Well. After manually installing version 1.7.6 of electron and globally installing the coffee and lint nodes that the initial install complained about. I ran the manual install and everything seems to be working. I now have to add back my modules and see where we are.
Thanks.
thanks. I’ll give that a shot. Or maybe I’ll see about installing a Jessie image. I just hate using old software due to potential security issues and breaking other, newer apps.
OK. I had Jessie running on a Pi3 from China.
Revision : a22082
Everything was running fine until I put it away for a couple months and then Jessie did an update and I got the blank screen error. I tried what I could, including rolling back electron etc. but I couldn’t get rid of it.
So, I saved my config files and kissed a few other node.js goodies I was using goodbye knowing I’d rebuild them better than before. So I installed a fresh image of Stretch and reinstalled MagicMirror. Still no joy so I tried pretty much anything I could think of or find on the net to help but still… blank screen.
so. I tried again. this time things got actually weird. I ran the install script and it seemed to work but I didn’t have a MagicMirror directory. So I ran the script again and got an error that said I already had an install and to either rename the directory or do a git pull inside the directory.
I’m sort of at an impasse. I can’t find anything to delete to make the script run again and I don’t REALLY want to do a fresh install of stretch.
Any suggestions?
@xbmcnut said in Anyone tried MMM-mqtt?:
I have MQTT working now and pulling in data (Temperature) from a remote MQTT broker. Don’t think MMM-mqtt is going to handle your alert natively. You’d need something like Home Assistant to manage the automation?
I have mosquito running I just want to send an alert to the alert module when I receive a notification that the mail was delivered on the topic: /sensors/mailbox
I know this is an old topic but hopefully someone has started using this module and can help out. I am looking for a way to have mqtt fire off an alert box when it receives a specific message on a particular topic. I haven’t really worked with alerts either.
@RV said in How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero):
@dantodd you mean every time i start my rasp on i need to type npm start?
Automating the process is fairly simple but let’s get you up and running first. You should also check your permissions in the config.js file. Make sure that your whitelist is properly configured.
have you tried just using “npm start” in ssh? That works for me.
Sorry for the noise.
I found this was already a known issue as of the April 2017 when I finally looked at the Issues section of the GitHub repository.
Hello all,
I am trying to create chore checklists for 2 kids using Wunderlist.
I have tried using the config line:
lists:["Nathan Morning List", "Sarah Morning List"]
This just concatonates the two lists so they can’t identify who is supposed to do which.
I’ve also tried just cloning the module section, using the same configuration and just changing the "lists:[… " and “header…” lines for each section. This results in the second one being loaded properly but the first list displaying the header but no checklist items.
I’ve also created a second app in Wunderlist and used separate clientID’s etc. for each section and I get the same result. The last module instance loads properly but the first is empty.
{
module: "MMM-Wunderlist",
position: "top_right", // This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
header: "Nathan Morning", // This is optional
config: {
clientID: "*******1",
accessToken: "************1",
lists:["Nathan Morning List"]
}
},
{
module: "MMM-Wunderlist",
position: "top_right", // This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
header: "Sarah Morning", // This is optional
config: {
clientID: "*******2",
accessToken: "***************2",
lists:["Sarah Morning List"]
}
},
