MMM-futar - how to add modules multiple time?

[sdetweil]

@0livia git clone module new_foldername

in new_foldername

rename all.old things to the new_foldername

edit the new_foldername.js

change the register() to use the new_foldername

and use new_foldername as the module name in config.js

@sdetweil ok thank you for pinging me to my issue. To double check that I got it right - what you are saying is basicly I have to copy (i dont use git) the moudule again in a different name for example mmm-futar1 and in that folder need to rename all the the mmm-futar to mmm-futar1, and in config js need to the the same thing. Is this correct?
I’m on my way to Aalsmeer (NL) as I’m a trucker :) I 'll be back on wednesday so give it a try next week. I ll give you feedack how it goes.

@0livia yes correct. you can git clone

just add the new output foldername to the end of the command

and inside the one file have to change it too

@sdetweil Hi I have contacted the DevGuy and he said no need to clone the modules multiple times, I tried and do not work that way.

The solution what he told is not working for me either.
Here is what he said - you need to add the modules into the config.js file like this way.

{
module: “MMM-Futar”,
position: “top_left”,
header: ‘Közvágóhíd -> Ráckeve’,
config: {
stopId: ‘BKK_009628’, // Közvágóhíd
routeId: 'BKK_H6,
}
},
{
module: “MMM-Futar”,
position: “top_left”,
header: ‘Ráckeve -> Közvágóhíd’,
config: {
stopId: ‘BKK_007947’, // Ráckeve
routeId: ‘BKK_H6’,
}
},
]
};

I tried this way and it gives me a blank screen
here is my config

Anyone has any idea about this issue of mine?

Hi @0livia, I had some trouble when I tried to locate modules at the same region…so I would use first to set one occurrence to top_left and the second to top_right.

[sdetweil]

@0livia black screen is because of a missing library

see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later/1

@sdetweil I started my mirror with the config a linked earlier.
This is my error in the terminal

[09.12.2022 15:57.24.612] [LOG] Initializing new module helper …

@0livia can u show a few more lines? the stacktrace is there which will show the line causing the error

[sdetweil]

@sdetweil in your config posted above, u are missing a trailing quote mark

      stopId: 'BKK_009628', // Közvágóhíd
      routeId: 'BKK_H6,   <-----

but other than that your config works for me…

did you do npm install in the module folder?
did u add the request module as I noted before ?

@sdetweil said in MMM-futar - how to add modules multiple time?:

trailing quote mark

I did find the trailing quote mark was missing :)

when i first installed the module i did npm install in the module folder.
Should I do it again after modifying the config js?

I do not have this request module thingy i already done that, the mirror actually works fine evewn with the mmm-futar modul(just only one single item) as I want to add more 2 with the provided example just black screen
