Is adding Home Assistant the right way to go?

@British_Kiwi can you look at the output of npm start to see if an error is reported

@sdetweil not sure if I am doing this right. I thought I had made notes about how to check logs etc, but after some googling I have this (which I don’t think you were after):

admin@raspberrypihome:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check

> magicmirror@2.33.0 config:check
> node js/check_config.js

[2025-10-10 07:21:14.145] [INFO]  Checking config file /home/admin/MagicMirror/config/config.js ...

Not too sure which module this is referring too.

Here are the pm2 logs. I’ve removed yesterdays stuff. All I have done this morning is pm2 restart 0 --updated-env (as it keeps saying something about environment variables which I haven’t seen prior to a few days ago.

It does it look like there is an issue with a module, but I can’t work out which module. Any ideas on how to work it out?

At the moment I have commented out calendarext3, home assistant display, but I do have iframe showing on one of the pages.

@British_Kiwi if you start a private chat with me, you can paste your config and I will look at it. I agree on the ‘this’ module is unclear!..

@British_Kiwi said in Is adding Home Assistant the right way to go?:

This module configuration contains errors:
undefinedmust be object

accidental extra comma between modules (commented out module, but the trailing comma was on a sep line)

    { 
     module:"foo",
    }.
     .    <--- that guy
    {
      module:"bar",
    }

this is a bug,
opened issue
https://github.com/MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror/issues/3910

as a separate way to avoid this, you can add

   disable:true,

after the module: line
to disable a module without having to comment it out

disabled: false,

makes it active again
