MMM-quote-of-the-day

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)

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?

jazzkitt

@sispheor thanks for the response, I will give it a try and post the results.

@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.

@jazzkitt perfect! Thanks for the feedback !
