      Hi,

      I’m playing around with a dashboard style setup. I’m using MyCalendar and MyCommute (both great modules - thanks J.E.F.F.) and trying to work out how to use MyCalendar’s event broadcast feature to send that information to MyCommute so it can automattically add new ‘commute events’ so I don’t have to go into config.js for one-off events.

      Is this possible to do?

      Thanks in advance.

      Mark.

          That’s a great idea. I’d roughly propose the following workflow:

          • MyCalendar sends a notification with an array of events with defined addresses in the payload
          • My Commute displays next 1/2/3 events (configurable)
          • in the config you should be able to configure which travel modes you want to have displayed (transport, driving, walking,…). Maybe even with thresholds (walking <2km, transport: >1km, <10km, driving >8km, …)

            A ‘Google Free API’?

            You mean a free API from Google?

            Then, yes.

              So it seems that this already exists with this module. Forum thread here.

              However I can’t get it to work. Have configured everything correctly. Have MMM-Notifications showing my calendar is broadcasting events and tested with a couple different ‘trip keys’.

              Anyone else get it working?

              Edit - TrafficCal also seems to break the calendar modules (both default calendar and MMM-MyCalendar).
