fixuppm2.sh

I haven’t installed pm2, I’m updating files through the file manager and using visual code editor. I couldn’t see console logging of node helper through the browser based developer tools but could see it through MM output in its terminal window. So thank you for showing me how to enable logging, that made a big difference.

I’ve got the module working again - seems like since yesterday, its decided not to like using https but works find with unsecure http. Through a browser that http link works fine through http or https so was difficult to figure out. Not sure if something changed with the website or with MM http. Most likely the website.

Anyway, appreciate the help!

so open a terminal window and do

pm2 status
pm2 stop x

where x is the name (MagicMirror if you used my install script})
or the number in the row of output

u don’t have to reinstall

pm2 info x

will tell you how the process is started mm.sh
which is what u would modify

using pm2, u can also see the logs by using the command,
pm2 logs --lines=???
where ??? is a number, 15 by default

Getting error EADDRINUSE and MM is blank, though I was trying to debug a module that stopped working yesterday 1st October.

At this point, I will delete and reinstall MM and wait for the module developer to update or move to an alternative. I traced the error back to http data request made by node helper js but haven’t been able to find a way to see the console.log or log.info for it. The http link produces json data correctly.

Edit

Okay this error was to do with the module, I was curious so I deleted the folder for the module and its working again. I can see info logging in terminal.

How can I see info logging for node helper js?

export ELECTRON_ENABLE_LOGGING=1

or do that before u manually type npm start

or use the MMM-Logging module (not mine)

Anyhow, to make Electron print to terminal, add this to the environment variables:

ELECTRON_ENABLE_LOGGING=1

Hope it helps others!

body {
  cursor: pointer;
 }

then you will see where you “are” when moving the mouse. :)
But you should not need anything else.

.region.fullscreen {
z-index: -1;
}

as css and now it is working.

Module.register("MMM-Slider",{

	// Default module config.
	defaults: {
		//text: "Hello World!"

	},

	// Override dom generator.
	getDom: function() {
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		
		wrapper.appendChild(this.createButton());
		return wrapper;
	},
	
	createButton: function() {
		var button = document.createElement("span");
		button.innerHTML ="Click me";
		button.id = this.identifier + "_button";
		
		button.addEventListener("click", function () {
			console.log("The button was clicked");
		});

		return button;
	}
	
});

npm start dev

Thank you very much, both of you. Now I can see the logs.

Ah, @izanbard was faster :-)

console.log(“Debug Message”);

Thanks for your reply. The “Log” in the title was a mistake.
the console.log(); doesnth work either.

Module.register("MMM-Slider",{

	// Default module config.
	defaults: {
		//text: "Hello World!"

	},

	// Override dom generator.
	getDom: function() {
		console.log("Test");
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		
		wrapper.appendChild(createButton());
		return wrapper;
	},
	
	start: function() {
		console.log("Debug Message");

	},
	
	createButton: function() {
		//Create the button
		var button = document.createElement("button");
		button.innerHTML ="Click me";

		button.addEventListener("click", function() {
  			console.log("Visiting show URL");
		});

		return button;
	}
	
});

The above code was my simple attempt to create a button. The button is created, but nothing happens when i click it, and nothing is shown when MagicMirror is started.

Shouldn’t the logs be visible in the command line?
