MMM-Pir

[Peter]

@gonzonia is your Magic Mirror working now with MMM-PIR?
My MM stopped turning on after updating MMM-PIR.

@Peter So it’ll go off but the PIR doesn’t work to turn it back on? Mine is working. Try re-installing. Here’s the config I’m using.

  module: 'MMM-Pir',
		  position: 'top_left',
		  classes: 'SceneFamily SceneSam',
		  config: {
			debug: false,
			delay: 2 * 60 * 1000,
			mode: 9	,
			displayCounter: false,
			displayBar: false,
			displayStyle: "Line",
			displayLastPresence: false,
			lastPresenceTimeFormat: "LL H:mm",
			mode6_gpio: 20,
			mode6_clearGpioValue: true,
			xrandrForceRotation: "left",
			wrandrForceRotation: "normal",
			wrandrForceMode: "1920x1080",
			touchMode: 3,
			pir_gpio: 4,
			pir_mode: 0,
	  }

@gonzonia before installing did you follow all the tips mentioned by sdetweil?

Can you check new ReadMe

I haven’t had time to create a topic for the new release of MMM-Pir v2 yet, sorry

[gonzonia]

@Peter Yes. Because I was getting an error when I tried installing.

[gonzonia]

@bugsounet
I installed v 2 successfully. Everything seemed to be working with my old config (posted above). I tried updating based on the new readme, but now it won’t come back on.

I did have the wrong GPIO originally, but now it should be correct.

{
		  module: 'MMM-Pir',
		  position: 'top_left',
		  classes: 'SceneFamily SceneSam',
		  config: {
			debug: false,
			Display: {
					timeout: 2 * 60 * 1000,
					animate: true,
					style: 0,
					colorFrom: "#FF0000",
					colorTo: "#00FF00",
					mode: 2,
					counter: true,
					lastPresence: false,
					lastPresenceTimeFormat: "LL H:mm",
					availability: false,
					autoDimmer: false,
					xrandrForceRotation: "left"
				},
				Pir: {
					mode: 0,
					gpio: 20
				},
				Cron: {
					ON: [],
					OFF: []
				},
				Touch: {
					mode: 0
				},
				Governor: {
					sleeping: 4,
					working: 2
				},
				Sounds: {
					on: 0,
					off: 0
				}
			}
		},

@gonzonia Are you using X11 or Wayland?
Because now you’re using mode 2 and that’s for X11

[gonzonia]

@htilburgs yes. I was using mode 9 in the old version. When I looked it up I thought that’s what corresponded. Im on Pi OS 11 and Wayland is for 12 according to the read me

[gonzonia]

I think I had the GPIO correct originally. Went back to that and it’s working.

[htilburgs]

@gonzonia
Ok 👍 succes.

[gonzonia]

Okay, sorry to revive this. I saw there was an update available so I went to update.

I did a git pull and got this

Aborting

The thing is, I know I have made NO CHANGES to any of those files.
Should I run a pull.rebase? Would that fix it ?

[gonzonia]

I just did a reinstall for now, but I would like to know what I should do to fix this in the future

[sdetweil]

@gonzonia the question is what did you do before

Sounds like you might have downloaded the zip over the files in the working directory, or copied files from somewhere else

In general, the force way to get back to the repo level
is

git reset --hard HEAD

This will restore all the files to the last commit level.
IF you made changes for some reason , they will be wiped out, no warnings.

git status before git pull will tell you if there are any changed files,
and git diff will show you the changes

[bugsounet]

Readme says:

see there

[gonzonia]

@bugsounet and that’s what I did wrong! thank you!

[sdetweil]

@bugsounet you should make it normal, like the rest of the modules…

[gonzonia]

@sdetweil This is helpful, thank you. I guarantee I made no changes though. I think it’s just that it needs to use npm run update

[bugsounet]

@sdetweil of course not :)
