it’s apparently nowhere in the popular search results for debugging MM.

I’ll write up a simple tutorial and post it so that it is easier to find using the forum search function.

Great idea Mykle1! Thanks in advance for the effort :-)

The function is not that new.
I’m using it for a few months now, I’d guess.

Ok, but it’s not available in MM version 2.1.1 or 2.1.2 (I think) so that would only make it available in the most recent version (2.1.3). I did say relatively new. :-)

Minor update

Fixed wording for phases of the moon.
Also, a not so hidden config option for image choice.

cd MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Lunartic

German translation added

Thanks to our friend @tbbear, MMM-Lunartic now has German translation. And, when you choose German as your language, the date will be properly formatted for you. Again, thanks to @tbbear. Well done, Robert!

It appears the API that I am using for this module has reached its limit for the month of November. I apologize for that. It’s actually my API being hosted by a free service herokuapp.com. The drawback is that it has such a low limitation. I’m not willing to pay for higher usage. So, as I see it, I have 2 options if I want to keep this module alive.

I have the PHP file that does the computations for the API. I’d be willing to host the API if someone would be willing to help me set it up locally and administer it. That doesn’t seem very likely but the offer stands.
I can look for another public API to use for the module. This is probably the more logical option but it’s not as cool as the first.

So, to those millions of MMM-Lunartic users, I will start looking for another API this very moment. In the meantime, the module will be functional again on December 1 when the current API resumes.

API update

I’ve acquired nearly double the amount of free API usage for my Lunartic module. So, no more loss of API in the 3rd week of every month. :-)

So here we are on the 24th of January and my API for this module is still up and running. Miracle of miracles! With only 7 more days left in the month I still have 47% of my free dyno hours. Looks like this problem has been solved. :-)
