No Web UI with MMM-FastNotes

rvnbrg

host: “192.168.78.30”, // address of raspberry pi in local network, need for access to WEB UI
port: 5000, // port on host where UI will be accessible via web browser

Where “192.168.178.30” is the ip adress of my raspberry

rvnbrg

@sdetweil

So I try to access the Web UI with: 192.168.178.30:5000

192.168.178.30

that is an odd home network address…

if you do
ip addr

from a terminal window, is that the address you get?

rvnbrg

@sdetweil This is what I get

xavier@raspberrypi:~ $ ip addr

ok, so you should be able to connect to MM using the port from config.js

http://192.168.178.30:8080

rvnbrg

@sdetweil Yes that works to see the MM on my desktop web browser.
Only the FastNotes WebUI does not load

sdetweil

@rvnbrg ok, looking at the code, it looks like there is a python script that provides that UI

so, in the module folder do

python3 FastNotes.py --host 192.168.178.30 --port 5000 --debug

rvnbrg

@sdetweil That gives me this:

xavier@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-FastNotes $ python3 FastNotes.py --host 192.168.178.30 --port 5000 --debug

ImportError: cannot import name ‘escape’ from ‘jinja2’ (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/jinja2/init.py)

that explains the error

rvnbrg

@sdetweil how can I resolve that?
