    @kent79 well, it will work, BUT you make a check every 100 ms… so LOTS of wasted work… let the system work for you

    fetchIt: function(self){
    		var url1 = "https://abc ....";		
    		
    		fetch(url1)
    			.then((resp) => resp.json())
    			.then(function(data) {
    				// Here you get the data to modify as you please
    				self.lunar = data.LunarDate;							
    				self.updateDom();
    			})
    
    			.catch(function(error) {
    				// If there is any error you will catch them here
    			});	
    },
    
    updateLunarCal: function() {
    
    		let MS_in_day = 24*60*60*1000;
    		let now = moment();
    		let MS_til_midnight = MS_in_day - (now.diff(now.clone().startOf('day'), 'milliseconds')
    
    			
    		// start a one time timer to end of day
    		setTimeout((selft) =>{
    			
    			//in one time timer(at  00:00:00), start interval for next start of day
    			setInterval((selfi)=>{
    				// fetch data, once per day at 00:00:00
    				self.fetchIt(selfi) // use 'this' pointer passed to the interval routine
    			},MS_in_day,
    			  selft)  // pass 'this' pointer passed to us
    
    			// fetch on the 1st start of day, one time
    			self.fecthIt(selft)
    
    		}, MS_til_midnight,
    		   this );  // pass 'this' to the timer routine
    
    		// fetch data now, 1st time
    		this.fetchIt(this);
    }

      	 updateLunarCal: function() {

      		// fetch data now, 1st time
      		this.fetchIt(this);
      	},
      

      Thank you so much for your reply. I got error while running above function. There may be some syntax error. But I can’t fix it. Please help me again. Thanks

        It seems OK now. I will test it on tonight and will share it to all later. Thank you so much.

            Would you like to tell me which line need to update since I don’t know how to do? I have tested the above code, no syntax error, but no working while on 00:00. Thanks

                  @kent79 here you go
                  use this repo

                  git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Lunar.git

                  then u can git init to wipe out my repo

                  the BIG cause was that your start routine
                  called
                  this.updateLunarCal();
                  not
                  this.updateLunarDate();

                  start also doesn’t need to call fetchIt as the updateLunarDate does that after setting up the timer

                  I cleaned up the rest…

                  you can test by setting the ‘end time’ in ms…
                  hour and minute and then see it fire the setTimeout handler
                  see comment in the code

                    Thank you for your all effort. My dream is coming true soon.

                    I have tested. No Luck. Don’t know is it coding program or my testing method wrong.

                    I am using windows brower to connect MM server. Then, changing windows clock to 23:59. After 00:00, there is no any changing of Lunar date.

                      you have to set the clock BEFORE opening the MM page… it doesn’t reset when the clock changes…

                      the code only sets up ONCE when loaded, so the clock has to be set first…

                      learn to use the developers window, ctrl-shift-i , sources tab,

                      you can step thru the code

                      ohhhhhh

                      and I gave it set to trigger BEFORE midnight… see the code, comment out and restore the 24×60… so you could test without having to reset the clock
