Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module

@sdetweil Sure what file/ image do you want to see?

[sdetweil]

@alyx hang on… let me test here… I am working on other fixes…

[Alyx]

@sdetweil no worries cheers buddy lemme know if you need anything

[sdetweil]

@alyx did you do the npm install in the module folder?? I need libs installed

http://mmip:mmport/modules/MMM-Config/review

I got

[Alyx]

@sdetweil Yep I did it within the MMM-Config directory, did it again there with no luck. Got some audit issues for npm but nothing big

[Alyx]

@alyx actually i had a harder look, does this seem important?

@alyx ok, add debug:true

to my module def in config.js

(stop any pm2 version running, pm2 stop all)

then start MM like this
npm start >somefile.txt

there are all kinds of interesting problems with other modules, but none on the base that I know of.

send me the somefile.txt and the defaults. js from the MMM-Config folder… it is constructed from the modules installed

same userid as here at gmail

[sdetweil]

@alyx no… all useless messages we cannot do anything about

wait… is this windows?

[sdetweil]

@alyx said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

sudo npm install

NEVER EVER use sudo on any MM command…

delete my module folder and git clone and then npm install

[Alyx]

@sdetweil So I did as you said and the npm run is stuck loading for a while and the text file is empty.

Now I’m running in server mode if that matters? I used npm run server >somefile.txt
