<![CDATA[Black screen after update - reason layer 8!]]>Hello,
since today my MM got a black screen.
When I start with " npm start dev" I got the following error

[2021-04-02 14:27:32.741] [LOG]    Initializing new module helper ...
[2021-04-02 14:27:32.745] [LOG]    Module helper loaded: MMM-DarkSkyForecast
[2021-04-02 14:27:33.532] [ERROR]  WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: Cannot find module 'digest-fetch'
Require stack:

[2021-04-02 14:27:33.535] [LOG]    Loading module helpers ...

In the update notes I can see the following

Replaced deprecated request package with node-fetch and digest-fetch.
Refactored calendar fetcher.

“npm rebuild” in the calendar module doesn´t help.

It would be wonderful if someone could help me.

Thank you in advance.
Lars

thats why I wrote my script
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts#update-to-next-magicmirror-version-from-an-existing-magicmirror-installation

but it is manual

The worst part is that I had the same problem before and did it wrong again.

The problem is that I run a cronjob at night where the update is triggered automatically via git “pull && npm install”. And you had already mentioned with my last problem that this is stinky.

Maybe you have another tip for me on how to best set up an automated update.

Thanks a lot.
