MMM-ResRobot - Public transport information for Sweden

Alvinger

New version out with one minor change: transportation type icons are now displayed (to the left of the linenumber). All rail-bound types are displayed as trains (fa-train), all buses are displayed as bus (fa-bus) and all waterborne transportation is displayed as ship (fa-ship).

Thanks @Alvinger for an awesome module! However, I have a problem when I add more than one destination (to:). Displays only the result of the destination that appears first.

Here is my config.js:

{
    module: "MMM-ResRobot",
    position: "left",
    header: "Departures from Skanör C",
    config: {
        from: "740000950",   // ResRobot Station ID (or a comma-separated string of IDs)
        to: "740000003,740001586", // ResRobot Station ID of destination (or a comma-separated string of IDs)
        maximumEntries: 6,  // Number of departures to show on screen
        truncateAfter: 5,   // A value > 0 will truncate direction name at first space after  characters. 0 = no truncation
        apiKey: ”[My API-key]"  // Your ResRobot apiKey
    }
},

Hi,
you need to specify a station id in “from” as well. “from” is used to find the station’s departures, “to” is used to differentiate between destinations going from the “from” station.

Change “from” to ‘from: “740000950,740000950”’ to make it work as you want.

Of course! Thank you very much @Alvinger!

Hi!
I have a question /idea /request.

Would it be possible to set a limit in minutes in which the module won’t show departures before that limit?

For example I have a 15 min walk to bus/subway and during rush hour in Stockholm lots of departures are happening every minute. To be able to plan ahead and see when the bus is leaving I need to show many departures on the mirror to see that far ahead in time. Would it be possible to set a limit to not show departures happening earlier then 15 min ahead since it would not be necessary to know that the subway is leaving in 1 min when I can’t get her there in time to catch it? This would clean up the mirror and save some space on the screen.

@Klzow,
That shouldn’t be too hard to do. I will look into it. My current thinking is to introduce a new config value (something like “ignoreBefore=5” with default 0 for backward compatibility) Keep an eye on this thread for developments!

Alvinger

@Klzow,
I’ve uploaded a new version of the module. It has a new config option, skipMinutes, which allows you to skip departures occuring within skipMinutes from now. Feel free to try it out.

Hej!

Excellent module. Would it be possible to get it to work on Raspberry Pi 1 ? I get it fully working with my Raspberry pi 3 , but when I try with my 1 I get “connection refused” when starting midori…

… and when accessing the mirror via Chrome on my PC I see all modules loaded and working…

@FallandeGubbe,
I’m running it on a Raspberry Pi 1 B with 256MB so yes, it’s possible… :-)

You can’t run MagicMirror out of the box but I wrote a post in another thread about it:

@Alvinger Thanks for replying! Yes, I know that Raspberry Pi 1 needs some manual work :)

I followed the tutorial at https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/1183/how-i-got-my-magic-mirror-working-on-a-raspberry-pi-0-zero

and everything is working great! Until I try to install MMM-ResRobot. Something gets messed up apparently… But it works fine on my Raspberry Pi 3 … (same SD card, same image)

OK, I’ll keep investigating then, since you got it working!!
