MMM-MyWastePickup (Toronto waste collection schedule)

[twosquirrels]

This has always been my most reliable and dead simple module. However, I reinstalled my raspberry pi yesterday and MMM-MyWastePickup no longer works. It sits at “Loading…” forever. I know how to edit the schedule.csv file as I’ve been doing it for over a year. It just refuses to work and I have no idea why.

{
  module: 'MMM-MyWastePickup',
  position: 'top_left',
  header: 'My Waste Collection',
  config: {
    collectionCalendar: 'Custom'
  }
},

@twosquirrels any errors show up either in the log or in Electron’s console?

I’m loving this simple little module! I’m just trying to work out how I show only collections and not the blank days in between. I’ve tried adjusting the config variables but don’t seem to be getting the desired results. Ideally I only want to see the next two upcoming collections (what ever they may be)

		module: 'MMM-MyWastePickup',
		position: 'top_left',
		header: 'Wheelie Bin Collections',
		config: {
			collectionCalendar: 'Custom'

Hi, how can i change the date format? I live in Germany. Thank you.

@KamiSchami My module doesn’t support this. But if you want to modify it for your needs, the lines in particular are 116 and 118:

      //determine how close pickup day is and formats accordingly.
      var today = moment().startOf("day");
      var pickUpDate = moment(pickup.pickupDate);
      if (today.isSame(pickUpDate)) {
        dateContainer.innerHTML = this.translate("TODAY");
      } else if (moment(today).add(1, "days").isSame(pickUpDate)) {
        dateContainer.innerHTML = this.translate("TOMORROW");
      } else if (moment(today).add(7, "days").isAfter(pickUpDate)) {
        dateContainer.innerHTML = pickUpDate.format("dddd");     // here...
      } else {
        dateContainer.innerHTML = pickUpDate.format("MMMM D");     //...and here
      }

This will help figure out your formatting options:
