@史新瑞 said in Automatically terminate the process after NPM Run serve:

Hello everyone, after NPM run serve you need CTRL + C or something to stop the process, but I want it to stop automatically, what should I do

Try putting a space then & that works for me on a couple of different projects I am running. Like my DHCP server Hope it helps.

@史新瑞
Here is what I use in my config.js file, for an example:

{
        module: "MMM-ImagesPhotos",
        position: "middle_center",
        config: {
                opacity: 0.9,
                animationSpeed: 500,
                updateInterval: 10000,
                backgroundColor: "black",
                maxWidth: "500px",
                maxHeight: "500px",
                fill: false
        }
},

Hope this is what you where looking for. I find and example really helps me figure out what I am doing wrong or in some cases what I am doing correct.

Hello Again,
Trying to fix some little annoyances like this one where MMM-Cocktails is using null to hold the line spacing, I guess. I left a new issue with the maker a week ago or so, I understand he is not able to communicate at this time with us. I was hoping someone has run into this before and I am just not able to do the correct word search to find the answer.
See the picture for a better explanation… Circled in RED.

@plainbroke you are getting from here, right?
https://github.com/mykle1/MMM-DumbAssCatFacts.git

line 100 is right, I had added a debug line and a blank line.

Yes to your question. I am not sure why because nothing changed overnight, 8pm to 7am next day, but all the sudden it started working. Only thing I can think happened was my internet is hit or miss during really stormy weather and it could not get a good connection to the api provider. If that is even a thing. Which is weird because the RainMap module I have running seems to always work… Oh well problem solved. Not going to worry about it anymore this week.

Thank you for all the help you provide.

@BKeyport
Where can I get your blank space module and the whatever Player you use?

@MMRIZE
Hey I am back where I can test this RTSP module you have whipped up…
Heck I would be fine if I could get RTSPStream to work with vlc since I use full screen when the camera feeds come around in the MMM-Carousel module.
email same as user @gmail.com. What you are showing would be great if I can use it at full screen above or something like that…

@plainbroke
well it is back MM is driving me crazy lately and that is a short drive for me. :grinning_face_with_sweat:

@sdetweil
Well that worked for a couple days but now it is back to “meow…”.
I removed and reinstalled and went in and changed that again.
Mine is on line 100 though.

So far 35 using Carousel to run through them 45 seconds a screen takes about a half hour to run through and get back to the beginning. Add until you can’t find room on the screen anymore.

@plainbroke
reloading 36 modules and getting them all to work as expected ,takes some time. Almost there today. MMM-RSTPStream is being difficult not wanting to play nice with vlc for some reason this round… Guess 5 different instances is too many. eventhough I have them spread out in the list of modules that carousel runs for me…

@sdetweil
I went all out and started fresh, I have the backups of all files that are not “default”. My modified files are backed up to 3 places after having an issue when my OpenMediaVault somehow became corrupted. Now I run a simple Samba file server. Really all I needed in the first place. Short answer is I wiped it SSD drive, so no upgrade.log to send you.

@sdetweil Well that got me no where. I still have the black screen and when I ctrl+m it says electron instead of MagicMirror.
So I just renamed MagicMirror to MM and reinstalled with your script I have the backup restore module saved so I can reinstall my modules quickly and with minimal effort. The mirror looks better already…

My MagicMirror was working and I was doing some customizing of the css ect. all went as planned. UNTIL, I ran “sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y” and when it was finished, “sudo reboot” Now I cannot get MM to start.
So I ran “npm outdated” and found electron missing.
So I found bugsounets electron install on GitHub.
“npm install magicmirror-rebuild --save” and ran it.
another “sudo reboot” still cannot get MM to start. pm2 shows it loaded and when I go into VNC , Using ctrl+m I see , electron instead of MagicMirror is minimised. What did I do wrong this is a fresh install a couple days ago.
pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $ npm -v
8.11.0
pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $ node -v
v16.16.0
pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $ npx electron -v
v19.0.9
pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $
Here are my electron, npm and node versions.

HELP…

@MMRIZE
I will be happy to test when I get back home. You have my email already.
Send me a link or whatever so I can try it when I get back or if can get this chrome book changed over so i can run a MagicMirror on it…

@BKeyport Ok thanks for the information…

The readme has you go to RapidAPI.com and get an API.
From looking around in there, It looks like they use the same api for anything you want in their site… Ya I forgot he told someone on here he was out of contact for a bit…

@BKeyport
Where are you getting OMX so that it installs for MM?
Everywhere I look it fails to install or has dead links to the program’s dependents.
Please explain like you are talking to a child. I am still trying to figure this all out, one of these days it will hit me like a brick and I will not be bugging you all so much…

I have the same issue with VLC it is out of control on the size issue on my screen.

Hey @mykle1 ,
What am I looking for at RapidAPI.com to get this module to show something besides Meow ? I have an API but it does not seem to work.

@sdetweil said in Cron Job Question:

@plainbroke autoreconfig?

u don’t have to build motion, they have binaries (on every platform I’ve tried so far)

my script (launched by something outside mm)
creates an empty file in a known folder for each motion event

detected
ended

my module node_helper watches for those files to be created, and then sends notification to my module side to signal sleep or wake depending on the config.

the default folder is ‘motion’ inside the MMM-SleepWake folder

the script locates the running mm instance, and uses it’s path to locate the module folder and this it’s motion folder

the script assumes the path includes the username mm is running under and that username is used to set file permissions, so the module can remove them after processing the detection

So if I send a empty file ended to the motion folder in MMM-SleepWake that triggers the timer in config.js to blank screen?
and then in the morning send empty file detected to the same motion folder in MMM-SleepWake it should turn the modules back on.
Have I got this correct in my head or am I still wondering at sea?
