myself soon hopefully.
-
Module works quite well for me as installed, but I do have one thing I can’t seem to puzzle out.
I may well be missing something - and my apologies if so - but I can’t seem to find it based on everything I’ve read. Is there a way to display multiple thermostats in a single row with a visual display? Right now I’ve enabled both by adding separate instances in the config, which works just fine to make them stack on top of each other, but it looks kinda silly having the two circles on top of each other with a big space to the side.
I’m assuming there’s some form of custom CSS magic involved, but I’m new to that and can’t seem to get a single module instance to display both thermostats in the first place.
Either way, thanks so much!!

@pyrosmiley No, sorry. You’re doing it the way I would have recommended. If you want to throw a feature request on the githuib page, I’d be more than happy to try and figure something out.
