    • RE: Display JSON data from an api

      The big elephant in the room here is that Panic’s StatusBoard did this and is now dead. They discontinued their iPad app in November, and users from all over the world are looking for something to replace it with. MagicMirror is the perfect replacement, but it lacks the most popular module: The Graph Module. When the Graph Module in Statusboard is fed just one number, it displays the number with a name, instead of the graph. I think a good solution would be to base further MMM development based on the same JSON structure that has already been established in the StatusBoard community. Examples:

      {
      
      "graph": {
      
      "title" : "IKKE BEHANDLET",
      
      "total" : true,
      
      "datasequences" : [
      
      {
      
      "title" : "Datasupport",
      
      "datapoints" : [
      
      { "title" : "Antall", "value" : 3 }
      
      ] } ] } }
      

      This will in StatusBoard look like this:
      0_1488397034636_datasupport-ikkebehandlet.jpg

      If however, the same module is used, and pointed to this JSON-file:

      {
      
      "graph" : {
      
      "title" : "Prod-Redigering : antall saker opprettet",
      
      "total" : true,
      
      "datasequences" : [
      
      {
      
      "title" : "Uke 29",
      
      "datapoints" : [
      
      {"title" : "Mandag", "value" : 0 },
      
      {"title" : "Tirsdag", "value" : 4 },
      
      {"title" : "Onsdag", "value" : 0 },
      
      {"title" : "Torsdag" , "value" : 3 },
      
      {"title" : "Fredag", "value" : 2 }
      
      ]
      
      }
      
      ]
      
      }
      
      }
      

      That will produce this nice Column Graph:

    • RE: Display JSON data from an api

      @yawns Thanks for the reply!

      Well, the JSON-file would be hosted on a server, so a http-path to the file would do the job for sure. A common way to do this that I’ve seen is installing Dropbox on a server, and sharing out the JSON file via a public link.

    • RE: Display JSON data from an api

      @cowboysdude There is no API. In this case it’s just shell scripts that write out JSON files. I could modify the shell script to write out the files anyhow I want.

      @cowboysdude

      Thanks, yes. Do you happen to know of a module that successfully loads data from a JSON file? Seems like such a simple thing to do.

      and @mortenbirkelund
      Thanks for the suggestion. I don’t have the skills to make this, yet.

      Did you get any traction with this? I’m looking for similar solutions; Display fields from JSON formatted file.

    • Column graph to replace StatusBoard by Panic. (JSON data into graphs)

      We’ve been using Panics Statusboard for years. And love it. Panic decided last year to discontinue the product. So we’re switching to MM now. What StatusBoard did really nicely was having a “module” that you configure to a JSON file path. And it will render the graph data into nice column graphs, like this:

      0_1488202365486_statusboard.jpg

      If there’s only one value/digit, it displays it as a number. But if there is multiple datapoints, it will display that as a graph. And a simple flag setting lets you configure between columns graphs or regular graphs.

      The data input format looks like this:

      {
        "graph" : {
          "title" : "Soft Drink Sales",
          "datasequences" : [
            {
              "title" : "X-Cola",
              "datapoints" : [
                { "title" : "2008", "value" : 22 },
                { "title" : "2009", "value" : 24 },
                { "title" : "2010", "value" : 25.5 },
                { "title" : "2011", "value" : 27.9 },
                { "title" : "2012", "value" : 31 },
              ]
            },
            {
              "title" : "Y-Cola",
              "datapoints" : [
                { "title" : "2008", "value" : 18.4 },
                { "title" : "2009", "value" : 20.1 },
                { "title" : "2010", "value" : 24.8 },
                { "title" : "2011", "value" : 26.1 },
                { "title" : "2012", "value" : 29 },
              ]
            }
          ]
        }
      }

    • RE: Mirror supplier in Norway?

      @dakipro Lets just say that it would be inappropriate for NRK to endorse a specific vendor.

      Crating £125

      Delivery Norway £240

    • RE: ipWhitelist HowTo

      @mochman

      Thanks, I do see a inet6 address with the command ifconfig.

      I tried to add 10.0.0.95 to the config with no success :-(

      But @xer0design’s tip worked!
