@gonzonia said in After update MMM-Buttons breaks, made things worse trying to fix it:

@sdetweil I used your upgrade script but I’m not sure what happened. I’m now at least back to this

yes, MMM-Buttons is busted on upgrade… use my fork

gonzonia

@sdetweil Apologies. You did say that already and it didn’t penetrate. Replaced with your fork and it looks like I’m mostly back up. CalendarExt2 doesn’t seem to be loading though. I’ll have to dig into that later.

@gonzonia had same problems and tried several methods. i’m not a linux crack and can only make what other say to try. :see-no-evil_monkey: :grinning_squinting_face:

✔ MagicMirror Rebuild Complete

That you see MagicMirror Rebuild Complete !
Your module is now installed correctly

This way will also be good for the Originl MMM-Buttons from the Year 2017 and many other modules!

if you work with this module https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Buttons you must change 2 lines and add 1 line in the file package.json after git clone:

a.) change Line 23 from
"postinstall": "node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild -e ../../node_modules/electron" to
"postinstall": "node_modules/.bin/magicmirror-rebuild -e ../../node_modules/electron"

b.) change Line 29 from
"electron-rebuild": "^1.2.1" to
"magicmirror-rebuild": "^1.0.0"

c.) add a line after line26 from
"onoff": "latest" to

"onoff": "latest",
"magicmirror-rebuild": "latest"

after that you can continue with step 3, good luck :)

@Lusbueb or, you can get my fork of MMM-Buttons which fixes the install problem

https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Buttons

Lusbueb

@sdetweil Of course I had also tried your git repo but it didn’t work for me, so I kept looking and with the alternative migicmirror-rebuild every module worked.
I’ve also seen that some modules have been adapted to magicmirror-rebuild, but it’s of no use if you don’t know exactly how to use it.
my description above was the solution that worked for me, so I published it here.
thank you again for your support. :hugging_face:

sdetweil

@Lusbueb I’d like to know what didn’t work, as I test it quite often. I don’t like providing fixes that don’t work…

Lusbueb

@sdetweil if i run your git repo it looks liike this:

pi@MM:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Buttons $

then i changed in our package.json

    "postinstall": "node_modules/.bin/magicmirror-rebuild -e ../../node_modules/electron"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "onoff": "latest",
	"magicmirror-rebuild": "latest"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "magicmirror-rebuild": "^1.0.0"
  }

and do npm install it looks like this:

pi@MM:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Buttons $ npm install

> Magic-Mirror-Module-Buttons@1.0.0 postinstall
> node_modules/.bin/magicmirror-rebuild -e ../../node_modules/electron

sh: 1: node_modules/.bin/magicmirror-rebuild: not found

pi@MM:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Buttons $

so, the package.json is allready changed, i delete the new created file package-lock.json and folder node_modules and run npm i magicmirror-rebuild it look like this:

pi@MM:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Buttons $ npm i magicmirror-rebuild
npm WARN idealTree Removing dependencies.magicmirror-rebuild in favor of devDependencies.magicmirror-rebuild

oh yes, thats true! 🙈 Please change your Installation -Instruktion in your GIT, thank you😅

no… mine is a fork of the master… you should know to substitute my URL for the one in the doc (if any)

if I were to change the link AND submit it to the author, AND they took it, then their doc would point to MY repo incorrectly…

this is how the fork process works…

SO, if you git clone my url and do the npm install, does it fail?
