@patex said in Stuck in development:

populate the standings object yourself

If i would send the entire teams data how would i go about doing that? thx btw for the answer

So im trying to build my own module without any real programming experence. With help from This post and MagicMirror-Module-Template i have gotten really really far but right now im stuck, im getting the results from the api in the console instead of it printing on the screen
Any help would be greatly appreciated

SHL.js

Module.register("SHL", {
	defaults: {
		updateInterval: 60000,
		retryDelay: 5000
	},

	requiresVersion: "2.1.0", // Required version of MagicMirror

	start: function() {
		var self = this;
		var dataRequest = null;
		var dataNotification = null;

		//Flag for check if module is loaded
		this.loaded = false;

		// Schedule update timer.
		this.getData();
		setInterval(function() {
			self.updateDom();
		}, this.config.updateInterval);
	},

	/*
	 * getData
	 * function example return data and show it in the module wrapper
	 * get a URL request
	 *
	 */
	getData: function() {
		var self = this;

		var urlApi = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1";
		var retry = true;

		var dataRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
		dataRequest.open("GET", urlApi, true);
		dataRequest.onreadystatechange = function() {
			console.log(this.readyState);
			if (this.readyState === 4) {
				console.log(this.status);
				if (this.status === 200) {
					self.processData(JSON.parse(this.response));
				} else if (this.status === 401) {
					self.updateDom(self.config.animationSpeed);
					Log.error(self.name, this.status);
					retry = false;
				} else {
					Log.error(self.name, "Could not load data.");
				}
				if (retry) {
					self.scheduleUpdate((self.loaded) ? -1 : self.config.retryDelay);
				}
			}
		};
		dataRequest.send();
	},


	/* scheduleUpdate()
	 * Schedule next update.
	 *
	 * argument delay number - Milliseconds before next update.
	 *  If empty, this.config.updateInterval is used.
	 */
	scheduleUpdate: function(delay) {
		var nextLoad = this.config.updateInterval;
		if (typeof delay !== "undefined" && delay >= 0) {
			nextLoad = delay;
		}
		nextLoad = nextLoad ;
		var self = this;
		setTimeout(function() {
			self.getData();
		}, nextLoad);
	},

	getDom: function() {
		var self = this;

		// create element wrapper for show into the module
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		// If this.dataRequest is not empty
		if (this.dataRequest) {
			var wrapperDataRequest = document.createElement("div");
			// check format https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1
			wrapperDataRequest.innerHTML = this.dataRequest.title;

			var labelDataRequest = document.createElement("label");
			// Use translate function
			//             this id defined in translations files
			labelDataRequest.innerHTML = this.translate("TITLE");


			wrapper.appendChild(labelDataRequest);
			wrapper.appendChild(wrapperDataRequest);
		}

		// Data from helper
		if (this.dataNotification) {
			var wrapperDataNotification = document.createElement("div");
			// translations  + datanotification
			wrapperDataNotification.innerHTML =  this.translate("UPDATE") + ": " + this.dataNotification.date;

			wrapper.appendChild(wrapperDataNotification);
		}
		return wrapper;
	},

	getScripts: function() {
		return [];
	},

	getStyles: function () {
		return [
			"SHL.css",
		];
	},

	start: function () {
		this.sendSocketNotification("GET_STANDINGS")
	},

	// Load translations files
	getTranslations: function() {
		//FIXME: This can be load a one file javascript definition
		return {
			en: "translations/en.json",
			es: "translations/es.json"
		};
	},

	processData: function(data) {
		var self = this;
		this.dataRequest = data;
		if (this.loaded === false) { self.updateDom(self.config.animationSpeed) ; }
		this.loaded = true;

		// the data if load
		// send notification to helper
		this.sendSocketNotification("SHL-NOTIFICATION_TEST", data);
	},

	// socketNotificationReceived from helper
	socketNotificationReceived: function (notification, payload) {
		if(notification === "STANDINGS"){
			// set dataNotification
			this.dataNotification = payload;
			this.updateDom();
		}
	},
});

node_helper.js

var NodeHelper = require("node_helper");
const shl = require("open-shl");
const client = shl.connect({
    clientId:"XXXX", 
    clientSecret:"XXXX"
});

module.exports = NodeHelper.create({
	
	
	teamStandings: function() {
			  client.season(2017).statistics.teams.standings({teamIds: []})
			     .then(teams => {
      			for (i = 0; i < 14; i++) {
        			a = i + 1;
       			  console.log(a + ": " + teams[i].team_code);
     				 };
				     var standings = {};
				     this.sendSocketNotification('STANDINGS', standings);
 			 });
		},
	// Override socketNotificationReceived method.

	/* socketNotificationReceived(notification, payload)
	 * This method is called when a socket notification arrives.
	 *
	 * argument notification string - The identifier of the noitication.
	 * argument payload mixed - The payload of the notification.
	 */
	socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
		if (notification === "SHL-NOTIFICATION_TEST") {
			// console.log("Working notification system. Notification:", notification, "payload: ", payload);
			console.log("Working notification system.", notification) 
		}
		if (notification === "GET_STANDINGS"){
			this.teamStandings();
		}
	},

	// this you can create extra routes for your module
	extraRoutes: function() {
		var self = this;
		this.expressApp.get("/SHL/extra_route", function(req, res) {
			// call another function
			values = self.anotherFunction();
			res.send(values);

	},

	// Test another function
	anotherFunction: function() {
		return {date: new Date()};
	}
});

@ninjabreadman Thanks for the explanation!!

Is it possible to create a module with a existing Nodejs Client?

I trying to create a module for stats from the Swedish hockey league, im new to programming but im trying to learn as i go since there is such good documentation on creating a module, but im wondering one thing
The Api from SHL already have a npm client and as i understand the files in the “lib” subfolder handles all the connection.
How do i make so my module to load these files?

Is Bitcoin Cash available?

@Jopyth I figured it out myself but thanks for the help, i used MMM-ModuleScheduler and put this

                 {
        module: 'MMM-ModuleScheduler',
        config: {
            notification_schedule: {
                notification: 'UPDATE_SL',
                schedule: '*/5 * * * *',
                payload: {
                    type: "UPDATE_SL",
                    title: 'sl!',
                    action: "notification"
                }
            }
        }

to make it update every 5 minutes

@Jopyth Holy shit it works, thanks man
the reason the author doesnt think the timer is a good idea its because the API have an maximum amount of calls you can make in a month which is 30 000, but if i wanted to go against his advice and make it update every 5 minute or so, how would i do that

@Mykle1 thanks for the tips unfortunately i dont have a button to test this with.

@tomyboy96 said in PM2 do not start at bootup on my RPI 2? Works fine on my RPI 3.:

errors in crontab file, can’t install.

do you have the @reboot before pm2 start mm.sh if you dont try with that
