I want to display txt files from outside at the bottom

[sdetweil]

@史新瑞 said in I want to display txt files from outside at the bottom:

start > somefile Txt

you are missing the . somefile.txt

also Linux is case sensitive
so somefile.Txt is not the same as somefile.txt

@sdetweil Thank you, sir. Is my problem easy to solve? In addition, it’s nearly 23 o’clock here, so I will turn off my computer and use my mobile phone to receive your messages. However, in this way, I will not be able to correct it as quickly as possible according to your method

[sdetweil]

@史新瑞 i just installed the module…

can u show me the config.js for this?

the filePath parm is assuming the file is located in the same module folder…

[史新瑞]

@sdetweil Sorry, I can’t show it to you now, because my mother doesn’t allow me to use the computer at this time in the evening. It is already 12 o 'clock here, so I can only send it to you tomorrow morning, that is, August 15, around 9 o 'clock in Dong8 district. I am very sorry, and thank you very much for your guidance

[sdetweil]

@史新瑞 no problem

here is my test config.js

{
 	module: 'MMM-SimpleText',
 	position: 'top_center',
 	config: {
			text: {
			  'value': 'Hello World!'
			},
			fontURL: {
			  'value': 'Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif'
			},
			fontSize: {
			  'value': 'xx-large'
			},
			fontStyle: {
			  'value': 'italic'
			},
			color: {
			  'value': '#FFFFFF'
			},
			filePath: {
				'value':"../../config/config.js"
			}
		}
},

and a screen shot

@sdetweil Thank you, but my problem now is that the weather module is not working properly
