I recently updated my MagicMirror to the most recent version using

git pull && npm install

after a long 10 minutes due to 1 year worth of never updating. I did a

sudo reboot

and was welcomed to a black screen. So i dug through the logs

^X^C

I went ahead and did what it suggested with the npm rebuild and just lowered the node error to 48 instead of 50.

I’m confused as to what this means and how to fix this, since before the update it was working.

(MMM-Buttons is used to swap between modules,
1- Blank screen only background
2-Calendar (custom sized)
3-Weather (custom sized)
4-Wunderlist (custom sized))

Issue comes from the buttons requiring an insane amount of presses to trigger, sometimes never triggering, and on rare occasions 2 of the 4 will work perfectly.

The goal was to have an easy way to have buttons, in this case 4, and each have their certain modules.
Using code from http://razzpisampler.oreilly.com/ch07.html

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)

GPIO.setup(18, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP)

while True:
    input_state = GPIO.input(18)
    if input_state == False:
        print('Button Pressed')
        time.sleep(0.2)

I tested each one button with their own GPIO and each worked every time, so with this knowledge i know the buttons and the wiring is right.

The code for the config is:

 modules: [
                {
                module: 'MMM-ModuleToggle',
                config: {
                hide: ["clock"]
                    }
                },
                {
                  module: 'MMM-Buttons',
                    config: {
                        buttons: [
                            {
                                pin: 23,
                                name: "Button_One",
                                shortPress: {
                                    notification: "MODULE_TOGGLE",
                                    payload: {hide: [], show: ["calendar", "clock"], toggle:[]}
                                },
                                longPress: undefined
                            },
                            {
                                pin: 13,
                                name: "Button_Two",
                                shortPress: {
                                    notification: "MODULE_TOGGLE",
                                    payload:  {hide: ["calendar", "clock"], show: [], toggle:[]}
                                },
                                longPress:  undefined
                            }
                        ]
                    }

As stated they work, but at very random time.

Im wondering if im suppose to like preload the knowledge to use GPIO ahead of the booting of the actual Magic Mirror program, or something like, or am i missing a step.

Thank you in advance.

After re enabling all the modules it seems

“MMM-ethereum”

causes it not to show up.
The way i found out is commenting out each module one by one

Just for future

Alright it’s up and running.
Thank you Sean
the steep by steep fix you have given was excellent :)

@Sean said in MMM-CalendarExt cant get the calendar to show:

r

alright ran the dev mode in the proper directory
the screen that showed up looks like the Chrome’s “F12” option

There were no errors or issues highlighed or showing the X on them, however the calendar somewhat showed up in a weird way after i commented out everything but the calendar.

It showed up in the bottom left with only "Tuesday /Wensday/ Thurday/ Friday " and a single calendar line.

Im still running with the Default script

{
  module: 'MMM-CalendarExt',
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    calendars: [
      {
        url: "http://mlb.am/tix/mariners_schedule_full"
      }
    ]
  }
},

SSSoo some progress

After letting the SSH run for a few minutes an error did show up

My hope is to create a plain Calendar for the entire month on a 23in monitor and has 3 different calendar sources. The calendar would sit in the top left underneath the current date and time, and this calendar would take up majority of the screen but leave room for some weather modules on the top right. That’s all this thing is going to be used for.

My issue is that I cant seem to get this calendar to show.

My code from going section by section:

{
	module: 'MMM-CalendarExt',
	position: "top_left", //anywhere. It is not related to real position of view
	config: { // Read below
	  system: {
		  show: ['daily'],
		  locale: '', //when omitted, default value would be your system default locale by moment.js
		  showEmptyView: 1,
		  fullDayEventLocalize: 1,
		  redrawInterval: 30*60*1000, //minimum 60000
		  useProfileConfig: 0,
		  startProfile: ''
		},
		defaultView: {
		  position: 'bottom_bar',
		  positionOrder: -1,
		  overflowRolling: 0,
		  overflowHeight: 0,
		  overflowDuration: 2,
		  timeFormat: 'HH:mm',
		  dateFormat: "MMM Do",
		  fullDayEventDateFormat: "MMM Do",
		  ellipsis: 0,
		  limit:0,
		  oneLineEvent:0,
		  replaceTitle:[],
		  classPattern:[],
		  classPatternWhere:["title"],
		  symbolPattern:[],
		  symbolPatternWhere:["title"]
		},
		views: {
			month: {
				showWeeks: 1,
				weeksTitle: 'weeks',
				weeksFormat: 'wo',
				weekdayFormat: 'dd',
				titleFormat : 'D',
				overTitleFormat : 'MMM D',
				monthTitleFormat: "MMMM",
			},
		},
         defaultCalendar: {
		  profiles: [],
		  views: [],
		  symbol: "",
		  styleName: "",
		  replaceTitle:[],
		  classPattern: [],
		  classPatternWhere: ["title"],
		  symbolPattern: [],
		  symbolPatternWhere: ["title"],
		  maxEntries:50,
		  maxDays:180,
		  interval: 1800000,
		},

	  calendars: [
		  {
			name: "Stars",
			url: "webcal://cantonbecker.com/astronomy-calendar/astrocal.ics",
		  },
		  {
			name: "US Holiday",
			url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics",
			maxEntries: 50,
			maxDays:365,
			interval: 24*60*60*1000,
		  }
		],
	},
}

this code resulted in a giant nothing showing.

I then tried what Im guessing is the basic defualt

{
  module: 'MMM-CalendarExt',
