Thanks very much, now I will study you code, because I want to learn javascript my self.

@pjkoeleman the key here is that I’m using a plugin for Moment.js that allows formatting of time durations. By default, Moment.js doesn’t allow this. See here:

@j.e.f.f ok! Thanks I will try this as fast as possible, after my holiday ;)

FYI: I work at two destinations, Mon -Fri at W1 and Mon evening and Tuesday evening at W2 with about 1,5-2h at home ^^ only traveling with the car, so for me it’s necessary to know if my usual route is busy or not to calculate when I should left for work but I not really need to know the other route ;) traffic on route W2 varies +/- 1h… (terrible!)

But if this mini schedule thing inside this module works: WOW! What an absolutely overkill of an module for me!

Thanks, will study that as well.

Heh! It’s amazing how something that started out so simple has become so highly configurable! I originally wrote this module as a fork of a module that I couldn’t get to work properly for me.

I love the way your modules are configurable, every use can find / make his configuration.

Hi

i would really like to use this module because it seems great. But im a noob to this.
Maybe you can help me ? The module does not show at all on my MM

I have the module installed in de modules folder.
i did perform a git pull and a npm install. my config.js is as followed.

modules: [
		{
			module: "helloworld",
			position: "top_bar",
			config: {
				text: "Home of Harold & Jolanda"
				}
		},
		{
			module: "alert",
		},
		{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar"
		},
		{
  			module: 'MMM-MyCommute',
    			position: 'top_left',
     		        header: 'Traffic',
                        classes: 'default everyone',
  			config: {
   				apikey: 'I HAVE THE API KEY PUT HERE',
   				origin: 'MY HOME ADDRESS',
    				startTime: '00:00',
    				endTime: '23:59',
   			        hideDays: [0,6],
   				destinations: [
    		  			{
       			   	     	destination: 'WORK ADRESS',
      				     	label: 'WORK',
      			    	     	mode: 'driving',
      			    	     	color: '#82E5AA'
     		            	     	}
			    	    ]
			}
   		       		     		 
		},
		{
			module: "clock",
			position: "top_bar"
		},

In the MMM-MyCommute folder i did not edit or changed anything… should i edit the MMM-MyCommute.js file also ?? to get this module shown in the MM ?

I did reboot the Pi but no effect.

I hope you can help me.

Kind regards
Harold

o… wauw… im really stupid.

It is sunday i had the hideDays 0.6 line in the config file.

After deleting it worked like a charm. The moment i posted the message , i have seen the mistake i made. sorry…

Thanks for developing this great module !

j.e.f.f

@haroldgtv thanks for the kind words! Glad you got it sorted out.

I have kind of a weird question, but I haven’t had a chance to poke around and try for myself yet and I’m coming up on when I promised I’d have things done…

Is it particularly possible to reverse the module? I’m assuming I’d need a second instance with the modified code, but I’d like travel times to various places in the morning, and then midday it would switch to the travel times back home from those same spots. In my mind it seems like it might be as simple as swapping the parameters in the getData (or equivalent) function for making the API call, but I’m not entirely sure.

Does that seem about right? If it entails major code restructuring then I may just abort mission, but if not, that’d be a really cool feature to have since people are in and out of my house all over the day.

j.e.f.f

@pyrosmiley you can do this with two instances of the module (i.e.: make two configurations for MMM-MyCommute in your configure.js file), and then use built-in scheduling parameters to have one show in the morning and hide in the afternoon, and the second to hide in the morning and show in the afternoon. The first module will have your drive from home to work configured, for example, and the second will have the reverse configuration.

Does that make sense?

pyrosmiley

@j.e.f.f Yeah, that makes sense, although won’t that only let me do it with a single destination? I have four I’m trying to track, so for the second instance I need to essentially have four origins and a single destination.

j.e.f.f

@pyrosmiley yeah it’s a little kloodgy, but you can get it to work by making five instances.

Hi,

Sorry for english.
I can’t display icon of differents mode (driving, …) in my module. I can see just label and times. But it’s working well. I add a color but same problem. Thanks for help.

apikey: ‘API KEY’,
origin: ‘XXXX’,
startTime: ‘00:00’,
endTime: ‘23:59’,
hideDays: [],
showSummary: true,
colorCodeTravelTime: true,
moderateTimeThreshold: 1.1,
poorTimeThreshold: 1.3,
nextTransitVehicleDepartureFormat: “[next at] h:mm a”,
travelTimeFormat: “h [h] m [min]”,
travelTimeFormatTrim: “left”,
pollFrequency: 10 * 60 * 1000, //every ten minutes, in milliseconds
destinations: [
{
destination: ‘Avenue de la Tour Royale, 83000 Toulon’,
label: ‘Boulot’,
mode: ‘driving’,
waypoints: ‘83220 Le Pradet | Auberge Sainte Marguerite’
},
{
destination: ‘Gare de Toulon, 83000 Toulon’,
label: ‘Gare Toulon’,
mode: ‘driving’,
color: ‘#82E5AA’
},
{
destination: ‘AÃ©roport Marseille Provence’,
label: ‘AÃ©roport Marignane’,
mode: ‘driving’
},
{
destination: ‘31000 Toulouse’,
label: ‘Toulouse’,
mode: ‘driving’
},
{
destination: ‘33000 Bordeaux’,
label: ‘Bordeaux’,
mode: ‘driving’
}

@chassain-0 Your config works for me, but since you pasted code in the body of the message I needed to correct all of the quotes and such. Hard to tell if it was that kind of an error.

Try this config and let me know if it works for you (I picked a hotel that was nearby your destinations as the origin)

    {
      module: "MMM-MyCommute",
      position: "top_left",
      header: "Traffic",
      classes: "default everyone",
      disabled: false,
      config: {
        apikey: "...",
        origin: "La Villa Gallici - Hotel 5 étoiles - Aix en Pce",
        startTime: "00:00",
        endTime: "23:59",
        hideDays: [],
        showSummary: true,
        colorCodeTravelTime: true,
        moderateTimeThreshold: 1.1,
        poorTimeThreshold: 1.3,
        nextTransitVehicleDepartureFormat: "[next at] h:mm a",
        travelTimeFormat: "h [h] m [min]",
        travelTimeFormatTrim: "left",
        pollFrequency: 10 * 60 * 1000, //every ten minutes, in milliseconds
        destinations: [
          {
            destination: "Avenue de la Tour Royale, 83000 Toulon",
            label: "Boulot",
            mode: "driving",
            waypoints: "83220 Le Pradet | Auberge Sainte Marguerite"
          },
          {
            destination: "Gare de Toulon, 83000 Toulon",
            label: "Gare Toulon",
            mode: "transit",
            color: "#82E5AA"
          },
          {
            destination: "Aéroport Marseille Provence",
            label: "Aéroport Marignane",
            mode: "driving"
          },
          {
            destination: "31000 Toulouse",
            label: "Toulouse",
            mode: "driving"
          },
          {
            destination: "33000 Bordeaux",
            label: "Bordeaux",
            mode: "driving"
          }
        ]
      }
    },

@j.e.f.f thank you. But same problem with no icon. Maybe an error with apikey ?

j.e.f.f

@chassain-0 Probably not… a bad api key would just limit the module’s functionality, but you should at least see an icon. Can you verify that you have the file icon_sprite.svg in your MMM-MyCommute directory?

@j.e.f.f yes I have and check

Hi there i am having the same exact issue with the MyCommute module.
It was working fine until i got the notification of the update than no more displaying of my commutes and i see a spike in cpu usage to almost 100% .
I have cheked my google API key and it is current … i did the git pull commant do update and it did not fix the issue … i npm unistalled it removed it completely went back and git clone again and npm install and still the same issue
Like i said it was working just fine before and nothing has changed on the MM config file other than adding a couple of new modules.
What do you think it is happening??
Any help will be greatly appreciated and it really is a great module

richland007

LOL never mind i got it… I am retarted :) :)
i was testing it on Saturday and Sunday so it was just not displaying since i still had the 0 and 6 hide days LOL
thank you
Great work
