MMM-uber and MMM-lyft

@kal said in MMM-uber and MMM-lyft:

ride_type: 'POOL

hi, i did the changes now it displays as “POOL in null min”

{
module: ‘MMM-uber’,
position: ‘top_left’,
header: ‘Uber (DC)’,
config: {
lat: xx.xxxx, // use your exact pickup loaction
lng: xx.xxxx, // use your exact pickup loaction
uberServerToken: ’ ',
ride_type: ‘POOL’
}
}

@shashank That means that no uber pool is available in your area. This is an error case that I haven’t dealt with explicitly.

To confirm this is the error, you need to look at the console log. You’ll see the ProcessUber returns ‘Time’ and then an object. Go through the object and look for pool as a ride type. It should look like this:

You can also try to order an uber pool on your phone to confirm that one is not available.

@kal
ok, Thank you , let me check

[shashank]

@kal hi, i tried changing the location even then POOL not working, i mobile same location POOL is working

[kal]

@shashank can you post the log from your console? I want to help you resolve this issue but I need more information.

Anything related to uber in your log should be posted. Please post in detail the things that you have tried. Any config file changes, etc.

Just saying that it’s not working does not help me help you

[shashank]

@kal hi, Earlier i had issues using POOL, mention ride_type: ‘uberPOOL’ , now working fine

[kal]

@shashank that’s weird…the API calls out ‘POOL’. Do you mind if I ask what country you are in?

@kal Singapore

@kal Thank you very much for creating these modules! For some reason I am unable to get both the Uber or Lyft module to return any results. The only thing displayed is their respective logos and “Checking for Uber/Lyft status…” messages. It’s been displaying this for hours now. Is there anything special I need to do once I have registered as a developer and gotten the server tokens?

[kal]

@Sarb Can you post your config file and log? It sounds like a REST API failure…

[Sarb]

@kal Please see my config entries below:

	{
		module: 'MMM-uber',
		position: 'top_right',
		header: 'Uber & Lyft',
		config: {
			lat: <>, 
			lng: <>, 
			uberServerToken: '<>',
			}
	},
	{
		module: 'MMM-uber',
		position: 'top_right',
		config: {
			lat: <>,
			lng: <>,
			uberServerToken: '<>',
			ride_type: 'uberXL',
			}
	},
	{
		module: 'MMM-lyft',
		position: 'top_right',
		config: {
			lat: <>, 
			lng: <>, 
			clientID: '<>',
			clientSecret: '<>',
			}
	},

Sorry for being such a noob but I am not sure where to pull my log file from. I ran a quick search and I read that it is supposed to be in a folder named pm2 in my pi folder but I do not see a folder with that name (even when showing hidden items). I did however notice this in my console window:

Whoops! There was an uncaught exception…

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

@Sarb your config looks good, but I want to see your log before I open an issue.

We need to view your JavaScript console. Access the mirror directly or whitelist the IP of another computer to access via a browser. Then, go to https://IP.of.Raspberry.Pi:8080 in Chrome and View>Developer>JavaScript Console.

See this this thread for more info.

@kal Please see below:

Filtering for Uber

Filtering for Lyft

@Sarb Two things:

1. Make sure that your uberServerToken and clientID/clientSecret don’t contain the greater/less than characters in your config (these things: <>). Those are placeholders. For example, if your uberServerToken is abc123 then the line in your config should read uberServerToken: 'abc123', without those characters.

2. If that doesn’t work, can you go into the .js file for uber and un-comment this line. Then post the log. You should be looking for one that says ERROR...

@kal

1. I can confirm my uberServerToken and clientID/clientSecret don’t contain the greater/less than characters in my config file. I only used those so I wasn’t displaying them. :)

2. Please see screenshot below:

[kal]

@Sarb from the docs it looks like you supplied an invalid code. Can you regenerate your token and try again?

Also, what country are you in?

[Sarb]

@kal Looks like regenerating the uber server token did the trick! Not sure how it could have been invalid the first time since I copy and pasted it. Thank you very much for your help, however I am still seeing the same issue with the Lyft module. I refreshed my Client Secret and copied the new string, but it did not fix anything. I also commented out the same line in the lyft js file. Screenshot below, I do not see any errors. I am located in Southern California if that helps.

[kal]

@Sarb Are you sure you uncommented / that’s all of the Lyft outputs? There should be more.

[Sarb]

@kal I can confirm that I uncommented line 143 of the MMM-Lyft.js file. Could the issue possibly be tied to the error I sent earlier that I see in my console window? Copying once more so it is easier to find.

@Sarb you’re encountering an access error and that exception is a symptom, not a cause. My advice would be to regenerate Lyft ID and Secret for your config or perhaps register as a new user and get a new ID.
