The full config file will definitely help. You also have one more small typo here -
{
url: 'htpps://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ME%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics'
},
that should probably be ‘https’ rather than ‘htpps’ but I don’t think this should be breaking your config.
Just completed my survey - hope it’s not too late to get involved!
Yes, the Save feature is now working for me. Thank you very much! :)
I still get an error when I use Power > Restart MagicMirror
The software does restart correctly. Seems like a false error.
I would like to volunteer to help moderate the forum. I’m very new here, but I have many years experience moderating and hosting football discussion forums. I host and maintain a handful of websites and I’m experienced with a lot of forum back-end management.
I spend the majority of my day in front of a computer screen and I’m here very frequently. Again, I’m still new to Github, but I’ve forked some code and shared some original modifications. I’m in the process of refreshing my coding skills specifically to develop ideas for my mirror. I enjoy helping people develop skills and answering questions as best I can.
This is a great, friendly community and I have learned a ton in a very short time. I would be happy to invest time to help keep things clean and orderly. Also, my wife is a huge Doctor Who fan. ;)
I have a multi-page website I’m displaying in iFrame. Is there a simple way to scroll the page down after some amount of time passes, or as prompted by a socket notification?
Per @strawberry-3-141’s suggestion I’m relocating this discussion from the NFL Module thread. I’ve managed to parse data from
http://www.espn.com/nba/bottomline/scores
using a python program that stores team names, scores, winners and game times. I can produce this result on the command line:
My current goal is to learn how to execute @strawberry-3-141’s suggestion:
“Help: you can run the python script in from inside the node_helper and read the output, then send the data to your module with a socket notification”
I have a lot to learn. I’ve figured out a lot about socket notifications and sending notifications and data between modules. I think I can probably handle that part. But I have zero confidence in the process of calling the script and reading output from within the node_helper. I suspect running the script from node_helper will look similar to this suggestion:
https://github.com/paviro/MMM-Facial-Recognition/blob/master/node_helper.js#L11
But the variables are a mystery to me and I don’t know how to read the result. If anybody can link to a tutorial that will help me understand this process I will be very grateful! I would much rather learn to do this for myself than have somebody do the work and write the code for me. Thank you!
Congratz to the new mods and thanks for your consideration!
Still a long way to go, but I’ll keep working at this till I make something work! :)
The parser is available here if anybody wants to play around with displaying the data.
https://github.com/in-a-days/MMM-NBA/blob/master/MMM-NBA.py
It’s the first original code I’ve written in a very long time so forgive me if it’s not pretty. ;)
Still a work in progress! I’ve managed to pull score data from the espn site, but exchanging the data between the python script and node helper is really challenging me. I was trying to just reverse engineer one of the other scoring modules, but both my parsing method and lack of javascript experience have made this really really difficult. I’ve been studying several tutorials and working on building simple modules from scratch just to make sure I understand all the socketNotification exchanges.
Now that I’m getting a feel for it, I’ll probably re-write the parser in javascript. It’s a slow process, but I plan to stay at it until it’s done or someone else makes it first. :)
