      Hi guys,
      I haven’t found anything that fit what I had in mind so I made it.

      Here is the link to the module if you want to try it: https://github.com/Sispheor/MMM-quote-of-the-day

      Features:

      • show a random quote on the screen
      • configure update interval
      • translation on the fly of the quote in the language of your choice
      • renew the quote from your module, the api or kalliope assistant

      Result (in english here)
      0_1521379174396_quote-of-the-day_english_example.PNG

      Integration with Kalliope assistant demo

      And the repo
      [card:sispheor/MMM-quote-of-the-day]

        @sispheor works like a charm and this is exactly what I was looking for.
        Thanks a lot.

        Mine is stuck at ‘Loading’. It did that at the time of loading a new quote.
        Am I missing something?
        If I restart pi the module is still doing the same thing.

          @jazzkitt UPDATE: it loads a new quote if I restart the mirror. I am using pm2 to restart the mirror.

            @jazzkitt Weird, I haven’t had this issue so far. Did you try with a small update delay to see if it’s a connection issue or something like that?

                @sispheor whatever it was, could probably have been temporary. I did not change anything but now it’s loading a new quote.

                Thank you so much. It DOES work like a charm.
