@Alvinger sounds great :)

Same for me, Fetching departures… forever, I have checked my ID:s on ResRobot and entered them in an url, to test.
Happy for help.

Installed this today, but it doesn’t work.

Does it work for anyone else? And if so - what did you do? :)

@nn1mda
I haven’t been active in the Magic Mirror community for some time but I just checked and for me it works without issues. Did you get your API key?

[Alvinger]

I’ve just pushed an update to github that resolves the scheduling issues some users have been experiencing. Please update the module. NOTE! There has been a breaking change in version 1.3 in that the config parameters have changed. See the start of this topic or the README.

@Alvinger
Thanks for your effort! I have updated the module using “git pull” and replaced my config with the sample you have, now the magicmirror doesn’t start at all. Can you find the cause? I have tried some different things but it doesn’t work. When I remove the module it works fine, so it’s something here…

{
   module: "MMM-ResRobot",
   position: "left",
   header: "Departures",
   config: {
    routes: [
     from: "740000003", to: "740000001",
    ]
    skipMinutes: 0,
    maximumEntries: 6,
    truncateAfter: 5,
    apiKey: "71a3996f-***"
   }
  },

@nn1mda
Sorry! There is a documentation error in the README.
The routes needs to enclosed by curly braces, like this:

{
   module: "MMM-ResRobot",
   position: "left",
   header: "Departures",
   config: {
    routes: [
     {from: "740000003", to: "740000001"},
     {from: "740000002", to: ""},
    ]
    skipMinutes: 0,
    maximumEntries: 6,
    truncateAfter: 5,
    apiKey: "71a3996f-***"
   }
  },

@Alvinger
Still don’t start. Updated again and restarted but still the same problem, don’t start. :(
Can you see anything else that is wrong here?

{
   module: "MMM-ResRobot",
   position: "left",
   header: "Departures",
   config: {
    routes: [
     {from: "740000003", to: "740000001"}, 
    ]
    skipMinutes: 0, 
    maximumEntries: 6,
    truncateAfter: 5,
    apiKey: "71a3996f-***"
   }
  },

@nn1mda
You are missing a comma after the closing brace “]” in routes.
The format is:

routes: [ {...}],

@Alvinger

Perfect! Think you need to update your Readme file with this as well.

Now the module loads, but stuck on “fetching departures” for 5 minutes now. The same problem I had before I hoped the update would solve.

Do you have any idea?

[Alvinger]

@nn1mda Strange, I’m running the latest version and it works (as of 1 minute ago) without any issues.
Have you tried running magicmirror from the shell? node serveronly
That way errors and status messages will be printed directly to the terminal making it easier to troubleshoot.

[Alvinger]

@nn1mda I copied your config above and fixed the comma. It does indeed show “fetching departures”/Inga avgångar which isn’t a big surprise as the API-key is masked. Using my API key it works as expected, see output below. You probably used an invalid API key, double check that it is correct.

[nn1mda]

Wow, I feel stupid now. Had to change project status for the API key from “test” to “released”. Didn’t knew that.

Big thank you for all your support!

Hi,

Is it possible to add/show which track a train departures from?

[Alvinger]

@off112 it should be quite simple. I’ll look into it.

[off112]

@Alvinger That would be wonderful. Thank you :)

[Alvinger]

@off112 I have just pushed an update that includes the departure track info. Try it out and let me know of any issues.

@Alvinger Västtrafik user here. I got the upgrade.

Either the line type icon or the track number is shown as “undefined”. Neither is actually visible. Screenshot below.

@Von-Sudden thanks, quick fixes aren’t always the best. I’ll have a look. Thanks for the info.

[Alvinger]

@Von-Sudden I just pushed a quick fix, please try it out.
