@LordBane Good day all, really love this module great work. i just found this and noticed that it was in fahrenheit but as a canadian i would like it to be in celsius. so i look at the code and found the lines that need updating for it to display in celsius.
to do this you will need to edit the file MMM-Ecobee.js (Location = MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Ecobee/)
update line 58 to be “var desiredHeat = Math.round(((thermo.runtime.desiredHeat / 10)-32)*5/9);”
update line 59 to be “var desiredCool = Math.round(((thermo.runtime.desiredCool / 10)-32)*5/9);”
update line 106 to be “currentTemp.innerHTML = Math.round(((device.capability[0].value / 10)-32)*5/9);”
once that is done refresh the Mirror and the number will be updated.Please let me know if this cause any problems for anyone.
Thank you

Hello all,
I am maintaining a fork of this module that works with the new API changes coming from Ecobee very soon as well as showing the temperatures in Celsius if your thermostat is set to celsius. I also fixed the module sometimes being far too aggressive on hitting the Ecobee api, re-requesting authorization, etc. I have a few other things I’m adding soon such as a config property for showing sensors or not as well as an option to display colors for those of us using this on a monitor without a mirror in front.
Any and all feedback is appreciated! https://github.com/parnic/MMM-Ecobee

Thank you for the updates to keep the module working with the new api changes! I am wondering though, is there anyway you could add the ability to hide the humidity and the set temperature in the thermostat readout? I would like to just have the actual thermostat display the current temp like the sensors do. On the original module I just commented out certain lines to make them disappear but the new code doesn’t look the same. Thanks again.

@colel83 Sure, it would be pretty simple to have a configurable to suppress certain attributes like humidity. It would be most helpful for me if you would create issues on the GitHub page to help track that.
I would also love to be able to set the temperature from the module for touchscreens, but that needs a lot more work since the core of how the module is communicating with Ecobee needs to change to enable that.

Awesome!! I looked all over on your github repository for a place to create an issue but I just could not find a way. A google search brought me here and since you had commented recently I thought I would just post here. I’ll head back over to the repository and see if I can find where to submit an issue. Thanks!

@colel83 My fault, looks like issues were disabled on the repository I cloned from. I enabled them now! https://github.com/parnic/MMM-Ecobee/issues

This would be awesome!
Unfortuntely, I can’t even load the MyApps section of the site. Does nothing to for me :( -
@ftap Not real sure how to help you on that one. It’s currently working for me. Either way, it’s Ecobee’s site, so you could try contacting their support maybe. Or a different browser perhaps.

I’m a little dense today – where do I find the API code to authorize?
-
@rmonkey It should all be explained on the screen when attempting to connect. There are steps listed along with an API code to use.
