new update/upgrade script, ready for testing
-
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
-
@sdetweil said in new update/upgrade script, ready for testing:
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 :)

Running the upgrade script to install v2.25.0 and I get the following result. The last time I hit a roadblock I screwed things up enough that I did a fresh install. What are the proper steps to correct this?

I rebooted, and for some reason, MM didn’t restart right away, so I ran the script . It got further but then has an issue upgrading npm

@gonzonia sheesh, SO much fun… nodejs says is works and use this process…
we asked for node 20 and got something which turned into node 12…
(but then it doesn’t)I JUST tested this on the latest raspian 64bit… (june this year)
can you post output of these two commands
uname -a
lsb_release -a -
@sdetweil I found the this thread and I tired running with “force” but I’m getting the same issue when it tries to update npm.

@gonzonia lets try this
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/uninstall_node.sh)"
this should remove node
so node -v should fail
then lets manually install node20
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/node20_install.sh)"
then check node version
node -v
