MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor-py3

This an extension for the MagicMirror. It provides a callmonitor for FRITZ!Box users alerting them about incoming calls.

The original version has not been maintained for many years. Especially, it relied on python2. This fork should work with python3 and the MagicMirror version 2.22.

Installation

1. Navigate into your MagicMirror's modules folder and execute git clone https://github.com/drtorchwood/MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor-py3.git. A new folder will appear navigate into it.
2. Execute npm install to install the dependencies.
3. (Optional) Execute sudo apt-get install python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev && sudo pip install fritzconnection to allow access to your FRITZ!Box phone book and recent calls. This can take a few minutes.
4. Activate the callmonitor of your FRITZ!Box by calling #96*5* on a connected phone (Fritz Fon App won't work).

Using the module

To use this module, add it to the modules array in the config/config.js file:

modules: [
	{
		module: 'MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor-py3',
		position: 'top_right',	// This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
		header: "Recent calls", // This is optional
		config: {
			// See 'Configuration options' for more information.
		}
	}
]

Loading your contacts

There are currently two different ways to get this module to displays the name of the caller, rather than the number. They are both optional, and you can combine them.

1. Load a .vcf file, for example exported contacts from your phone (see options marked with VCF)
2. Access your FRITZ!Box contacts via the TR-064 API (see options marked with API)

The latter will also load recently missed calls, which happened before you started your mirror.

If you are interested in having a list with all active calls as well, check out MMM-Callmonitor-Current-Call.

Configuration options

The following properties can be configured:

Option	Method	Description
numberFontSize	any	Font size of the phone number displayed in the alert. Possible values: any int or float Default value: 30
vCard	VCF	Absolute path to a .vcf file for number to name conversion. Possible values: string Default value: false
minimumCallLength	any	There is no real way to tell whether a call was missed or not because voice mails count as connected calls. You can however change the time a call has to be for it to be considered not missed. You should probably use a value as long as your voice mail. Default 0 means any call gets added to the history. If you enter a time larger than `0`, any call that is longer than that time, is not added to the list. Possible values: time in seconds Default value: 0
password	API	Password to access the FritzBox API. (optional) If you enter this, it directly loads your phonebook(s) and recently missed calls from the FritzBox. If you have specified a username for your access to the FritzBox, see below. You can also create a different user from the one you use for accessing the FritzBox (see this guide: en / de). You will need to check View and edit FRITZ!Box settings for this user. Possible values: string Default value: ""
username	API	Username to access the FritzBox API. (optional) Specify the username if you have one set up for the FritzBox access (see password option). Leave out if you have no username (default). Possible values: string Default value: ""
reloadContactsInterval	API	How often contacts are reloaded from the FRITZ!Box. Set to 0 to disable reloading contacts, they are only loaded once after the start of the mirror. Possible values: time in minutes Default value: 30
deviceFilter	API	You can enter the names of your real phone devices here (optional). You should be redirected to the list after you login here. Example: deviceFilter: ["firstphone", "secondphone"]. Possible values: array of strings Default value: []
showContactsStatus	any	If no recent calls are displayed, a small symbol shows how many contacts are loaded in your phonebook. A small warning sign appears if any error occurs when importing contacts from vCard or the FRITZ!Box. Possible values: true or false Default value: false
maximumCallDistance	any	Time after which calls get removed from the list. Possible values: time in min Default value: 60
maximumCalls	any	Maximum number of calls to be shown in the list. Possible values: any int Default value: 5
fritzIP	any	IP Adress of your FRITZ!Box. Possible values: IP Address Default value: 192.168.178.1
fritzPort	any	Port of your FRITZ!Box callmonitor (you should not have to change that) Possible values: any int Default value: 1012
fade	any	Fade old calls to black. (Gradient) Possible values: true or false Default value: true
fadePoint	any	Where to start fade? Possible values: 0 (top of the list) - 1 (bottom of list) Default value: 0.25
debug	any	Should debug information be displayed in case of errors? Possible values: true or false Default value: false
