MMM-ModuleScheduler - Module Schedules and Notifications

plumcraft

Hi,

Great idea, i’ve tried your module but i does not work for me. I might have missed a step or something.

I did put in the config file your module (after download and setup with npm install))) :

{
   module: 'MMM-ModuleScheduler'
},

And then :

{
  module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
  position: 'top_right',
  config: {
    module_schedule: {from: '0 14 * * *', to: '0 18 * * *' },
    apikey: 'xxxxxxxxx', // private; don't share!
				pws: 'pws:IBOULOGN39', //culemborg
				hourly: '1',
				fctext: '1',
				fcdaycount: "5",
				fcdaystart: "0",
				hourlyinterval: "3",
				hourlycount: "2",
				alerttime: 10000,
				alerttruncatestring: "french:"
			},
			classes: 'for_all default'
		},

It’s 13:30 and the weather is still showing on the mirror.

Thanks for your help

You’re missing the trigger ;)

Here do this:

{
module: ‘MMM-WunderGround’,
position: ‘top_right’,
classes: 'scheduler',
config: {
module_schedule: {from: ‘0 14 * * *’, to: ‘0 18 * * *’ },
apikey: ‘ad100f1e35ae51d2’, // **private; don’t share!**  
pws: ‘pws:IBOULOGN39’, //culemborg
hourly: ‘1’,
fctext: ‘1’,
fcdaycount: “5”,
fcdaystart: “0”,
hourlyinterval: “3”,
hourlycount: “2”,
alerttime: 10000,
alerttruncatestring: “french:”'
}
},

As @cowboysdude said, you need to configure the classes option to trigger the scheduler.

As you already have the classes option set up for what looks like @paviro 's MMM-FacialRecognition module I would suggest trying the following config.

{
  module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
  position: 'top_right',
  config: {
    module_schedule: {from: '0 14 * * *', to: '0 18 * * *' },
    apikey: 'ad100f1e35ae51d2', // private; don’t share!
    pws: 'pas:IBOULOGN39', //culemborg
    hourly: '1',
    fctext: '1',
    fcdaycount: '5',
    fcdaystart: '0',
    hourlyinterval: '3',
    hourlycount: '2',
    alerttime: 10000,
    alerttruncatestring: 'french:'
  },
  classes: 'for_all default scheduler'
},

Please do report back if you are successful because I haven’t tested the compatibility of the two modules :)

Opps didn’t realize you were using Facial Recognition… LOL

Thanks @ianperrin !!

@ianperrin @cowboysdude

Thank you both, it works with paviro’s MMM-FacialRecognition module.

Okay I have another curve ball for you… how about … the ability to turn the mirror off and back on with this? :)

plumcraft

+1, would be great to add this feature :)

+1, be really nice if it not only just dimmed the running modules, but actually shut off the monitor.

cowboysdude

@dr4ke616 Well you could actually do it with a straight cronjob … something like this…

55 6 * * * /home/pi/monitor_on.sh

And off the same way :) It’s like making your own schedule…

@cowboysdude thanks for pointing that out. Thats a better idea I didn’t think of :)
