How to get MMM-transitfeed working on a new installation of MagicMirror (based on @sdetweil’s assistance)
These are the steps I went through to get the module working after encountering version mismatch errors:
Note that I was starting with a clean install of Raspberry PiOS. I made no changes prior to the steps outlined below:
First, I installed MagicMirror using Sam Detweil’s script:
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
Next, I installed the transitfeed module:
{
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone https://github.com/bnitkin/MMM-transitfeed.git
}
Then this reset the libraries:
{
cd ~/MagicMirror
rm -rf node_modules
git checkout package.json
git checkout package-lock.json
npm run install-mm
}
I installed the electron rebuild package:
npm install @electron/rebuild
Next, I reset the module info:
{
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed
rm -rf node_modules
git checkout package.json
git checkout package-lock.json
npm install
}
At this point, I installed gtfs:
{
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed
npm install gtfs
}
And lastly, I rebuilt sqlite3:
{
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed
../../node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
}
Here I added the default config from the module’s github page to my config.js and started the mirror. It worked!
Many thanks to Sam for his patience, knowledge, and caring assistance.
