upgrading to latest MM version

[JMac]

@sdetweil I’ve hit this at the 3 command,
MagicMirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ git switch _fix_clipping
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
package-lock.json
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.
Aborting

[sdetweil]

@JMac rm package-lock.json

[JMac]

@sdetweil do I run that in just the MagicMirror directory or the Calendar EXT3 module directory?

Below was your guidance from another of my topics with issues with this module, will it work?

(#)put package-lock.json back to last git clone state
git reset package-lock.json
(#) update the module
git pull
(#) rerun npm install with new code
npm install

had to put the # in () to stop the font going enormous

[sdetweil]

@JMac in the folder you are in!

[JMac]

@sdetweil
MagicMirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ rm package-lock.json
rm: cannot remove ‘package-lock.json’: No such file or directory

guessing I’m not doing this right

[sdetweil]

@JMac but your prior message said

so it HAS to be there
ls and see if you see it
once you have it so it is NOT there
then do the switch again

[JMac]

@sdetweil
getting this now,
MagicMirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ git switch _fix_clipping
Already on ‘_fix_clipping’

so assuming I can now restart mm?

[sdetweil]

@JMac correct, thats what the instructions say

[JMac]

@sdetweil restarted the MM with PM2, still no info being displayed in the CalendarEXT3 module.

edit to add, after letting the mirror settle down, it’s now pulling the data

[sdetweil]

@JMac Ext3 tries NOT to to flash on every update so the screen doesn’t flicker

he has parameters you can change to adjust the timing

the base cal module does take a little longer to process large calendars
