Difficulty getting MMM-Transitfeed working

[UncleRoger]

Could it be hardware related? I’m not sure I have another Pi4 I can test with but I’ve got a Pi Zero 2 I could try. Would that be of any use?

[sdetweil]

@UncleRoger its not hardware, but another try wouldn’t hurt

There is no joy in mudville.

Here’s what I did with a fresh install of PiOS (Raspberry Pi 4 2gb):

pi@MagicMirrorDev:~/MagicMirror $ history
    1  {   sudo apt update;   sudo apt full-upgrade; }
    2  bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
    3  sudo nmtui
    4  sudo shutdown -r now
    5  sudo nmtui
    6  sudu shutdown -r now
    7  sudo shutdown -r now
    8  {   cd ~/MagicMirror/modules;   git clone https://github.com/bnitkin/MMM-transitfeed.git; }
    9  cd ..
   10  {   cd ~/MagicMirror                     # Enter magicmirror project directory
           npm uninstall gtfs-realtime-bindings # Now part of gtfs
           npm install gtfs --save-dev          # Force update to latest version
       }
   11  {   cd ~/MagicMirror                     # Enter magicmirror project directory
           npm uninstall gtfs-realtime-bindings # Now part of gtfs
           npm install gtfs --save-dev          # Force update to latest version
       }
   12  {   sudo npm install -g n;   sudo n lts;   sudo n latest;   sudo n prune; }
   13  {   cd ~/MagicMirror                     # Enter magicmirror project directory
           npm uninstall gtfs-realtime-bindings # Now part of gtfs
           npm install gtfs --save-dev          # Force update to latest version
       }
   14  cd $HOME/MagicMirror;
   15  DISPLAY=:0 npm start
   16  npm run config:check
   17  DISPLAY=:0 npm start
   18  npm run config:check
   19  DISPLAY=:0 npm start
   20  npm run config:check
   21  DISPLAY=:0 npm start
   22  {   cd ~/MagicMirror;   rm -r node_modules/better-sqlite3/;   npm install better-sqlite3 --build-from-source --runtime=electron --target=26.4.3 --dist-url=https://electronjs.org/headers --force; }
   23  {   cd ~/MagicMirror;   npm install @electron/rebuild; }
   24  {   cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed;   ../../node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild;   cd ~/MagicMirror; }
   25  DISPLAY=:0 npm start
   26  history
pi@MagicMirrorDev:~/MagicMirror $

The nmtui stuff is to set the IP address (which I did wrong a couple of times) and then I mucked up the config.js putting in the transitfeed module stuff.

Here’s the log from trying to run it at the end (it’s basically the same):

I’m thinking I might give it another go from scratch without worrying about the IP address and catching all the output from each command.

@sdetweil

Could you check that I’m doing things correctly? These are the commands I’m using to get from a fresh OS to MM with transitfeed:

# Update system

{
  sudo apt update
  sudo apt full-upgrade
}

# Install MagicMirror

bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"

# NOTICE ON INSTALL: npm install -g npm@10.8.1

# update Node/NPM

{
  sudo npm install -g n
  sudo n lts
  sudo n latest
  sudo n prune
}

# Install transitfeed

{
  cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
  git clone https://github.com/bnitkin/MMM-transitfeed.git
}

# Install gtfs

{
  cd ~/MagicMirror                     # Enter magicmirror project directory
  npm uninstall gtfs-realtime-bindings # Now part of gtfs
  npm install gtfs --save-dev          # Force update to latest version
}

# Update better-sqlite3

{
  cd ~/MagicMirror
  rm -r node_modules/better-sqlite3/
  npm install better-sqlite3 --build-from-source --runtime=electron --target=26.4.3 --dist-url=https://electronjs.org/headers --force
}

# Rebuild Electron?

{
  cd ~/MagicMirror
  npm install @electron/rebuild
  cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed
  ../../node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
  cd ~/MagicMirror
}

Thanks so much for your help!

[sdetweil]

@UncleRoger ok, simpler

flash sd card with
use my script to install MM (do nothing before, it does the update and adds whats needed for MM)
npm start to prove MagicMirror is working
clone the module

cd to the module folder and do the npm install and npm install gtfs (in module folder NOT MM folder!!)
npm install gtfs --save-dev

now, need electron rebuild
cd …/… # magicmirror folder
npm install @electron/rebuild
cd - # go back to module folder
…/…/node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
wait, should show sqlite
rebuild complete
cd - # back to MM folder

add the config entry for the module
npm start

should work

[UncleRoger]

@sdetweil

When you say “module folder”, you mean (in this case) ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed not ~/MagicMirror/modules/ right? I’m pretty sure, but better safe than sorry.

Thanks!

[sdetweil]

@UncleRoger correct the module’s folder

[UncleRoger]

@sdetweil

Still no luck. 8^(

I was getting a bunch of errors during the MM install which some googling suggested might be due to insufficient power (which is odd because I was using a big power supply) so I switched to an RPi power supply and still got the same errors. So maybe they’re somehow related? The errors are:

During MM Install:

(node:27144) MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 close listeners added to [TLSSocket]. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit

During the Electron stuff:

(node:42678) MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 close listeners added to [TLSSocket]. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit

[sdetweil]

@UncleRoger it’s an npm bug, nothing fatal

did you see the rebuild messages?

[UncleRoger]

@sdetweil
It said “Rebuild Complete” but nothing about sqlite3.
