Changing icons of the modules Current Weather and Weather Forecast

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 no problem… I don’t expect any timeline in responses… life goes on

i provide scripts to handle the install and upgrade of the MM base
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts
(these are listed in the MM install doc, alternative approaches)

upgrade is a 2 part process, cause I don’t want to destroy you MagicMirror installation

so the first pass is a test… no changes are made… it will tell you anything about the install that might be of concern… (people change files, and do things I don’t know, so check and report… )

then you run again, with a parameter to DO the upgrade…

both are logged, so we can tell what happened.

and I also provide scripts to take and restore backups of the MM installation
which can also be versioned(with git) and saved/restored from github

s it the weather module that doesn’t have the right version?

modules can check the version of MM and fail if its not at least this minimum
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/development/core-module-file.html#available-module-instance-properties

(from another module on my system currently)

requiresVersion: "2.1.0", 

so this one should have had

requiresVersion: "2.26.0",

@sdetweil ok, I’ll try to see with the link you sent me “https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts” I hope I won’t break everything

thats why the test mode

[Manu85]

@sdetweil ok, I’ll see if I can do it…

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 and its not fatal… there is some command work to go back to a prior release in place, but possible…

[Manu85]

@sdetweil ok so I’m going to pass the command line:

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 that is install from nothing , not upgrade to newer release

please translate the page if english is not your primary language

[Manu85]

@sdetweil fortunately I haven’t taken it yet, I’m starting well…and yes I will translate, thank you

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 it’s ok, install again will not do it… checks and exits

[Manu85]

@sdetweil ok, so I pass this line in putty

upgrade-script.sh

if so do I have to be in the MM folder or at the base of the pi?

[Manu85]

@sdetweil if so do I have to be in the MM folder or at the base of the pi?

[sdetweil]

it has to be the entire line. just push the copy icon that appears when your mouse is over the line in the GitHub content

the script figures it all out

[Manu85]

@sdetweil This is the command:

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)"

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 yes, that is the 1st test, test run

[Manu85]

@sdetweil ok I do it

[Manu85]

@sdetweil I say yes or no?

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 well, you have 3 files of ours that will be changed

main.css
and weather.js and calendar.js

those changes will be lost, unless you know what you changed and why…

in general you NEVER edit any of our files…

ALL config goes in config.js
ALL css goes in custom.css

reply no… also, I am adding a new check in test run mode…

these changed files is the EXACT reason for test mode.
otherwise those changes would be lost and your mirror might be broken

[Manu85]

@sdetweil I may have moved something before meeting you, but in any case, I didn’t do anything that was important, now I know that I only touch config.js and css.custom!
to carry out a test I pass the same line?

you just DID the test pass…

if you want to see what changed in those files , for each do

git diff thefilename

for example

git diff css/main.css
