magic mirror 2 config.js file

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil hm, i’ve done that but the compliments displayed are still the default one, even after editing the code.

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu can u do a pm2 status ?

even after editing the code.

what does that mean? config/config.js or modules/default/compliments/compliments.js?

[sdetweil]

is MM running ON the mac?

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil editing the code as in editing the config.js file.
that’s what happens when i do pm2 restart 0 and pm2 status

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu ok, no pm2 setup for this machine

so you would do the other approach

cd ~/MagicMIrror
npm start

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil i think so? it’ll open in electron

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu how did you do the install? manually or one of the scripts?

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu pm2 starts the same scripts as manually (~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh)

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil i believe manually, using the instructions here: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/810/total-beginner-mm2-with-macmini/3

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu hm… shouldn’t matter… but won’t take long… try my new updated installer (part of next
release)

see the instruction here

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10171/anyone-want-to-try-updated-installer

rename the current MagicMirror folder out of the way

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil this is what happens when i try to use your code

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu ok, I think i fixed the greadlink problem…

but you MUST rename the MagicMirror folder 1st… this is INSTALL, assumes first time…

later there will be a new update script (to move to next version)

just fyi, I added the compliment config to my MM on Mac catalina and it works as expected

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil do i rename the folder to anything i want?

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu yes, as long as it is not MagicMirror

MagicMirror.save, .old, .previous, junk… whatever

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil i tried using the bash -c “$(curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/rlh710ng0zwv3vp/raspberry.sh?dl=0)” command again, but it still doesn’t work. it shows the same feedback as before. i’ve also renamed the magic mirror folder

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu please post the screen shot like before
should look like this after the big magicmirror logo

+ echo -e '\e[0m'
\e[0m

this is a mac

@sdetweil

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu fun

ls "$HOME/MagicMirror"

[elaineezhu]

@sdetweil this is what shows up

[sdetweil]

@elaineezhu but you were supposed to rename it…
