MMM-BMW-OW API Issues

@philie sudo apt install -y libnss3

is this a new MM install? did you install with my script or manually?

@sdetweil
there have been many libraries missing.
its the server version as LXC Container for proxmox. https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

I’ve deployed this for testing purposes. Guess I’m switching on propper Pi installation though!
Thank you very much for your help!

sdetweil

@philie but, if its the server version, you should be doing npm run server… server has no display… you will need to change the MM config to allow apps outside localhost(inside the lxc container) to connect to MM

then use a host browser to connect to http://container_ip_address:MM_port (8080 by default)

@sdetweil ahh ok I didn’t know there is a difference to restart… :(

however now we’re talking:
I could figure out and fix the error in the node_helper.js. Now its working and this is the output:

root@magicmirror:/opt/magicmirror# npm run server

> magicmirror@2.26.0 server
> node ./serveronly

Still no functional MMM-BMW-OW though.

@philie said in MMM-BMW-OW API Issues:

Cannot find module ‘request’

yes…

starting 2 years ago we have been removing no longer supported, or needed libraries
see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later

this documents the procedure for finding the missing library name and installing it in the module folder…

many module authors didn’t know how to document dependencies, and well, it just worked…
lots of modules haven’t been updated in a while, SO… we users ge to do the update OVER AND OVER…

there are 8 missing libraries now I think…

@sdetweil As mentioned, I have now also switched to a Raspbery Pi 3, installed MM cleanly using your script and then changed the openweathermap API onecall to 3.0 in the MMM-BMW-OW module, executed npm install request in the module folder, and now the module is running. Thank you very much for your support

sdetweil

@philie awesome… thanks for the feedback
