Migrating whole MMM config to Raspberry!

radokristof

Dear Community!

I have (almost) completed my perfect MMM config. Now just on a virtual machine, to test out how it works, etc…
I’m going to make a physical mirror sooner or later. I’m just curious, if somehow I could migrate the whole config to a new platform?

Just copy the MagicMirror folder? I have modules which had to be installed seperately after pulling the repo. I’m not so familiar with Node.js, what it does?
So how can I do it? First I configure the Raspberry, install Node.js, etc… and then?

Thanks!

@radokristof the processor architecture of the pi is different than the virtual machine. So a new install is required

You can copy the config.js, but may have to install some of the modules again.

If they said npm install as part of the module install, then do those again.

You can copy over the config.js file. That should work and it will remind you of what modules you need to install.
