Can you ask him who his supplier is (and the glass manufacturer)? I can probably get a local guy (in Barcelona) to get it from the distributor directly

Just follow the tutorial and you’ll be fine

or buy a mouse jiggler

There’s no need for that attitude. Please desist as this is a forum for helping people. I also had this problem so it isn’t isolated. It may not be possible to add a keyboard and mouse to the screen and use the screensaver utility.

Well the token.ini file should be altered to include the correct credentials. That’s why you are getting the error. Fix that and you may get somewhat further. I manually entered the info to get mine to (partially) work.

Me too - I can get one here in the UK, but would like to get one near Barcelona.

@tismepaulo Actually, I got it working by firstly not using ssh and running this directly on the display using a terminal and secondly not using sudo. Populated the tokens.ini with the results from the results of the script - and changed the access of the tokens.ini file to 666 - re-ran again the setupAccess.py and it said all was good.

having said that - while I get the authorisation page from Fitbit, I got zero values on the MM. The fitbit account page says that I have access, but initially no data comes through… Next thing I did was running getData.py (in the python directory) I do get a good response:

{"message": "credentials.ini exists", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Reading from credentials.ini", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Read of credentials.ini successful.", "type": "status"}
{"message": "credentials.ini exists", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Reading from credentials.ini", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Read of credentials.ini successful.", "type": "status"}
{"message": "tokens.ini exists", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Reading from tokens.ini", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Read of tokens.ini successful.", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Making API call", "type": "status"}
{"message": "API call okay", "type": "status"}
{"message": "Tokens valid", "type": "status"}
{"values": {"data": 4684, "goal": 10000}, "resource": "steps", "type": "data"}
{"values": {"data": 0, "goal": 1}, "resource": "floors", "type": "data"}

So I think it is at least reflecting accurately now what the fitbit site is showing for steps, but is incorrect for distance - still showing 0 (maybe because I’m using KM not miles?)

@PointPubMedia Don’t you need to just put the ones you don’t want to rotate in IgnoreModules? I haven’t installed it, but that looks like the intent…

Hi,

I understand what you say, but the gpio pins really aren’t heavily used in the MagicMirror - really so far for buttons and pir. I suggest this following forum as a better place to look as you’ll get many more people who are using the general features of the raspberry.

@yawns thanks. The date says a day out I.e the 5th for today (the 6th). I wasn’t aware of only a daily update, so it must be working OK. Thanks
