MMM-MyCommute

[smoysauce]

Hi I have gotten this module setup and working with destinations (see below), but am trying to get it to show times based on locations of calendar events setup like at the end of the help page but it doesn’t seem to want to show. Am I missing something? My calendar shows my events and locations but not sure if MyCommute is pulling it. I even used the example code from the module Git page and it still didn’t pull anything. Does this not work anymore? Any insight would be much appreciated!

{
        module: 'MMM-MyCommute',
        position: 'bottom_left',
        header: 'Traffic',
        config: {
                apikey: 'XXX',
                origin: 'XXX',
                startTime: '06:00',
                endTime: '20:00',
                destinations: [
                {
                        destination: 'XXX',
                        label: 'XXX',
                        hideDays: [0,6],
                        mode: 'driving',
                        alternatives: true,
                        showSummary: true,
                        color: '#82E5AA'
                },
                {
                        destination: 'XXX',
                        label: 'XXX',
                        mode: 'driving',
                        alternatives: false,
                        showSummary: false,
                        color: 'lightblue'
                }
                ],
                maxCalendarEvents: 2,
                calendarOptions: [
                        {
                        mode: 'driving'
                        }
                ]
}
},

@wagon40
I checked the apikey and Google is showing a count of apikey request. So that leads me to believe that it is a MM issue or module issue. Any help would be be great.

Hello to all,
I have the same problem as @wagon40 , can you help us?

The log of the MM shows:

[13:48:15.263] [LOG]    MMM-MyCommute: This API project is not authorized to use this API.
[13:48:15.268] [LOG]    MMM-MyCommute: This API project is not authorized to use this API.

I use the same Google API that uses “MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic” … could it be the cause of the problem?

Thanks a lot!

[Egnos]

Is anybody there? 🤔

[sdetweil]

@Egnos

This API project is not authorized to use this API.

seems pretty clear… the api Project you selected, doesn’t authorize use of the API…

open the google developers console, find the api project and check for the api… maybe Javascript

Dear @sdetweil.
Thee same behavior also has it @wagon40, I thought it was something about the module…but if you’re sure it’s just an API problem … I’ll do a check!

Thanks.

so Ive installed MyCommute and activated the directions api in google and Im getting this error in log…
[14:09:09.679] [LOG] MMM-MyCommute: You must use an API key to authenticate each request to Google Maps Platform APIs.

Im using the same API key for GoogleMapsTraffic.

heres my config section:

// My Commute Start

{
			module: "MMM-MyCommute",
			position: "bottom_right",
			config: {
    				apikey: 'API - Key',
    				origin: 'Start Address',
    				startTime: '07:00',
    				endTime: '23:30',
    				destinations: [
      					{
       				 	destination: 'Destination',
       				 	label: 'Engine Center',
       				 	mode: 'driving',
        				color: '#82E5AA'
      					},
					{
       				 	destination: 'Destination',
       				 	label: 'WHE - Office',
       				 	mode: 'driving',
        					color: '#82E5AA'
      					},
				]
			}
		}, 

any ideas?

Thanks

[sdetweil]

@banbutcher you have to sign on to the Google API console and enable the API.
And u must enter a credit card as part of that.

[banbutcher]

@sdetweil
if your taking about the API for directions, ive already done that. have entered credit card details too, needed that for GoogleMapsTraffic.

[sdetweil]

@banbutcher Google maps traffic uses the JavaScript map API. This module needs another api

[banbutcher]

@sdetweil

i have both turned on, at least im sure i do…

thanks again

[sdetweil]

@banbutcher did that solve the problem? I can’t see whatever is on that Google drive, as it tries to find it on mine

[banbutcher]

another question… as im running GoogleMapsTraffic as a full screen page i was wondering if its possible to show the quickest routes on the map between origin and destination?

[sdetweil]

@banbutcher I don’t know what API parameters are available or used by that module

[banbutcher]

its just a pic of the list of enabled Apis and directions is on there… no still hasnt solved problem.

is their a different key for directions api and another different key for the javascript map api?

[sdetweil]

@banbutcher no. Just have to use the same project and key to enable the apis

[banbutcher]

@sdetweil

thats what i thought, i have the right ones enabled and using the same key! :/

[banbutcher]

turns out i didnt have the address formatted correctly! took them directly from google maps and it worked great!

thanks,
Richie

is there any way of knowing if calendar events are being passed? Ive added this code to mine and nothing gets added to my commute:

      maxCalendarEvents: 2,
      maxCalendarTime: 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,
      calendarOptions: [
              {
              mode: 'driving'
              }
      ],  

am i missing something?
