<![CDATA[Update script not updating]]>@sdetweil I used the scripts you provide but I’m having some issues and want to get some clarification so I don’t break the MM I just got running yesterday.

First script is a run through but with no changes being applied
Second script is same as first script but with apply attached to end of script which will update any modules or core components that are out of date is how I understand. Is that accurate?

Also, what are ramifications of answering n to question below?
I know what the mm.sh issue is and I caused it but it doesn’t cause any functional problems.

installers/mm.sh
modules/default/calendar/calendar.js
do you want to save these files for later (Y/n)?

I ran the second apply script but it doesn’t seem to be doing anything. I am getting a notification in top banner for update to MMM-Jast but it is not being found by the scripts.
Shouldn’t calendar.js have been repaired? Shouldn’t it have picked up the MMM-Jast out of date?

on intel I get one version
on arm (32bit) I get a diffferent version
on arm (64bit) I get a different version
on aarch64 i get a different version

especially if there is a binary… and who knows what is buried under there

But if you just run npm install npm will update the lock file. So the effect is like not shipping a lock file at all.

Instead, you should use npm ci if there is a lock file https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/commands/npm-ci. This makes sure that you have exactly the same dependencies no matter if there is a newer version available.

this is only used by testing systems to make sure the environment is exact

then git pull, npm install will update that file again

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/module_folder
git pull

and if the module has a package.json, then

npm install

also in the module folder

On Github the dates are older but there is this at very top, How do I address that?

if u are on 2.19, and current is 2.19, then nothing to do. you can ‘force’ it do do the apply, by using force as the parm instead of apply. this was added for the case where someone started a manual upgrade, but got stuck…

but again, the script does not upgrade modules.

on calendar, in either case the calendar.js of the base should have been restored, and then the update applied.

if u still think there is an issue, email me the installers/upgrade.log

same userid at gmail
