Compliments region size

[0livia]

@sdetweil yes it is nothing wrong with building and maintaining as long as it is straight forward (like linux) but as i said it is not straight forward.
Anyway do you know what could be the problem now, as my mirror has the original working config js which worked until i started to make changes to the complement module? It is not even showing up on the screen. no error message nothing, so the config file should be ok, but why there is not showing up the module?

Maybe this is a bug?

[sdetweil]

@0livia not a bug.

we removed some libraries that were discontinued. many module developers didn’t know how to describe their module dependencies, so they didn’t.

futar has this problem

now mm crashes cause the lib is missing

if u had used my upgrade script I would have fixed this for you.

I wrote this 6 releases ago to help users work around the problem(s)

@sdetweil thank you for the script! I do not know if it was available on that time when the update came out, so i did the upgrade as it was in TFM. And boom it crashed, i tried to figure out what was the problem even reading log files. I was ok fak it. As my parents kept asking me about the mirrror so decided to rebuild again. And the thing is this project runs a few xears now and it has not changed the “user interface” to make it easier to setup the modules. You know what, the project should develope in a better way to make this project available to ppl who do not have those programing skills. I mean it would be great for example if all the settings would be available in the modules and the user can choose what he/she activate with a toggle button or what so ever, and not playing around with config files and npm install npm start and all tha crazy stuff. As i said it is ok for programers whom actually write the modules or the core system. But if you want bormal users to participate in the project than i think it should be a good way to reduce the complicty to configure a module or install a module.
Anyway do we know why the compliment module gone? :)

[sdetweil]

@0livia why gone? bad css?

rename custom.css css.save

remove the classes from config entry
(do one at a time)

mm config easier

u can try my MMM-Config module which presents a form for mm and module config.
https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Config

but it’s not perfect, as I try to discover things not documented by module authors.
most of the time it’s great, but sometimes it crashes too.

@sdetweil no there is no custom.css file - removed
config.js file has been overwritten with the working one.

so basicly the config and all files are remain the same as it was working earlier.

That is why i do not understand what is going on because all the working files were loaded, so the compliment should appear on screen.

That is why I asked is it a kind of bug.?

[sdetweil]

@0livia I do not know…

show.me the mm startup messages from npm start or pm2 logs --lines=50

pm2 flush will throw away all prior messages

[0livia]

@sdetweil i do not use pm2, when i have got time i ll give you log this is next year as im going to greece to get ddfdsking orange with the truck. So happy new year guys
