MMM-CountUP (COVID19 example)

@bhepler The read me for this module shows the date format as YYYY-MM-DD so I entered 2020-03-16 because I wanted it to run from 16th March 2020 which up until today is 33 days, but it only shows 2 days on the Mirror?
-
@Bromley47 try 2020-02-16
I bet he didn’t adjust the month. Date/moment code uses 0 as january
I opened issue on the module github site
https://github.com/bibaldo/MMM-CountUP/issues/3 -
@sdetweil Hi Sam - thanks for your continued interest in this - I tried the 2020-02-16 date but still showing 2 day??
-
@Bromley47 ok, so the problem is in default (showFullDate = false) he truncates the year/month/week count,
but does NOT adjust number of days… my original guess was wrong, so the date is the one u want to count from.I have submitted a pull request to fix this…
||
|| bibaldo’s repo has integrated the fix i provided, I am closing my repo
|| May 8, 2020
||when he merges my fix, you can git pull in the .original folder
rename them back and delete mine -
@sdetweil Fantastic Sam - many thanks - managed to edit with the help of my son who’s well into JavaScript (says it pays the mortgage!) and now shows the correct number of days etc. The remaining problem I have is that to restart the MM when I have done any mods. (such as this one) I have to power off the Raspberry O, which is a bit of a faff. I have tried to use the instructions on git hub by MichMich (Auto starting Magic Mirror) but when I run pm2 restart mm it says Process or Namespace mm not found.
I can only think the Magic Mirror is called by another name but how do I find that out?pi@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 restart mm
Use --update-env to update environment variables
[PM2][ERROR] Process or Namespace mm not found -
@Bromley47 pm2 status will show the names… if u used my installation script it is call MagicMirror
you can also use the number pm2 restart 0 -
@Bromley47 so you didn’t use my repo with the fix?
