MMM-TracCar

AgP42

Yes, they said it will be free minimum 12 month, so let’s see !

In fact with the auto-start I didn’t see the log initially…
To have clear logs only with TracCar I keep only this module on my config.js file and here are the console logs accordingly :

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

> magicmirror@2.4.1 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
> sh run-start.sh

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues
Launching application.

The internet connection is working fine (all others modules can connect).
But it’s true that I had to change the internet configuration of the MagicMirror in order to use Remote-Control module.

To be sure this is not the cause of the error on your module, I re-use the inital config.js file, but still not working (but with different IP adresse on the log…) :

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

> magicmirror@2.4.1 start /home/pi/MagicMirror

And here is my module configuration :

{
module: 'MMM-TracCar',
position: 'bottom_right',
config: {
url: "demo5.traccar.org", // Traccar Server URL (free server @ http://demo5.traccar.org )
username: "blabla@blabla.org", // Traccar Account username (email) (btw, there is a free account option too!) :)
pass: "passworddddd", // Traccar Account Password
gmapid: "keyxxxxxx", // Google Apps key
map_width: "300", // width of the map element
map_height: "400", // height of the map element
map_border_radius: "10", // border radius of the map element (optional)
map_shadow_color: "POWDERBLUE", // shadow color of the border element (optional)
}
},

Maybe the error is coming from this line ? :

url: "demo5.traccar.org", // Traccar Server URL (free server @ http://demo5.traccar.org )

But impossible to write the full URL due to the “//”…

Also of course when I connect from my PC to the http://demo5.traccar.org with my username and password, I can see correctly the location of my phone (so the “TracCar” part is well configured)

I hope I gave you enough infos :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thanks a lot !

AgP42

Solved ! :flushed_face:

Oups…

I “just” try with the full server address, including the http://, and it perfectly run…

So my mistake, sorry !

Great module - thank you for sharing.

Is there anyway to start the Map in Satellite View as default and also adjust the default Zoom level. I want it to be a wider zoom from the current default.

Thanks,
G

iwaldrum

Bump - Is there a way adjust the default zoom level. I find that it is too zoomed in most cases.

maxs

Same question here about default zoom level. any option?

justjim1220

@maxs @iwaldrum you can add zoom: 75; to your custum css file
Or you can use your keyboard and press Ctrl > - to zoom out or ctrl >Shift > + to zoom in

@justjim1220 said in MMM-TracCar:

zoom: 75;

Sorry to tel, but that’s not what I meen. I just want to zoom out the traccar map window. I can’t find any think in the traccar.js file. I just don’t know. I’m absolute beginner.:smiling_face_with_halo:
@Mykle1 Thanks for sharing the link.
