Upgrade

sdetweil

@mumblebaj if you have nvm or n installed (I detect nvm, install n )

do this

sudo n

it might give you a list, then pick the right one 22.21.1

if not there, then

sudo n 22.21.1

to install it

mumblebaj

@sdetweil Just ran it quickly and it seems like it installed 22.22.2

mumble@pi:~ $ sudo n

@sdetweil Just and FYI, I just tried a fresh install and got the same issue with node.

Then I tried using the script and it installed node v22.22.2 and looks like it is working.

yes, you didn’t use the install script you did it manually

mumblebaj

@sdetweil I see some major changes coming down the line for npm v12.

https://github.blog/changelog/2026-07-08-npm-install-time-security-and-gat-bypass2fa-deprecation/

sdetweil

@mumblebaj yeh, I was working on a mobile app last weekend
It had npm 11 installed ( windows) and had all the acceptscript problems

mumblebaj

@sdetweil Yeah, warnings come from 11.16.0+

sdetweil

@mumblebaj on windows these were NOT warnings… I actually had to run different tasks to get the scripts allowed/approved… I hadn’t expected that in npm 11…

same problem as always, some scammers leveraged the automation tools to do damage and now we all have to pay for it…

MyMirror

Moin (as we say here in Hamburg),
I’ve just reinstalled my MM using Sam’s “Install MagicMirror²” script. The script displayed and verified Node version 22.22.1.
I then ran Sam’s upgrade script, which expected Node version 22.22.2 and installed it.
If that’s how it’s meant to be – everything’s fine.

moving css contents to config

MyMirror

There might also be a minor error in Sam’s restore script here.
The “MMM-MyWastePickup” directory was the only one that triggered the “folder already exists” error following a fresh installation.

restoring MMM-MyWastePickup
module MMM-MyWastePickup contains package.json, doing npm install
there were files saved for this module , restoring
