MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic freezes Magic Mirror

Yep same I use cron job but would rather not have too, also this might be where all my ram goes as well, great if someone can look at this module

[sdetweil]

anybody want to try my updates

1. load script once, once dom created
2. improve process , handle lost config error

https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic

rename your existing folder out of the way
then, from MM/modules folder, git clone my repo, and restart MM
no changes to module config

@dazza120 said in MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic freezes Magic Mirror:

git pull https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic

no… cannot do that… cannot merge mine with the original
what i said in my prior most

rename your existing folder out of the way
then, from MM/modules folder, git clone my repo, and restart MM

u must git clone my repo … so you had to rename the old folder out of the way

from MagicMirror/modules

mv MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic.original

then

git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic.git

@sdetweil done mate testing it now

[dazza120]

It’s taken a day or so before it went black, but something is burning the ram it hovers on 4% to 5% free memory

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 hm… i am using the default config with my geolocation
and its runs for days and days…

[dazza120]

@sdetweil what is the update times on the maps? Are you using a Pi?

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 default update cycle is 900,000 milliseconds… so, 15 minutes

I am using an odroid XU4, faster than pi…

[dazza120]

@sdetweil I take it, it has more ram than the Pi too? Which could be why you’ve not experienced it
