I’ll add some routine for graceful logging and retry in a few days. However, network stability issue couldn’t be solved by this module.

For staying the last photo displayed, It is not so easy as our hope.
Because, the URL of GooglePhotos has short term life - 1 hour. Without downloading and storing, the image will be expired. Anyway I’ll consider how to solve this problem.

Hi from npm start dev I have only this error
[ERROR] (node:1472) [DEP0005] DeprecationWarning: Buffer() is deprecated due to security and usability issues. Please use the Buffer.alloc(), Buffer.allocUnsafe(), or Buffer.from() methods instead.

Hi,
I’m using this module. Thank you for developing it. Everything seems to work normal except that it’s not scanning for new added or deleted photo from the albums.
I’m using the node serveronly command to start the MagicMirror2 without no errors reporting. I couldn’t figured with npm start dev. I have activated the debug, and only once it’s scanning the album.

Is this config parameter still working: scanInterval: 1000*60*10,?
As for me it isn’t and I saw it’s not described in readme doc. Or is there any other way to let the module scan automatically for new added photos?
I only found the way of refreshing the browsing page, which works but it’s not what I need.

Thanks!

This is my config:

{
			  module: "MMM-GooglePhotos",
			  position: "fullscreen_below",
			  config: {
					albums: ["TESTARE"], 
					updateInterval: 100 * 60, // minimum 10 seconds.
					scanInterval: 1000*60, //10 minutes
					sort: "new", // "old", "random"
					uploadAlbum: null, // Only album created by `create_uploadable_album.js`.
					condition: {
						fromDate: null, // Or "2018-03", RFC ... format available
						toDate: null, // Or "2019-12-25",
						minWidth: null, // Or 400
						maxWidth: null, // Or 8000
						minHeight: null, // Or 400
						maxHeight: null, // Or 8000
						minWHRatio: null,
						maxWHRatio: null,
						// WHRatio = Width/Height ratio ( ==1 : Squared Photo,   < 1 : Portraited Photo, > 1 : Landscaped Photo)
					},
					showWidth: 1080, // These values will be used for quality of downloaded photos to show. real size to show in your MagicMirror region is recommended.
					showHeight: 1920,
					//timeFormat: "YYYY/MM/DD HH:mm", // Or `relative` can be used.
			  }
			}

@dumitrudany
Not possible immediately as you wish. There is no way to detect whether you add/modify photos or not. Maybe frequent scanning would get a similar result, but it will consume and waste too many API quota. I can’t recommend it at all.

@Sean Thanks. I think if you can gracefully handle the bad connection (no matter where it’s from) and reconnect once the connection works again, the image being stuck won’t be an issue. Right now once the connection breaks the module can’t recover.

[gonzonia]

@Sean I’ve been looking into this, because I’m really don’t think it’s my network (no other module has this issue and there’s no similar problems anywhere else on the network). The first error doesn’t seem to be fatal, but the second is.

These are the errors I’m seeing in my Out.log

I came across this issue on gitub related to Google APIs. https://github.com/googleapis/nodejs-bigquery/issues/624
Not sure it’s related.

In Error.log I see

[bhepler]

@zolabus - That is merely a warning, not an error. That won’t be the source of the problem.

[sdetweil]

@bhepler Unhandled promise rejection.

I disagree… that means the code didn’t anticipate the error, and was waiting for the good completion which will never come…

gotta have a .catch() on every .then()

[A Former User]

Unhandled promise rejection is not the reason of this symptom, rather result.
Anyway,
I think Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established is not coming from program logic. It probably might be caused from unstable network status. (Especially handling TLS connection).
There is no one reason of that issue, so it has no simple solution to diagnose or solve.
I can’t represent this symptom, so hard to find the solution at this moment.

@gonzonia
For me;

reconnect once the connection works again, the image being stuck won’t be an issue. Right now once the connection breaks the module can’t recover.

When I force to break the connection then reconnect again, the module works again without issue. This module just loads an image from external google URL on each update schedule. So, if network is ok, image should be loaded and displayed. I suspect your router or proxy setting is interfering TLS connection between Google Server. but not sure.

Anyway, at this moment hard to find reason why yours are not working.
