Update available 2997 commits behind

Canguingo

Hi there,

I have a Magic Mirror that I was working with last year. I tried to recover this project but the Mirror gives me a warning on the top that says:

MagicMirror update available
Your actual installation is 2997 commits behind from the Master Branch.

I tried to upgrade with git pull but nothing happened.

I have noticed that there is a new version: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/12460/v2-11-0

Do I need to re-install the software again or is there a way to updated in a different way?

(You’ll proably need to know the version of my MagicMirror, how do I find out which version do I have?)

Many thanks in advance!

Cheers, JD

Read the readme for the commands to issue

Thank you Sam. But this doesn’t solve the issue. At least if I follow the instructions from the Read.me.

It says update available. but how to update it? isn’t there a line of code to run and update it every time this shows up?

@Canguingo to update from my scripts is a 2 step process, right?

upgrade-script.sh will do the git pull and npm install, and refresh npm setup for any modules that might need it
it should handle all the work… and give you a trial run of all that…

only applying changes if u request them

give it a try this works on Mac as well, cut/paste this line into the terminal window on your device

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)"
------> no changes are made to the local repo or the working copy  < ---------

if you WANT to actually apply the changes, cut/paste this line into the terminal window on your device

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" apply

there is a log file (upgrade.log) in the MagicMirror/installers folder…
