Bad question

Fonfon

@Fonfon and when i start npm , my config file name is config.js or config.js.sample ?

Mykle1

Can you give me a correct config file for starting or where i can find it ?

Well, that one should work if you make the correction I noted. Otherwise, in the config folder is a file called config.js.sample. Make a copy of it and rename it to config.js. Then you’ll have to add your other modules and API keys

@Fonfon your config.js file that you just pasted the code into is inside your config folder, yes?

Fonfon

yes but i think the copie/pasted is not correct i re-try

Fonfon

yes he’s inside the folder

cowboysdude

To save yourself time and double check do this…

go to your MagicMirror/config directory

type in terminal window:

cp config.js.sample config.js

Then restart your mirror… lets make sure it’s working first :)

if (typeof module !== 'undefined') {module.exports = config;}

is it the great form ?

Mykle1

@Fonfon I think it should be ‘France/Paris’ with capitals, and a comma after ‘top_left’,

Also, I think that if you leave the default at ‘none’ it will use your system clock

{
module : ‘clock’,
position : 'top_left’,
config: {
timezone: ‘France/Paris’
}
},

is it the great form ?

timezone Specific a timezone to show clock.

Possible examples values: America/New_York, America/Santiago, Etc/GMT+10
Default value: none
