new update/upgrade script, ready for testing

[sdetweil]

@evroom no… just issue the command on the commandline

npm install electron@3.0.13

Is this a pi 0?

@surger13 ok, looks like we have to fight the manual way

do

cd ~/MagicMirror
git stash
git merge
npm install

took the manual way too because of the same probs. Now my Pi is downloading the electron v3.1.13 version with 3.01 kB/s. can I stop the installation process to update electron manually?

[sdetweil]

@ChrizZz I do not know

It looks like github has problems. I also cannot download other stuff from it with proper speed or without running into a timeout. Perhaps local or depends on your ISP region.

I started installing electron in a new terminal session and it is downloading now with 16 kB/s. Maybe a stupid decission, maybe not.

Current status: 45% downloaded in the new terminal session, 18.5% downloaded as part of the MM update.

//edit: I stopped the inital installation, downloaded the right electron file from a mirror and placed the zip file in the /home/pi/.cache/electron folder. After that I updated electron manually. It worked well and after that I started npm install of the new MM version again. Now everything is updated without waiting years to download the zip from Github.

@sdetweil Hi Sam, after weeks being off I saw availability of v2.10.0 :slightly_smiling_face:
I run your script ```
bash -c “$(curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/lxzwyzohg61sppu/upgrade-script.sh?dl=0)” apply

Do I need to stop MM first or 'only' run the script in MagicMirror folder?

[Mykle1]

@bdream

Just open a new terminal and run the script. MM should not be running, I believe.

Guys, I’m little confused.
I currently running at v2.9 and I wish to upgrade to v2.10
If I run the command:
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/upgrade-script.sh)” apply

MM won’t update to v2.10

If I try the ‘traditional’ way 'git pull && npm install’ and ignore any changes that I make I receive the error:

The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge: installers/dumpactivemodules.js

see here:
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/11912/problem-with-updating-to-2-10-0-from-2-9-0-using-update-script/2

Any suggestion on how to update to 2.10?

[sdetweil]

@panos the official script has a bug. Erase that file and use the updated version.

Sam, your link is looping or I’m wrong.

Can you please provide the link to the right script again? Sorry I’m confused and not able to update the MM.

Many thanks AGAIN Sam!

@sdetweil thanks for your great work. Unfortunately it does not work for me with the script.

When I execute the script I get the following messages:

bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)"
the log will be /home/pi/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log
No LSB modules are available.
doing test run = true
update log will be in /home/pi/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log

saving custom.css
upgrading from version 2.9.0 to 2.10.0
fetching latest revisions
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref origin
MagicMirror git fetch failed
restoring custom.css

The log file also contains the following:

not english or locale not set, set git alias
alias git='LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 git'
remote name = github-desktop-darkniki origin
upgrading from version 2.9.0 to 2.10.0
fetching latest revisions
git fetch rc=128
MagicMirror git fetch failed

Should I update manually or is there another way with the script?

Thanks

Sepp

@spitzlbergerj well, thats a new one…

i try to find the upstream git repo this installation came from, and then get the changes from there,
cause I want to be able to test the application of the changes without breaking the local system.

can u do

git remote 
and
git remote -v

thanks… it should be one word, but it looks like two on your system

[sdetweil]

@spitzlbergerj could u try this little script to see if I got it right?

curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash

it will check the status of the 3 lang settings,

LANG=
LANGUAGE=
and LC_ALL=

[spitzlbergerj]

@sdetweil thanks for your Help. Here are the results

git remote
github-desktop-darkniki
origin

git remote -v
github-desktop-darkniki https://github.com/darkniki/MagicMirror.git (fetch)
github-desktop-darkniki https://github.com/darkniki/MagicMirror.git (push)
origin  https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (push)

and for the second post:

curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash
not english or locale not set, set git alias
alias git='LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 git'
Auf Branch master
Ihr Branch ist zu 'origin/master' um 117 Commits hinterher, und kann vorgespult werden.
  (benutzen Sie "git pull", um Ihren lokalen Branch zu aktualisieren)
Unversionierte Dateien:
  (benutzen Sie "git add <Datei>...", um die Änderungen zum Commit vorzumerken)

        core
        installers/dumpactivemodules.js

nichts zum Commit vorgemerkt, aber es gibt unversionierte Dateien (benutzen Sie "git add" zum Versionieren)

I hope this helps

Regards
Sepp

[sdetweil]

@spitzlbergerj thx. Can u try the last command again

[spitzlbergerj]

Good Morning @sdetweil

Here are the results from the just newly started command:

curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash

alias git='LANG=en_US.UTF-8 git'

The result is the same as last night, right?

Hi there, I do not want to interfere, as Sam is most capable, but can you give the output of this command?

locale -a

And tell if you see English or German output for those 2 commands?

LC_ALL=C git status

LC_MESSAGES=C git status
