      New user here using Docker MM on Synology NAS and displaying it on 10" Android Tablet with “Fully Kiosk Browser”.

      Installed with the docker-compose image at This repository suggested on the official Documentation page. The 2nd docker container of MMPM didn’t install automatically the module MMM-mmpm on MagicMirror folder as the repository instruction noted… is not useful and I can do nothing to put it to work.

      It’s important this MMPM or I can do it well with the MagicMirror docker only? With Portainer I can enter to the shell with a shortcut and execute the commands npm ,check etc…

      Any Maintenance or full installing guide for MM in docker? Raspberry Scripts didn’t work here.

        @pritikin71 you don’t NEED MMPM to run MM…

        the docker container already has MM installed, you don’t need my scripts…

        because many modules use additional libs, after you put them (git clone) in the modules folder mapped to the docker container, you must docker exec into the MM container and to the module folder as seen from inside the container, and run npm install there… NOT on the docker host.

          @sdetweil Thanks Sam, ok I will erase MMPM docker then and run MM docker alone. I read sometimes suggestions to install PM2 or Electron, these are needed for docker or not?

            @pritikin71 no npm/electron are not needed when u run the docker container

            you just point any browser at the container exposed port

            the container is running headless in server mode
