installing mm
-
hi thx for that but as i have said before i have no idea how to copy and paste from pi
geo -
@geo open an ssh session from your pc to pi.
or slow way, open a browser on pi, and terminal window, and copy. paste that way
-
hi installed the scripts but cant open the mirror.
-
@geo you don’t install the scripts… u execute one line
to install you copy/paste this line
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"which will execute the install process
-
hi yes i havs done that but how do i open the mirror
-
npm start command not found
-
@geo show me the ~/install.log file
something is missing
-
hi,finally got my numb brain partially working and installed scripts,easy when you know how,thankyou.now how do i open mm cos npm start does not work.
would still like to know why the original command did not work.thx again,geocd MgicMirror
hi when i tried to find the install.log file permission was denied -
@geo I don’t understand.
to start mm after install, you navigate to the MagicMirror folder and execute npm start
cd ~/MagicMirror npm start -
@geo >would still like to know why the original command did not work.
because u copied some old instructions.
the install scripts were removed 2 releases ago, because they require constant updating, which the project felt was not in the core mission of MagicMirror.I have taken over maintenance and updates for the scripts, and this is mentioned on the project GitHub site, as alternative install methods
