@sdetweil sounds hard to you. far away from your computer.

@bdream if u rename the mm folder to mm. save and the reinstall does it work?

[sdetweil]

i fixed the upgrade script… if u wanted to force use it again, use “force” instead of “apply”

let me know how it goes

@sdetweil Get well soon!

A couple of quick questions…

• The “UpdateNotification” module is able to detect that there is a new version of MM available. Is this logged somewhere or easily accessible from the command line? I’m interested in writing a script that can assess the new version, possibly run a ‘test upgrade’ and then send me a IFTTT or pushover notification that a new version is available and an upgrade test succeeded (or failed).

• Is the new upgrade script bundled with MM yet? I thought that was the intent, but did not see it up through 2.10.x

@ember1205 the scripts were removed from the mm base. I maintain them on my github page https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

the update cycle is 90days, 1st of the month

if u look at my upgrade-script I check the versions using curl, line 173

Where’s a good place to discuss the scripts? I’m wondering how feasible and useful it might be to add to the upgrade-script.sh one.

@ember1205 you could create an issue on the repo

@sdetweil : Thank you for the great installer script ! it worked well on Raspberry Pi Zero W. I had issue with electron and dependencies but it did the job :)
