@Anthony he is not available currently. yes there is that risk. but you could fork the module repo, add that code to the module .js file , and submit a pull request back to the module author to get that code included.

[Anthony]

@sdetweil Thank you for your rapid reply. This a very good tool for me where I am not familiar with coding. I will do it. Thank you again.

[DezHak]

Super cool, def gonna check this out asap! Thanks for sharing.

I need to update this module. Is there a preferred way to do so?

[sdetweil]

@BD0G said in MMM-Lunartic:

update this module.

updating ANY/EVERY module is the same

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/module_name
git pull

if there is a package.json after git pull, do
npm install

[BD0G]

@sdetweil OK. Perfect. Been out of the game for a while so I might have known that but forgotten.

I ran into a commit changes or stash message.

pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Lunartic $ git pull
Updating c977e14…00655ab
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:

Aborting

Just sudo git pull ? Then since it mentions the package.json do an npm install?

[sdetweil]

@BD0G someone has edited the source file…

NEVER do this, as your changes WILL be lost
ALL configuration is done in config.js

git diff

to detemine WHAT changes were made…

then to restore the file (and lose the changes)

git checkout MMM-Lunartic.js

same with package.json

@BD0G no idea how it could get that way

the author is away right now…

so, try this

git stash
to save the two files

then back to the original instructions

[BD0G]

@sdetweil Got it.
I did git stash and it indicated I needed to set my global identity. Did that. Then git stash succeeded. Then did a git pull and it indicated I needed to remove or move package.json. I moved it . Then did git pull which worked.

Then git checkout MMM-Lunartic.js
and git checkout package.json

Stopped and restarted PM2 and it displays properly and the notification bar above no longer includes that as a module that needs to be upgraded

[sdetweil]

@BD0G said in MMM-Lunartic:

Then git checkout MMM-Lunartic.js
and git checkout package.json

only needed to do those BEFORE the git pull

we did git stash (to save them off to the side (in the stash) ), which also restored the original files

[ZeroCool]

Very enjoyable module, thank you.

[Egnos]

Hello people!
Since yesterday the module has stopped working, I no longer see the image of the moon and the various descriptions.
only the header remained and below the writing: “When the Moon hits your eye . . .”.

I know @Mykle1 is currently unavailable, can anyone help me fix this?

Thanks.

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@Egnos Hy I have the same problem

[trividar]

@Egnos hey… unfortunately my module also stopped working😭

[sdetweil]

looking at it

that mechanism he uses to get the data using herokuapp.com
is returning error 503, not available.

this could be a site failure, or a function renewal , or…

because its under his userid, I cannot do any additional work to discover the issue

Does the herokuapp.com site provide lunar data?

[sdetweil]

@Egnos I think it is a proxy to the real url

[Egnos]

@sdetweil so I guess for now we have to say goodbye to the module!
Too bad because it was well made and useful!

Does anyone know of a similar module?

thanks
