MMM-Remote-Control API and remote fails after V2.25.0 update

sdetweil

@rhbauman it was the same before apiKey was uncommented…

I was just trying to use a function that required a key… as well as the others.

rhbauman

Yeah, secureEndpoints made no difference for me. What’s your MM host, a Raspberry Pi? If so, are you running bullseye? And you’re running MM V2.25, right?

sdetweil

@rhbauman i installed on a pi3, pi4 and my linux desktop, all on node 18 or 20 all with the same module config (cut and paste)

buster and bullseye, all MM 2.25

and all worked.

rhbauman

Excellent. Then I’ve got some problem in my Pi environment. Thanks for the info and taking the time to try to duplicate the issue.

sdetweil

@rhbauman let us know how it works out…

rhbauman

@sdetweil
OK. This masked the root problem: pm2 logs mm --lines 100 doesn’t show the same information as npm run start. From pm2 logs:

Once I discovered that node-fetch wasn’t found it was easy enough to follow your instructions to do an npm install node-fetch, although if I ran it in the MMM-Remote-Control directory I got

pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control $ npm install node-fetch

up to date, audited 88 packages in 4s

But from the MM directory:

pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $ npm install node-fetch

added 6 packages in 17s

And which 6 packages got installed? Who knows. At any rate, Remote-Control API’s are now working again for me. Looking at the MM changelog again I see in the Updates section “Replace node-fetch with internal fetch (#2649) and remove digest-fetch.” To me that seems to be a transparent change that should break anything.
