I was typing while you answered.
Will have a look at it and try it out.

The module is running now, but I get this error:

0|mm  | Downloading weather map with signal: FETCH_MAP From URL: www.yr.no/place/Germany/Bavaria/Nuremberg/meteogram.png
0|mm  | Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart/cache/map-1567097174409.png'

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart $ ll /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart/cache

Then I read somewhere there is a clone of this module that is more recent, so I tried that:

https://github.com/szech/mmm-weatherchart

Same result: module runs but no file in the cache dir.
When opening the URL in the browser, it does show the picture that I do not see on my screen.

Oh boy/girl, thought it was a simple syntax thingy in config.js …

the module doesn’t work, but doesn’t kill MagicMirror anymore…

Correct.

I have a few questions.

In the original module there is no package.json file, where in the cloned one there is.
So, when using the original module, you should NOT use npm install, right ?
First of all it will no do anything useful, but it WILL delete your /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/node_modules/node_helperdirectory and its index.js file.
When using the cloned module, you should run npm installin order to install the dependencies mentioned in it, right ?
No harm is done to the node_helper dir.

Or is it all BS I am telling here (and made the wrong observations) ??

[sdetweil]

@evroom i cloned and got no package.json
i cloned this
https://github.com/paphko/mmm-weatherchart

[sdetweil]

@evroom yes, to all your observations…

[evroom]

When I use
$ git clone https://github.com/szech/mmm-weatherchart.git
then it works.
The README.md from szech point to papkto.
When corrected and doing npm install in the mmm-weatherchart directory, it works

[sdetweil]

@evroom yes, that module has it…

@sdetweil Thanks! This worked for me as it doesn’t kill it anymore. Hope for a quick fix. Can I follow the process somewhere?
