How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero)

Mar

@SebTota Thanks somuch Seb everything works amazing!! I owe you a beer!

@Mar Not quite old enough to take you up on that offer yet. :) Really glad to hear that its working. Like I said if anyone needs the image of just the MagicMirror, MagicMirror with Alexa, and hopefully soon MagicMirror with Jasper AI just let me know and I can send you a link to my download.

@SebTota Great job with all these Seb! Suppose I’ll drink your beer for you right now ;) I’d love to give the AI one a chance once everything is up and running.

sorry for asking something that I can google, but I’m on lunch and trying to be quick. after I have everything up and running can I:

dd if=/dev/sdf of=/functioning_mm_image.iso

that way I only have to fiddle with a few config options for the rest of the mirrors that I’m making?

@Wieber Thanks a lot for this tutorial! Now I have my Raspberry Pi 1 up and running with Magic mirror. … with some inspiration from https://maxkorlaar.com/post/?i=43&lang=en
I also added the functionality to have the monitor to shut down when no one is using the mirror i.e. during night and when no one is at home! :)

Do you still have the image you can share? I’m struggling to follow the guide here…

@SebTota

I tried to follow your guide (which is really well explained) but for some reason I´m having a few errors at the last step…Could you share your “Magic Mirror” only image with me please?

Hi there,
I had the same problem and the I have realized that node serveronly was not launched.
The problem is that the command :
cd ~/MagicMirror was not working, so I have changed it for
cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
and that’s it.
Hope this can help

OK, so i am trying this again on a Pi Zero W

I got stuck on Step 4
so I ran:

sudo apt-get remove nodered
sudo apt-get remove nodejs nodejs-legacy
sudo apt-get remove npm   # if you installed npm

wget http://node-arm.herokuapp.com/node_archive_armhf.deb
sudo dpkg -i node_archive_armhf.deb
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential python-dev npm

then again on Step 5 i got a ton of these:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ sudo npm install
npm WARN engine feedme@1.0.0: wanted: {"node":">=0.12"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"})
npm WARN engine grunt-eslint@19.0.0: wanted: {"node":">=4"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"})
npm WARN engine request@2.81.0: wanted: {"node":">= 4"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"})
npm WARN engine eslint@3.17.1: wanted: {"node":">=4"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"})

Are the updated steps or an Image that can be downloaded?
