i set it all on that page. exeption was my location. but all other options are set.

Hellangel1987

works! i sued your code. Delete the token. set it up new - start it with sudo npm start in MagicMirror directory. -> WORKS!

I think i missunterstand the fibit API page where you have some buttons tu push and autorize the app (i think i pushed them in the wrong way)…

You sayed something about your token.ini -> can you explain what exactly you have to to every day? i think about an cronjob for that - good chance to solve that together!

And another option is the weight of my fitbit ARIA, these data are also available - how can we bind them into the app ?

@Hellangel1987
Glad to hear you got it working.

I’m just trying to get the module to refresh more often. Not sure how to go about it.

You probably could get your weight data in too, you’d need to contact the creator of the module for that.

@olliewarren411 said in Fitbit:

Yes, you can change the refresh interval. In the script MMM-fitbit.js you’ll see

start: function() {
		Log.info('Starting module: ' + this.name);
		this.sendSocketNotification('SET CREDS',this.config.credentials)
		this.sendSocketNotification('GET DATA', 'intial');
		
		this.fadeSpeed = 500;
		
		// Schedule update interval.
		var self = this;
		setInterval(function() {
			self.updateData();
		}, 60*60*1000);
},

change the 60 x 60 x 1000 to an interval of your choosing. Just be careful to to refresh too often as you’ll get emails from FB telling you that you are pulling too much data. I think (and I’d have to check tonight) that I have mine set to 15 x 60 x 1000.

Thanks! works perfect. I’ve copied your set up so it refreshes the data every 15 mins.

I was getting invalid redirect_uri during the setup process. (sudo python setupAccess.py)

But now It’s working for me, great module !

kckndrgn

Anyway to get around having to run the setupAccess.py everyday/every other day to keep the tokens fresh?
Since I have to stop the MM from running, run the script to get new token, start MM again, it gets kind of annoying. I also run my Pi w/o keyboard/mouse so when I need to refresh the tokens I have to connect them.
I thought about adding a cron job to stop the MM, run the script and start MM, thoughts? Since the script leaves a browser window open, can the cron job kill it or is there a way to have the python script close the window when done?

TIA

@kckndrgn

dont know exactly but im also interested in your cronjob solution, can you inform us about your steps ? im tired getting every day that setupaccess working :(

I haven’t done it, yet, just thinking about it since it was mentioned. I think I’ve narrowed down the issue though:

First got an “expired” token notice, then the process tries to get a new token (possibly using the “refresh” token, I’m not sure at this point). But refresh tokens are valid for one use only, so it’s like the updated token is getting updated in the token.ini file.

Also interested with the cron mechanism, the module could execute the setupAccess process once a day and trigger a reload on the gui ?

I’m using vnc to connect remotely on the RPI since i don’t have mouse/keyboards connected.

3 days of syncing without an issue. Not sure what changed, I did pull the latest dev code for MM but made no changes to the fitbit module.
(of course now that I’ve said this, it will error out during the day :) )

kckndrgn

Had my first issues in a while last night. The problem was that my router lost internet connection and when it was restored the tokens were expired. I ran the setupAccess.py and got new tokens.
Seems that there should be a better way to reset the module on restart, like if the tokens are expired, the go get new ones.

Vendittelli

The python that accesses the fitbit API is currently having that functionality added, I’m doing some work at the moment to help with install issues and once the work on python-fitbit is complete I’ll update again.

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

i noticed that my mirror stopped getting data updates. it works yesterday but not today, can you help me identify where went wrong?

@chengstark,
Possibly the internet connection was lost during a refresh, this will cause the tokens to get out of date.
I stop MM, re-run the “setupAccess.py” script using credentials from the file, then re-start MM and all is fine, until the next time I have an internet hiccup.

chengstark

@kckndrgn thanks, will try

Vendittelli

I have released a fix for the .ini files problem in the latest version on GitHub. You’ll need to delete your tokens.ini and credentials.ini files and remake them (as well as performing a git pull) for the fix to be effective.

For some reason, I’m getting calories displayed, but nothing else. @Vendittelli, does the module have any additional debugging or logging that I can turn on to look through? - I’m not getting any issues in dev mode or in the terminal - it seems that’s the only data I get. When I look in the dev console, I see:

writing steps (data/goal): 0/10000
Writing floors (data/goal): 0/10
writing calories out (data/goal): 1664/2930
writing distance (data/goal) 0/5
writing activeminutes (data/goal): 0/30
writing sleep (data/goal): 0/480

When I clear down my tokens.ini and re-run the setupaccess.py, I can see the scope information for the token results includes u’social’, u’settings’, u’profile’, u’sleep’, u’activity’, u’heartrate’, u’weight’, u’nutrition’, u’location’
if that’s helpful…
As a slight aside: @olliewarren411, would you mind sharing your ‘vertical-layout’ css? I’m still trying to get my head around cascading style sheets!

Vendittelli

@darrene That is weird. The module is pretty unadvanced so I don’t have proper debugging, unfortunately. The scope looks correct, are you sure you have synced your Fitbit today? It would explain why calories are displayed as they are calculated automatically so you don’t need to sync them.

darrene

Thanks for the quick reply @Vendittelli - that could be the answer. I didn’r realise the calories were calculated like that - as you say, it’d certainly explain it.

I’ll have a look into it. If it comes to it, I’ll recreate the app - I seem to remember there are a list of tick boxes for the fitibit attributes and on the pi browser, it was really difficult to tell whether or not they were ticked!
