electron-rebuild problems with MagicMirror 2.22.0
-
@wishmaster270 optional is there so that IF electron is NOT installed, the install does not fail (needed on pi0w at least)
have nothing to do w cimy script ONLY installs prod, no dev. as 99.5% of users are users not mm developers. has nothing to do w module developers
-
@karsten13 and the postinstall checks for it being there, and if so skips the e-r install.
doesn’t know/care HOW it got installed before
-
you can use
--omit=optional
as param fornpm install
, I use this for myamd64
images because they are run to 99,9% withnpm run server
so electron is not needed -
@karsten13 What are your thoughts on adding
npm install @electron/rebuild --unsafe-perm; \
as part of the container image creation process to https://gitlab.com/khassel/magicmirror/-/blob/master/build/Dockerfile-debian? -
I’m trying to keep image size small … but which image are you using?
latest
orfat
?
