It’s been 24 hours and still working fine! Thanks!

@sdetweil just got the update, I’ll let you know what I find. Thanks!

Based upon the display, it stopped on me last night. I was running mm serveronly so I could see the dev output in browser. I couldn’t find any errors. It could have stopped when scheduler is set to hide all modules. I did see this in the console after this mornings schedule to show modules:

Whoops! There was an uncaught exception...
TypeError: Cannot read property 'statusCode' of undefined
    at Request._callback (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-nest-status/node_helper.js:20:25)
    at self.callback (/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/request/request.js:185:22)

    at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:211:7)
MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

In the past I don’t think I ever had a conflict between scheduler and nest status.

I tried to open the console via remote but wasn’t able to. Sorry.

Bummer, mine has stopped as well.

I also have been having the same issue with this module. It worked well for months. I’ve just been restarting and haven’t had time to chase down the errors.

I have 2nd gen echo’s

That changed worked for me. I also had issue of white screen on my phone. After the change above and restarting phone, works fine now.

@jrotondo I’m using AlexaOnOff which allows me some control over MM.

Here is the thread.

I’ve noticed recently that the new weather module in the develop branch stops updating. I got this error in the developer console:

2cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/https://api.darksky.net/forecast/mykey/mylatlong?units=us&lang=en Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 503 (Service Unavailable)
0.0.0.0/:1 Failed to load https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/https://api.darksky.net/forecast/mykey/mylatlong?units=us&lang=en: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://0.0.0.0:8080' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 503.

If the service is unavailable shouldn’t the weather module update once it is available?

If I restart MM, the module will update properly and work for about a day.

@mykle1 Great, thanks, I’ll take a look at the voice modules and see what I can come up with. I also just found MMM-ImageFileWatcher which looks like it may do a lot of what I was looking for.

@justjim1220 thank you, I just looked at it again. I thought it was pulling a daily menu from somewhere, not a way of displaying a specific recipe. Where do the recipes come from?

Hi, my MM is actually a kitchen display. Currently it is showing calendar, weather, news, nests, and background images. I’m looking for the best way to shutdown current modules and display a recipe full screen. My first thought was to send the web page link via MagicRemote and use pages to switch to a page that would only show the page in an iframe. However, it looks like most pages don’t like to be displayed in iframe. Second thought was to save page as an image, and have MM look for a file in remote location and if it finds it, close other modules and display the image. Has anyone done something like this already, or have a suggestion for a better approach?

Thanks!

@sdetweil Thanks, I got it. I needed to get rid of “this”. So the correct test was:

if (!(oldAwayState === awayState) && (awayState === 'home')) 

@sdetweil thanks, I’ll give that a try. I’ve been writing the variables to the consol log but it’s not quite as helpful.

Is there something wrong with this:

if (!(this.oldAwayState === awayState) && (this.awayState === 'home')) 

maybe they are both not strings or something?

That’s what I thought. But it still fires off every two minutes, there must be an error in the logic.

Thank you @sdetweil ! So that helps me to create the module level variable. Sorry for dumb question, but how to I read/write it from within my process data function? I thought using this.oldAwayState would be the module level.

Hi,
I’ve created a small module to turn my monitor off when my nest realizes I’ve left the house. This uses a notification from mmm-nest-status. Since I’m a noob I don’t understand how to keep track of a variable between notifications. I’m guessing I need something in start: ? Here is the code:

Module.register("controlMonitor", {
	defaults: {},
	notificationReceived: function(notification, payload, sender) {
		if (notification === 'MMM_NEST_STATUS_UPDATE') {
            this.processData(payload);
		}
	},
	processData: function(data) {
		var awayState = 'unknown'; // 'home', 'away'
		// check for away state
		if (data.devices && data.structures) {
			var sId = Object.keys(data.structures)[0];
			var sObj = data.structures[sId];
			awayState = sObj.away;
		}
		var oldAwayState = this.awayState;
		this.awayState = awayState;
		// if state has changed and new is away then shut monitor off
		if (!(this.oldAwayState === awayState) && (this.awayState === 'away')) {
			//this.sendNotification("REMOTE_ACTION", {action: 'MONITOROFF'});
				console.log(this.name + "awayState " + awayState + "oldAwayState " + oldAwayState + " " + this.datetime4log());
		}
		// if state has changed and new is home then turn monitor on
		if (!(this.oldAwayState === awayState) && (this.awayState === 'home')) {
			//this.sendNotification("REMOTE_ACTION", {action: 'MONITORON'});
				console.log(this.name + "awayState " + awayState + "oldAwayState " + oldAwayState + " " + this.datetime4log());
		}
	},
	datetime4log: function() {
		var d = new Date();
		return (d.getMonth()+1) + "/" + d.getDate() + "/" + d.getHours() + ":" + d.getMinutes() + ":" + d.getSeconds();
		}
});

What’s happing now is the home state is firing off every 2 minutes for every notification. I need a module level oldAwayState variable, so the when I get the update I can test against it to only fire off an update if there is a change.

Thanks

@surger13, I did it similar in way as @sdetweil but with extra steps:frowning_face: . I set up a new directory hpmv in the module folder with a symbolic link to the mounted directory in my case ~/Pictures/hpmv. Which required changing the imagePaths setting in config. I had challenges with getting the link to automount after rebooting. I finally got it to work without errors with this entry in /etc/fstab:
//my.Nas.Ip.Addr/Photos /home/pi/Pictures/hpmv cifs guest,x-systemd.automount,vers=1.0 0 0 and by also using raspi-config setting to wait for network on boot.
