@sdetweil I’ve found V3.3.2 and just try "git checkout 1f451ce "

@rkorell if you pull the tags, you can use the tag name

git checkout v3.3.2

@sdetweil
For some really strange reasons, neither

pi@MagicMirrorPi5:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control $ git fetch --all --tags
pi@MagicMirrorPi5:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control $ git fetch --tags

currently give any feedback…

So I’ve worked with the found git-hash:

git checkout 1f451ce

This at least worked and rolled back to V. 3.3.2.

Unfortunately some dependencies (package-lock.json ???) are not strict enough, so the rollback produces an error message:

[ERROR] Error when loading MMM-Remote-Control: require() of ES Module /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control/node_modules/uuid/dist-node/index.js from /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control/API/api.js not supported.

So I downgraded UUID:

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control
npm install uuid@9.0.1
npm ci --omit=dev

With this module is running again.

From now on I’m in a in ‘detached HEAD’ state - but this seems OK.
Thanks for your time, effort and always great help!

@rkorell I was just about to add that you needed to redo the npm install for the module after deleting the node_modules folder
else you were trying to run the new dependencies with the old code

but you fixed it…

rkorell

@sdetweil
Yes :-)

In fact I’ve used

npm ci --omit=dev

this does the deletion of the node_modules folder inherently AFAIK …

Thanks again, dear Sam!

@rkorell said in MMM-Remote-Control:

npm ci

be careful… the package.json was built and tested on a cloud based virtual machine.
pi and other hardware types MAY need a different version of a dependency, i’ve only seen it myself twice in 6 years, but

npm ci uses the exact package.json
npm install will get the appropriate for this platform, even if the version changes.

anyhow… I use npm install --omit=dev when I do the installs script or MMM-Config

@sdetweil
OK; thanks for this hint.
May npm install has avoided the resulting error which I had to solve…

Anyway: Thanks a LOT!
