[Mahieedaboss]

What do you mean by throw away

I am a real beginner

[sdetweil]

@Mahieedaboss

looks like pip is not installed…
and virtual env

if you don’t know the command line commands

how would u erase/delete/throw away a file or folder on a mac?

use the finder to locate the folder and drop it in the trashcan

[Mahieedaboss]

Pip??
Virtual env??

GOOGLE??? (jk)
but seriously, pip, virtual env, was this in the installation document??

[sdetweil]

@Mahieedaboss you reported

./setup.sh: line 3: pip: command not found
./setup.sh: line 4: virtualenv: command not found
./setup.sh: line 5: ./hhsmartmirror/bin/activate: No such file or directory

so, I searched on google for those strings… and came up with the link I posted

were they in the document, uh… no, because there has been some change in the last THREE YEARS since that repo was updated… my my how is THAT possible?!.. lol

the ONE skill EVERYONE needs in an opensource env, is the ability to search for resolutions of undocumented stuff…

it is assumed that everything will break shortly… cause there are no commitments to forward compatibility anymore…

SO

I rm -r the MagicMirror/ and AI-Smart-Mirror. I installed the installation script you said. I think it was successful because there was a new directory named Magic Mirror. The last line was this

\e[92mWe’re ready! Run \e[1m\e[97mpm2 start MagicMirror\e[0m\e[92m from the ~/MagicMirror directory to start your MagicMirror.\e[0m

I have a feeling it is telling me to do something. But what!!!
Please help.

P.S What time do you stay up till because this may take some time -_- :)

@sdetweil

So is this all a waste of time? This project?

[sdetweil]

@Mahieedaboss said in A number of them rlly...:

Run \e[1m\e[97mpm2 start MagicMirror\e[0m\e[92m from the ~/MagicMirror directory

so, you need to open a terminal window
then change to the users ~, MagicMirror folder MagicMirror, like this cd ~/MagicMirror

once there, you will need to type the command

npm start

and then hit enter

your next post… this project a waste of time? no idea… its old… don’t know what it did, don’t know if it will still work, or can be made to work…
I know I spent some time working on the aiclient with someone else a while back (many months)
I don’t remember the outcome

(that is called the black screen, usually cause of some error in a module)

before making any changes from the rest of the script?

roll the mouse up to the top left of the screen, you shoudl get a title bar, with two buttons, red and green,
press green, then the middle orange minimize button,

there should be messages in the terminal window… what are the last 10 messages>

ai , sorry, no idea…

HA!

This is the most worthwhile…
You’re already there.
Deal with it.
Embrace it.
