MMM-Fuel

[DamienWakeford1]

Hi guys I’m from South Africa, I have just started playing with the magic mirror today I have managed to the calendar weather and news for South Africa I would really like to add fuel prices and email notifications to it but don’t know how and can find any videos showing how to do it just that they did it if that makes sence

@DamienWakeford1 this module supports only germany and austria, not sure if it is possible to get the same information for your country via an api

@DamienWakeford1

Do you have a favorite station or brand and do they have a website with live feed of the prices? If they have an API, maybe I have something, if it’s accessable.

Chaps,
Pethaps again a newbie question, but how do I configure this module for Austria, spritpreisrechner?
Anything ‘special’ to consider?
I do not get an error message for the config.js, but I also do not get a populated list for my Diesel.
Do I need to specify the provider, or does the module do the look up based on my location?
Any hint/help is greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
XR

@xray2607 you need to specify provider: 'spritpreisrechner', also spritpreisrechner changed the api, so you might want to use the develop branch git checkout develop

Hey @ all,

I think I have a small issue with the MMM-Fuel but I don´t know how to solve it. I installed the module as written in the manual but unfortunately it doesn´t show anything on the expected area (bottom_left)
Below the snippet of the code within the config.js-file.

{
			module: "MMM-Fuel",
			postion: "bottom_left",
			config: {
				provider: "tankerkoenig",
				api_key: "API-KEY",
				lat: 52.9863800,
				lng: 9.8433800,
				types: ["diesel", "e5"],
				sortby: "diesel",
				radius: 10,
				updateInterval: 900000,
				max: 5
				}
		},

Any ideas how I can fix it?
Thanks in advance

I’ve been using the module for a while, but since this morning I’m not getting any posts.

[strawberry 3.141]

@killing-joke you wrote postion instead of position

@bjoern which provider (tankerkoenig or spritpreisrechner) just checked it and I’m getting results

[bjoern]

sorry, my mistake. I had no provider deposited. after I deposited Tankerkoenig everything works again now.

Thank you very much. I checked a lot of times the comma and the spaces and braces but didn´t checked the writing.
It works fine. Cheers.

I refactored the module and switched to nunjuck templates.

I’m looking for people who are willing to test prices

• tankerkoenig germany
• spritpreisrechner austria

how to test:

• if not already done, clone the repository to your modules cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/ && git clone https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Fuel.git
• go to the module cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Fuel
• run git checkout develop
• run npm i
• test various config options

Hey, I have just installed the module, but I realized one minor mistake. The distances in the table have too much numbers after the decimal point. Where can I change it to just one decimal number?

[othomys]

Hello,

I use the tankerkoenig-api to let me see the German fuel prices. Unfortunately, the special characters (ä, ö, ü, ß, …) are not displayed correctly. At which point can I adapt the encoding?

Thank you in advance.

[dazza120]

Is there anyway to to get this for UK fuel prices?

[strawberry 3.141]

@rakostamas I try to adjust it in the next update.
@othomys I think that’s a problem with the nunjuck templates that I didn’T figure out yet.
@dazza120 is there a public api for it?

[dazza120]

@strawberry-3-141 doesn’t look like the UK does have an api for fuel prices

@strawberry-3-141
I reinstalled the mirror and installed the module again, however it stopped working. (It’s shows only “loading”) I’m using the same config file as before. Every module beside this working :/ Is it possible, that there is a bug in the module?

[strawberry 3.141]

@rakostamas which branch are you using? Develop or master? On develop I’m working on a refactoring, so bugs are definetly possible. Master was probably not changed in a year.

Any errors in the console?
Did you install the dependencies?
Can you post your confit part without the API key and a bit modified gps position?

[rakostamas]

@strawberry-3-141
here is my config:

               {
			module: "MMM-Fuel",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				provider: "spritpreisrechner",
				lat: 47.041194,
				lng: 15.453377,
				types: ["e5", "diesel"],
				radius: 6,
				max: 4,
				sortBy: "e5",
				open: true,
			}
		},

The mirror only displays the header and loading…
I have installed it in the following way:
