SolisCloud Solar PV

@Rags Oh my goodness, this is amazing!! Massive thanks to the developer (and you!) for the work already done, such a useful utility to have. Going to try an install it later today - wish me luck!

@Rags I ran into some snags on the install. It could be down to the dependencies - I wasn’t 100% sure where dependencies need to be installed.

I’ve put them in the MagicMirror folder (and they seemed to install fine there) but I get quite a few errors when I then try to run npm install in the Soliscloud folder.

Any advice?

The errors, if that’s helpful:

@Kash-0 npm install, right… not nvm

[Kash 0]

@sdetweil Yes, sorry! I’ll edit my original post

[Rags]

@Kash-0 Hello- 0. Well, I would suggest you to delete the existing folder (MMM-Solis Cloud if it exists) and then do a clean install in the MM Modules directory. The dependencies folder is created during NPM install in the same directory and are automatically registered ( I Guess) so there should not be any issue. Lots of my such issues with other modules were resolved by this method thanks to advice from @sdetweil .

[sdetweil]

@Rags just delete the node_modules folder and the npm install again

Thank you both. I deleted the folder node_modules from within the Soliscloud parent folder, then ran npm install again, but it produced the same result. I then deleted the Soliscloud folder and did a clean install of the module. Unfortunately, that also produced the same result. The biggest errors seem to be:

Failed to remove directories: There are warnings indicating that some directories could not be removed during cleanup, specifically related to the lzma-native dependency.

Error during epoll installation: The installation process encounters an error while trying to rebuild the epoll dependency.

Any and all help greatly appreciated :) - also, let me know if I should move the query to the Troubleshooting section.

@Kash-0 a few changes needed to the package…

try my pull request

cd to the module folder

git fetch origin pull/1/head:test_install
git checkout test_install

then npm install should work

npm install

@sdetweil said in SolisCloud Solar PV:

git checkout test_install

Nailed it! Thank you Sam, you absolute legend :)

[sdetweil]

@Kash-0 this change has been accepted into the base module. so

to reset, in the module folder do

git checkout main
git pull

no code change
