New module installer
-
@sdetweil
I removed it with rm -rf MMM-Config
Then rebooted Pi
Then reinstalled with:
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Config
cd MMM-Config
npm install
THAT DID NOT WORK.
threw all kinds of errors in shift+ctrl+i
So I went back to the
cd MMM_Config module and ran
git pull
git checkout with_installer
npm install
rebooted the Pi
Now it works.
Why I do not know.
But it does. I am going to try it out with MMM-MPlayer.
Thanks for the great work… -
@plainbroke said in New module installer:
git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Config
yes, that will put you on the root branch main or master
you have to checkout the other branch that has the installer function in it -
@plainbroke pushed a few more updates… now open repo button in configuration screens as well as installer

@sdetweil Hi Sam,
I update the fetch interval on my CalendarExt3 module via MMM-Config as i had a power flick and events hadn’t came back quick enough for my liking. However now the whole CalendarExt3 module is not display and i am getting errors on start up saying it can’t calidate main module.js i hadn’t made any changes outside of the config module. I tried uninstalling CalendaerExt3 and reinstalling but without any luck would love some guidance. Will past the latest config module below also.mdwebb@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start > magicmirror@2.31.0-develop start > npm run start:x11 > magicmirror@2.31.0-develop start:x11 > DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js [2025-01-20 20:36:52.086] [LOG] Starting MagicMirror: v2.31.0-develop [2025-01-20 20:36:52.114] [LOG] Loading config ...

@MDWEBB hm, could not validate file…
edit: ---- you said you reinstalled, so this is not a file corruption problem
lets go to the MMM-CalendarExt3 folder
and dogit statusit should not list any files
please show the reults
-
@MDWEBB also you changed refreshInterval to 600
milliseconds down from 30 minutes!! (the module cannot redraw that fast)i think you need to change the waitFetch value up to 10000
milliseconds.i don’t think refreshInterval should ever be less that 300000
(5 minutes) -
@MDWEBB I could not recreate the error by setting one of my Ext3 instances to refreshInterval :600
-
BUT… just for the sake of testing something… MMM-Config saved the prior config.js
so if you
cd~/MagicMirror/config #rename this one out of the way mv config.js save-config.js ls config -laFt config.* #and copy the top one back to config.js #mark the filename, right click mouse cp -rightclick-paste config.jsand then restart MagicMirror
do you still get the error??
-
I added the default modules to have links to their config doc too… (in configuration)
I made significant changes to the weather form layout, using select lists and custom field sets per weather provider.
updated the schemas MMM-Config ships to add the view readme button -
@MDWEBB said in New module installer:
[ERROR] ReferenceError: HTMLElement is not defined
This error message seems to be caused by some JS validator trying to check the browser-oriented syntax on the nodeJS environment.
@MDWEBB
You’d better start from a clean configuration and then add one by one to find what was wrong.
