  While trying to debug modules, I’ve been given quite mixed feedback regarding what to use to print messages to console, on either local system or in remote browser DevTools. So far, I have found the only reliable way that always seem to print something in the browser, is using console.error(). The others have varied. I’m on MM v2.2.2 (master).

  @strawberry-3-141 Thanks for taking a look. The ignoreModules section was a holdover from one of the eleventeen-thousand configurations I tried thinking I was missing something @sdetweil It works as advertised. Thanks to both of you for the quick help.

  @sunilkvr { module: “MMM-AssistantMk2”, position: “top_right”, config: { useWelcomeMessage: “brief today” } }, this simple config should work just for testing and making sure the module loads. I ended up fixing mine by rolling back to grpc 1.2 and gcc7 then rebuilding the binaries. Took about an hour on my pi 2, but its up and running now.

  @kruf so two things to test with the calendar URL, open a browser on the pi, and put in the URL… it should download the ICS file if not, u need to solve this part. Mirror does not run as any particular user, so it needs access without credentials (unless they are part of the actual url) I helped another user who did some download process, and then use the ics file locally, and had a similar problem. it turned out the ics reader is expecting windows line ends (cr+lf, \r\n), but the file had only unix line ends (lf, \n). so he had to do a unix2dos conversion as part of the download process

  Thanks for the replay I have now got it to work with the module (MMM-jsonTable) that @retroflex gave me. I did just create a PHP script that convert my info to JSON so it was easy to insert the info now. @Sean Thanks for the code, it look very nice but I did not got it to work It was something about the “sourceURL” it did not like but I guess I have done something wrong. Also it was a little easy with the JSON table because I was going to insert alot of info from my weater station.
