MM Starts but no screen after upgrade

sdetweil

we’ve been cleaning up the mm core tubing for 2 years now. this module was using one of the libraries we supplied, but didn’t declare it.

if you had used my upgrade script I would have handled this problem for you

see

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later

in the module folder do

npm install request

@sdetweil really appreciate your help, that has worked. I will definitely follow your guides moving forward. Out of curiosity when i ran that command i got the following :

pm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported
npm WARN deprecated uuid@3.4.0: Please upgrade to version 7 or higher. Older v ersions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be pro blematic. See https://v8.dev/blog/math-random for details.
npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://git hub.com/request/request/issues/3142

added 32 packages in 18s

196 packages are looking for funding
run npm fund for details

Do i need do anything here or can i ignore?

@geekhouri nothing we/you can do. a library uses a library which uses a library which was upgraded. but we can’t make anyone upgrade, and mm is a special env. it’s not a public website doing banking. it’s just showing some info pulled into. your house .

so, all you can go is ignore it. oh, and don’t do audit fix. it forces a bunch of changes, some of which break existing code, with no fix available.

@sdetweil thank-you very much, really appreciate the support on this…

I have sleep problems and have therefore found the time to get rid of the dependency on request for this module 😅. Let’s see when @jmwyds accepts my PR. It seems he hasn’t been active for a while.
