Thank you for this quick reply.
I see, so no solution for this update…Any idea of equivalent module to replace MMM-PIR-Sensor ?

@selyjohns
hi can you try
Cd MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor
And then
npm i magicmirror-rebuild
Then
./node_modules/.bin/MagicMirror-rebuild

It might work.

@sdetweil @tanvir586
Yes…Already tested. No fonctionnal

[sdetweil]

@selyjohns correct.

the author of the magicmirror rebuild tool said he will not fix it for this module.

as the module is in archived status

@sdetweil

I generally suggest the same as bugsoutnet…The best way would be to use one of the other PIR modules.
But i also found an solution which worked in my setup. I used the sdetweil script to install the current version of MagicMirror.
In the module directory of MMM-PIR-Sensor you need to delete package-lock.json and the node_modules folder:

rm -rf ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor/node_modules
rm -rf ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor/package-lock.json

Then you need to replace the whole content of package.json file with the following one that uses the MagicMirror-rebuild library of bugsounet…

{
  "name": "Magic-Mirror-Module-PIR-Sensor",
  "version": "1.1.0",
  "description": "PIR motion sensor module for the Magic Mirror.",
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "git+https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor"
  },
  "keywords": [

    "smart mirror",
    "PIR-Sensor",
    "module",
    "motion"
  ],

	  "postinstall": "node_modules/.bin/MagicMirror-rebuild"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "onoff": "latest",
    "magicmirror-rebuild": "latest"
  }
}

Then you need to run npm install

npm install

@wishmaster270 did u try the upgrade script?

it does delete both file and folder and then npm install

@sdetweil Hi, i did a fresh install and added the module manually. I do not use MMM-PIR-Sensor but some other users had the same problem with MMM-Gestures (which i do not use either). Did a clean install of MagicMirror on a development Pi with your script and added modules manually.
