[dazza120]

@sdetweil ok done, what to do now. ive just copied the installer one and overwrite the magic mirror path one

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 which one does pm2 want to use? I am not near my computer so can’t get the list of pm2 commands.

pm2 – help

Did u edit the path in mm.sh?

[dazza120]

@sdetweil no i mearly placed it in the magicmirror folder path. its set to Cd /MagicMirror folder already and pm2 -help isnt displaying a list of pm2 commands

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 inside needs to be

cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

[dazza120]

@sdetweil changed it what now mate

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 did u try pm2 now?

[dazza120]

@sdetweil pm2 start or the dev thing?

[sdetweil]

@dazza120

Let’s get npm start dev working

[dazza120]

@sdetweil still nothing in the dev console mate, i can start the whole build over again but everytime i go to change the config it doesnt work

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 ok, start again… change the config?

So, you install a module. If it has package.json file you run npm install in the module folder

Then edit config.js and add
Module structure.

{
  module:'somename',
  config: {
  }
},

To the modules array.

If think syntax error, from the MagicMirror folder do,

npm  run config:check
