@naththedude
You mean, your MM is trying to re-auth again(every 5 mins.) right?
First, you should check whether you have token.json in root directory of MMM-GooglePhotos.

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos
cat token.json

It should be something similar with this;

{"access_token":"...","token_type":"Bearer","scope":"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/photoslibrary.readonly","expiry_date":1533304224450,"refresh_token":"..."}

Your simptom would happen when token.json is missed.

token.json should be generated as result of auth_and_test.js

Hey @Sean ,

Thank you for your quite reply, you are correct the token.josn file was missing. Looks like I needed to run ‘node auth_and_test’ as sudo for this file to be created. Once I did this the photos started to appear :) just need to configure the size and position now.

Thank you again.

Regards

Nathan

@naththedude good to you.
The only thing I worry is, if you run as sudo there could be a possibility of a problem to refresh token with proper authority.

@kivlow show me what is seen when you execute node auth_and_test.js. (Do not need to use sudo)

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos
node auth_and_test.js

@kivlow
Hmmm… very weird.
Could you try this?

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos
nano test.js

Then, copy below and paste

'use strict';

const request = require('request')

const Auth = require('./auth.js')

var authConfig = {
  keyFilePath: "./credentials.json",
  savedTokensPath: "./token.json",
  scope: "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/photoslibrary.readonly"
}

const auth = new Auth(authConfig)

auth.on('ready', (client) => {
  console.log("auth_and_test started.")
  var token = client.credentials.access_token
  console.log("token:", token)
  function getAlbum(client, pageSize=50, pageToken="") {
    var url = 'https://photoslibrary.googleapis.com/v1/albums'
    url = url + "?pageSize=" + pageSize + "&pageToken=" + pageToken
    console.log("url:", url)
    request.get(
      url,
      {
        json:true,
        auth: {"bearer": token},
      },

      (err, res, body) => {
        console.log("response:", body)
        if (err) {
          console.log("Error: ", err)
          process.exit(1);
        }
        var found = 0
        for (var i in body.albums) {
          var album = body.albums[i]
          console.log (album.title, " : ", album.id)
          found++;
        }
        if (body.nextPageToken && found > 0) {
          getAlbum(client, pageSize, body.nextPageToken)
        }
      }
    )
  }
  getAlbum(client, 50)
})

Then, close and save (Ctrl+X and Y and enter)
Then try.

node test.js

And show me the result.

Ok. Now I think I’ve found what’s wrong.
https://github.com/eouia/MMM-GooglePhotos#get-auth-and-albumid
You seem to have missed 4. Search for "Google Photos Library API". Select the correct result and click Enable. (You may need to enable "Google Plus" also.)
Do 1~4 again.
You can access your developer console with URL in the screen also.

@kivlow Good to you. It’s my pleasure. Have a nice day.

Hello again ;p
I have one question - how to show full picture but in spec dimension.
I use top_right.
I set display 1280x720 and from google 1920x1080.
I see picture from google but many is cut :/

[A Former User]

@kivlow
mode:’cover’ will cover your entire target area, but cropped.
mode:’contain’ will show entire image but resized(with black borders)

[kivlow]

:thumbs_up:
works fine :]

@bchabbert
Hmmm… I think, your oAuth was failed. But I cannot figure out what was wrong at that moment. I suggest you to try again from scratch.

[bchabbert]

@sean
Hi Sean,

From scratch ? i delete module and reinstall it ?

[A Former User]

@bchabbert
I think it was not the fault of the module itself. You’d better remove all your current google project and create new one then try again.

[bchabbert]

@sean
thank you for your help :)
I have recreate a new google project and it works now :)

Bérenger.
