Station monitor for the Hong Kong KMB.

This module is an extension of the amazing MagicMirror² project by MichMich which has inspired me to share my coding skills with others as well. Check it out, you know you want to :).

It's always nice to see mirrors using my work, so feel free to send me some screenshots of your implementations.

Lastly, why not join in on our discussions at the official MagicMirror² Forum?

v1.0.0

As of version 1.0.0, MMM-HK-KMB features language support for Chinese (zh) and English (en) mirrors.

A working installation of MagicMirror²

• npm
• request
• node-schedule

1. Navigate into your MagicMirror's modules folder.
2. Execute git clone https://github.com/winstonma/MMM-HK-KMB.git.
3. Execute cd MMM-HK-KMB.
4. Execute npm install.

Please note that this module auto-creates a module header which displays the name of the chosen Hong Kong local transport stop. It is therefore recommended not to add a 'header' entry to your config.js for this module.

This module automatically disappears from your mirror as soon as a station has stopped offering connections at night. It reappears as soon as your chosen station is scheduled to be served again.

This module has been programmed to allow for multiple instances. Simply add more MMM-HK-KMB config entries to your config.js file to display multiple stations and configure them according to your needs.

Sample minimum configuration entry for your ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js:

...

{
    module: 'MMM-HK-KMB',
    position: 'top_left',
    config: {
        stops: [
            {
                stopID: 'HO06-S-1250-0',		// Which stop would you like to have displayed?	
            }
        ]
    }
} 						// If this isn't your last module, add a comma after the bracket

...

Sample configuration entry for your ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js with optional parameters:

...

{
    module: 'MMM-HK-KMB',
    position: 'top_left',
    config: {
        stops: [
            {
                stopID: 'HO06-S-1250-0',		// Which stop would you like to have displayed?	
            }
        ],
        labelRow: true, // Show or hide column headers
        reload: 60000 	// How often should the information be updated? (In milliseconds)
    }
} 						// If this isn't your last module, add a comma after the bracket

...

1. Open your web browser and navigate to the KMB Mobile Page.
2. Use the top search field to find the Line that the stop will stopped.
3. Once you can see the stop in your browser, click the Map.
4. When a new page is being displayed, check the link (e.g. http://www.kmb.hk/chi/map.php?file=HO06-S-1250-0). Note the last portion of the link (e.g. HO06-S-1250-0)is the StopID you are looking for.
