MMM-doomsDay - The countdown module,

[bberg115]

@broberg, thanks for the hard work :) I needed a “days up” counter for the lady friend. I modified the MMM-doomsDay.js so that it shows the number of days that we’ve been dating. I plan on changing the days to “X years, X days” sometime this week but wanted to say thanks!

edit: nice tag/username

Having an issue with the “toWhat” sticking.
I can not get it to change from “Leaving for Paris!”. See my code below:

{
module: ‘MMM-doomsDay’,
position: ‘bottom_right’, // This can be any of the regions, best results in center regions
config: {
doomsDay: “2017-05-07 24:00:00”, // YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS, Do not alter the time, just the date
ToWhat: ‘Joeys Wedding in TN!’,
updateInterval: 1 * 3600000,
singular: ‘more day!’, // what it should say when it’s only one day left, default is Day Left
plural: ‘more days’, // what it should say when it’s more days left, default is Days Left
// See ‘Configuration options’ for more information.
}
},

It’s case sensitive

toWhat not ToWhat

Thanks! It worked but that was copied and pasted from GitHub. May want to make the change.

Also, is there a way to add multiple count downs to the one module or do you duplicate the module with every countdown?

[broberg]

@bminer1 nice catch, the example was wrong, somehow I missed that!
(it’s correct in the Configuration list however)

Multiple instances in the config is the way to go at the moment,

It is possible to make instead of just days, weeks and days left? Thanks guys

I did it by myself, thank you anyway for the great module.

Hi all,
Bringing an old thread back up, just installed and got this module activated. I think I’ve done it correctly as per github but its not working. It just displays the ‘finished’ message the death and despair bit.

Can anyone tell me what silly obvious thing I’ve done wrong? Config in the pic below
Thanks
