Looking for Beta-testers!

[MichMich]

@KirAsh4 Yes, you should.

LOL!

Seriously folks, we do need people to test out the develop code. It’s one thing for us to write code and push it up and only a select few test it, particularly those who have asked for that bit of code. We need the greater population to test as well. Something may be broken for others, or we may have inadvertently broken existing code and we won’t know.

So please, test the code, let us know what works, what doesn’t, what fails. It’s the only way we can find these bugs.

This would be a separate install, right?

hello guys,

just registered and quite new on the forum…
I really appreciate your work and i have already used the code to create my first prototype (with film at the moment waiting for a nice real mirror, i will try to post some photos).
I am using a 10.1 inch screen (ultra thin) with a PI3.
I will try to help you guys as a beta tester and if you want i would like also to discuss about new ideas.

@d3r, if you checkout the code as per @MichMich’s instructions above, it will automatically download and over write the current codebase with the develop branch. It will NOT overwrite your current config.js file.

@pigreco, feel free to post your ideas in the various sections they might pertain to, modules, core system, or a general topic.

Cool, I’m in, I like breaking things LOL :D

As a noob to the MM project I’m really fascinated by it and eager to start writing my own modules (though I keep finding modules that suit my purpose).

[pigreco]

Hello guys,

i have tried to pass to development branch but i got this error

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
modules/default/clock/clock.js
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can switch branches.
Aborting

I suppose that was due to my code change on the second colour of the analog clock in the module clock.js…i had just put the red colour #FF0000…i have retested with the @ #888888 one but still the same error…

A possible bug?

Cheers
Pi

@pigreco, no this is the expected result. GIT doesn’t want to overwrite your changes. This is why you should never make ani modifications to the modules or the core files. If you want to modify the design, you can use the css/custom.css file (this file will be ignored by git).

To remove your changes so that you can update continue, please use: git stash

Hello @MichMich thanks for the suggestion…not very familiar with stash, i need to authenticate ?

Thanks
