node clientonly for Windows

[sdetweil]

@mri_ice

from the doc
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/getting-started/installation.html#client-only

because the system is running wayland
you need to set the variable if not set

"WAYLAND_DISPLAY="${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:=wayland-1}" node clientonly … rest of parms

copied from package.json

@sdetweil said in node clientonly for Windows:

“WAYLAND_DISPLAY=”${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:=wayland-1}"

Hi Sam, many thanks.

I’m confused. I thought Wayland was a *nix-thing?
I’m trying to run the client on Windows 10.

Do I need to set this up as an Environment Variable?

@mri_ice just responding to the message you got
is windows on the stick?

[sdetweil]

you can also launch a browser to the MagicMirror server

@sdetweil

Yup, the stick is windows-based.

Is there a :windows parameter similar to when you run the full npm start:windows?

[mri_ice]

@sdetweil

This is what I’ve ended up doing for now, thank you.

[sdetweil]

@mri_ice if you look at package.json you can see the npm commands we defined in the scripts section

i copied the wayland stuff from there.

looks like electron (browser) is confused about the os running
