I have installed the MMM-traffic module and have add. following to Config.js :

/* Magic Mirror Config Sample

var config = {
	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"],

	language: 'da',
	timeFormat: 24,
	units: 'metric',

	modules: [
		{
			module: 'alert',
		},
		{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar"
		},
		{
			module: 'clock',
			position: 'top_left'
		},
		{
			module: 'calendar',
			header: 'Kalender',
			position: 'top_left',
			config: {
				
				calendars: [
					{
						symbol: 'home',
						url: 'XXXXXXXX'
					},		   		
					{
						symbol: 'home',
						url: 'XXXXXXXXX'
					},
					{
						symbol: 'home',
						url: 'XXXXXXXXXX'
					},
					{
						symbol: 'home',
						url: 'XXXXXXXXXX'
					},
                                ]
  			}	
                },
		
    	
		{
			module: 'compliments',
			position: 'lower_third'
		},
		{
			module: 'currentweather',
			position: 'lower_right',
			config: {
				location: 'New York',
				locationID: '2618425',  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
				appid: 'XXXXXXXXXXXX'
			}
		},
		{
			module: 'weatherforecast',
			position: 'top_right',
			header: 'Weather Forecast',
			config: {
				location: 'New York',
				locationID: '2618425',  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
				appid: 'XXXXXXXXXXX'
			}
		},
		{
			module: 'newsfeed',
			position: 'bottom_bar',
			config: {
				feeds: [
					{
						title: "Ekstra Bladet Nyheder",
						url: "http://ekstrabladet.dk/rss2/?mode=normal&submode=nyheder"
					}
				],
				showSourceTitle: true,
				showPublishDate: true
			}

		},
		{
	module: 'MMM-Traffic',
	position: 'middle_center',
	classes: 'dimmed medium', //optional, default is 'bright medium', only applies to commute info not route_name
	config: {
		api_key: 'XXXXXXXXXXXX',
		mode: 'driving',
		origin: '4 Pennsylvania Plaza, New York, NY 10001',
		destination: '1 MetLife Stadium Dr, East Rutherford, NJ 07073',
		arrival_time: '0800', //optional, but needs to be in 24 hour time if used.
		route_name: 'Home to Work',
		changeColor: true,
		showGreen: false,
		limitYellow: 5, //Greater than 5% of journey time due to traffic
		limitRed: 20, //Greater than 20% of journey time due to traffic
		traffic_model: 'pessimistic',
		interval: 120000, //2 minutes
		showWeekend: false,
		allTime: false
		}
		},       
	]

};

if (typeof module !== 'undefined') {module.exports = config;}

After I have copy/paste the MMM-traffic module into Config.JS I only got a black screen, If I remove the MMM-Traffic in config.JS everything is fine, and I got my three calendars weather and news - what can be wrong ?

is the error in config.JS or MMM-Traffic module ?

best regards
Michael

@ironman_DK the config for traffic works for me. Did you install the module in the correct folder ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Traffic? Did you install the dependencies?

@strawberry-3.141 said in MMM-traffic - used 12 hour to get it work but can not....:

dependencies

the Module is installed correct, what is dependencies, and what do I do ? I really need your help in this matter…

is dependencies something there should be in config.js or ?

Best regards
Michael

@ironman_DK did you run npm install in ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Traffic

[ironman_DK]

@strawberry-3.141 yes I did the installation in the right modules etc…

@ironman_DK problem solved. Somehow he modified the module directory name to lowercase and the system couldn’t find the module.
