Note for v ersion 2.18 a little twist
donpm install --only=prod
otherwise the developer dependencies will be installed too, and fail, causing electron not to be installed.
then
the additional steps are the samecd fonts npm install cd ..\vendor npm install cd ..
and edit package.json to change the start line as shown in prior posts
new info for change of start line in package.json, with node 16
should be like this (earlier worked with node 14,)"start": "node_modules\\.bin\\electron js\\electron.js",
-
I went through the installation guide and got this error:
$ npm start
magicmirror@2.18.0 start
DISPLAY=“${DISPLAY:=:0}” ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js
‘DISPLAY’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
