    @sdetweil said in After need take another config.js:

    mm.sh

    I discovered that the file name is defined in the check_config.js file!

    /opt/magic_mirror/tests/configs/check_config.js

    function getConfigFile() {
    // FIXME: This function should be in core. Do you want refactor me ;) ?, be good!
    rootPath = path.resolve(__dirname + “/…/…/”);
    var configFileName = path.resolve(rootPath + “/config/config.js”);
    if (process.env.MM_CONFIG_FILE) {
    configFileName = path.resolve(process.env.MM_CONFIG_FILE);
    }
    return configFileName;
    }

          I looked at it. But how can I edit this file so that another config file is read? Such as: configXYZ.js and not the standard name config.js

          Thank you

            @pi-user just copy the default config.sample.js to anyname.js

            then edit that name and do

            export config=anyname.js
            npm start

            if using pm2, then edit the installers/mm.sh file which what pm2 starts
            and add the export= line

                  if can’t get it to work… MM_CONFIG_FILE (full path to file) reads the right config file, but then
                  still get missing config file…

                  AND you MUST have a config.js in the config folder, or nothing will work…

                  sorry, i give up right now…
