I just started setting up my MagicMirror and am a total newbie. I am not a coder / programmer – I’ve basically just mimicked the examples from the various modules in GitHub to do my configuration. So this is a pretty basic question, but one that other newbies may be wondering as well.
When entering a value for a config line, when do you need quotes?
At first, I just assumed you quoted everything. But I was changing something in my config file and noticed some unquoted values. After a little more investigation, I realized that there are a few values that only work if they are not quoted (e.g. plain numbers and boolean T/F).
Can someone confirm the specifics of this for us newbies?
In case I’m not being clear, it seems like you would do
port: 8080
without quotes but
units: "metric"
with quotes.
And a bonus question, should it be double quotes, single quotes, or can you use either one?
