How to update.

[Snille]

@izanbard Hello, added a restart of the mirror (via pm2) if an npm install has been done and also added “–production” to the npm install command. Sometimes the module-developer have lot’s of extra stuff added in the package list just for developing. :)
I’m currently now running this script via CRON every night. :)

#!/usr/bin/env bash

updated=false

cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
echo "Checking for MagicMirror updates."
git fetch
if [ $(git rev-parse HEAD) != $(git rev-parse @{u}) ]
then
    echo "Found, updating..."
    git pull
    npm install
    updated=true
    echo "Update done."
else
    echo "No update needed."
fi
echo ""

cd modules

for directory in *; do
    if [[ -d ${directory} && ${directory} != "node_modules" && ${directory} != "default" ]]; then
        echo "Checking for ${directory} updates."
        cd ${directory}
        git fetch
        if [ $(git rev-parse HEAD) != $(git rev-parse @{u}) ]; then
            echo "Found, updating ${directory}..."
            git pull
            if [[ -e "package.json" && -f "package.json" ]]; then
                echo "package.joson changed for ${directory}, installing..."
                npm install --production 
                updated=true
                echo "Update done."
            fi
        else
            echo "No update needed."
        fi
        echo ""
        cd ..
    fi
done

if $updated; then
    echo "Restart of MM needed, restarting now."
    pm2 restart mm
fi
echo "All done. :)"

@izanbard Thank you.

 #!/usr/bin/env bash

cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
echo "######### CHECKING MAGIC MIRROR ##########"

Has anyone else deployed this script?

When I try to run it as a .py or .sh there is an error on line 6 stating invalid syntax at the end of the first echo row. Any suggestions on clearing this issue?

Delete the " and add straight ones again " (If You edited this file via an alternate editor on win/Mac then it might be a cursive "… try it, worked for me!

@KX900 backup those files somewhere if you want to keep the changes you’ve made (you shouldn’t have made any changes in those files unless you really reaally had to) and then delete them and try to update again.
