@ianperrin … it might be worth to think about several rotating charts. Like for weekdays and a range of several months?

Good idea, could you add it as an issue in the Github repository so I don’t forget it?

@ianperrin I too am stuck on the authorization; I am not sure where to get a valid “web address” and “call back domain “ from to complete the API Application on the strava site To obtain my client ID and client secret numbers The local Host:8080/MMM-Strava/auto does bring up the same screen you posted, but the authorization process fails, I presume because I don’t have the correct client information.

@hattlegr thanks for testing and sorry to hear you’re having issues. Perhaps you can post your config and any logs from the mirror.

@ianperrin

Here is my config file

{
			module: "MMM-Strava",
			position:  "bottom_right",
			config: {
				client_id: "6054923"
				// client_secret: "tokin"
			}
		},

I got my client ID using the last series of numbers from the Strava URL after I log in.

I am not sure how to get through the Strava API application. to get client secret code.

Here is the error i get after running authorise from my localhost:8080 URL

{"message":"Bad Request","errors":[{"resource":"Application","field":"client_id","code":"invalid"}]}

On your personal Strava API website (strava.com/settings/api), you need to set a “callback domain” for your project. What did you set?

@lavolp3 I am not sure how to setup a call back domain.

@hattlegr You need to create an application in your strava account to use this module. Have you done that?

Go to www.strava.com/settings/api
Create an application. As far as I understand the only really important value is the callback domain. I GUESS (!!) this would need to be http://localhost OR the hostname (or IP) of your magicmirror, something like http://magicmirror
Then you get a client secret and access token, which you need for the further procedure.

The easiest way to authorise the module is

On the My API Application page update the application by entering localhost as the callback domain.
Once the Strava API application is updated, copy the client id and client secret from the same page, then use these to update the module configuration in the config.js file and restart the Magic Mirror.
Finally, on the Pi itself, browse to http://localhost:8080/MMM-Strava/auth/ and follow the steps.

If it helps, here are the settings I’ve been using to test the module:

@ianperrin The description above is very good and I have successfully got through this process.

I have added my new Client ID and Client-secret to the config file.
When I run my magicmirror I am asked to follow link to strava/auth.
I am able to select the module and click the authorize button. This brings me to an the authorize page with the three check boxes as described, when I click on the authorize button it brings me to the Stava login page. I am able to login, but the screen takes me to my dashboard page. with no home / back / close buttons. (it replaces the MM page). So I can’t get out of this stage.

Out of interest, I tried opening a browser using localhost:8080 once MM is running and get the same screen. When I click on the authorize button in the browser environment the process works fine and I am eventually taken back to the MM page and the strava data is working. However, when I shut down and star again the authorization is forgotten.

@hattlegr okay so we’re making progress. What is the output in the log file or the debug console in the browser? Once you’ve authorised the module, was a tokens.json file created in the MMM-Strava module folder?
