In an effort to help users NOT have to edit files to get started on different platforms we have added a new set of start options

each has a start and a start:dev (to open the developers window)

start, start-dev as before,
but launches the X11 commands which work ‘most’ of the time

start:x11, start-x11:dev
explictly named using the x11 DISPLAY variable

start:wayland, start-wayland:dev
on the new PI os with the waylan compositor
explictly named using the Wayland WAYLAND_DISPLAY variable

start:windows, start-windows:dev
for windows users

"start": "npm run start:x11", "start:dev": "npm run start -- dev", "start:wayland": "WAYLAND_DISPLAY=\"${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:=wayland-1}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland", "start:wayland:dev": "npm run start:wayland -- dev", "start:windows": ".\\node_modules\\.bin\\electron js\\electron.js", "start:windows:dev": "npm run start:windows -- dev", "start:x11": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js", "start:x11:dev": "npm run start -- dev",

these can be found in package.json in the script:{} section

@sdetweil said in Github usage and module continuations:

yeh, I don’t think that will happen… we are a volunteer team, and have plenty of existing core issues to deal with… hundreds of additional modules just won’t be possible.

After seeing @KristjanESPERANTO list of modules, seeing that there are over a 1000, I think it is definitely not worth it to push everything to one repository. Especially with duplicates and/or obselete modules.

Although, seeing the list of “default” modules be extended with 3rd party “verified” modules with proper continues integration (tests / and build workflows so it gets automatically build with every software update) would be great.

@KristjanESPERANTO said in Github usage and module continuations:

I’ve started working on a new list of modules, and doing some rudimentary tests (you can see the result here). A few developers have already started work through the recommendations there. Even though the whole project is still in its infancy, but with that we have a process of assessing the quality of modules. Perhaps the whole thing will develop in the direction of module installer or app store. We will see. I would be delighted if you would take a look at the project and maybe join in.

I haven’t seen this yet, this looks pretty good. Awesome to see that there’s a different visual list to find modules and see when its last updated.

As I said in the starting post, it would be nice to have a general sense of direction on how to improve the entire module base and it gets easier and there’s more overview whats available. But also make it easier for people to develop their module and have it gain traction across the community.

@RoyCormi already do that.

@sdetweil I’m glad to see that this site response to bullying.
Bullying is unacceptable and they need to be accountable for it

I’ve been here in this forum for some time and I did not see this post.

I’m Luis, and I was born in Barranquilla, Colombia. I’m currently living Canada for about 11 years. I am 42.

I studied aeronautical engineering and I have a master in aviation management. I speak 5 languages so far. I work as a Reliability Analyst in the aerospace industry.

I started using MagicMirror in 2020 as a hobby, to learn a bit of coding. Now with all the support of the community, I have a dashboard for me and my family at home. It works as an agenda, I check my car information, music playing at home, the bus schedule, a camera and even sport results.

I’ll leave some pictures soon in “Show my mirror”.

Greetings,
Luis
