I swear I tried finding an NHL module and couldn’t so decided to try making it myself! Heh, well thanks for making one!

Description:

Hello, I have created a module that shows the NHL schedule and scores for the previous day, today, and (optional) days in the future. I copied the brilliant NFL score module than proceeded to make numerous modifications to enable it to work with the NHL and their feeds.

Several of the features of the NFL module has been removed or have gone untested (follwed team/voice/statistics) so this module is pretty basic in comparison but accomplishes what I was looking for.

I am a total newb to javascript and have not coded in a node.js architecture before so I’m sure I’ve done lots wrong or have lots of mistakes that could use correcting. If you see some, feel free to submit back or just fork and take that responsibility away from me :)

Thanks for looking!

Cool, thank you!

Hello, I am looking to create a module that does something simple. It’s going to query a URL for a JSON file than output the result of some property of that file. So I’m looking at ‘weatherforecast’ and a couple other modules because they seem to be doing something similar for what I want to achieve.

I’m trying to understand the “manual” https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/tree/master/modules

And I’m stuck here:

*getScripts()

Should return: Array

The getScripts method is called to request any additional scripts that need to be loaded. This method should therefore return an array with strings. If you want to return a full path to a file in the module folder, use the this.file(‘filename.js’) method. In all cases the loader will only load a file once. It even checks if the file is available in the default vendor folder.*

So I can create some .js with some actions and I put this script within this method and it’ll ‘load’ it?

Ok, seems reasonable. Let’s look at weatherforecast.js:

Ok, it’s returning a file called ‘moment.js’. The comments say “// this file is available in the vendor folder, so it doesn’t need to be avialable(sic) in the module folder.”

So I look in the vendor folder, there is a moment folder and a vendor.js file that appears to link ‘moment.js’ to the actual file “moment-with-locales.js”.

Then I look at moment.js and what is it doing? What does moment.js do? Is there better documentation then trying to read the javascript?

Thanks!
