as we get more users, we see the same errors occurring after each quarterly upgrade…

i have started a script to do this for the users…

lets collaborate and get it working…

I’ll maintain a copy on my dropbox…
https://www.dropbox.com/s/71xtxr18si7cpnq/upgrade-script.sh?dl=0

right now it doesn’t DO the npm installs… (flag for that)
we need to determine which files are important on the git pull ( i use fetch/diff to get the list of changed files)
and what to do about them… reset hard or stash /stash pop after…

know that package.json, package-lock.json and custom.css are files of concern so far…

it find all modules which have a package.json, and goes into each and does npm install if the base npm install works…

we know that some modules are difficult , because their electron version must match the base…
how can we detect that and run electron-rebuild…

always hate telling people to look, but where??

now its on the top bar.

@sdetweil probably node_helper missing

Do

cd ~/MagicMirror
git checkout modules/node_modules/node_helper/index.js

@jalibu as this a community constructed place, have at it. build whatever u want.

@lusiess01 ok, we have seen this only a few times… but in each case it was a problem with the memory card. stuff written doesn’t stick…

there is a problem with the original module… I have a fixed version
here https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic

Do this

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
mv  MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic  MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic.original
git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
cd MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
npm install

then restart the mirror app

@macg

where xxx is the library noted in the message cannot find module xxx

so your message was

 Cannot find module 'request'

so xxx is

request

just to clarify
there are MORE libraries not found than just request. so I am trying to teach you all how to read the messages and understand what to do…

Description

Enable MagicMirror sleep from external (camera) sources

If you are running the MM on a non PI device, or want to control sleep/wake without having to wire up another device, this module will take external info and signal MM to sleep or wake up.

I use a Webcam camera for the motion detection, driven by the github Motion project.
That project allows for a script to be run when motion starts and ends. I provide a script that
creates a file for both events, and the module detects those files.

the module supports sleep and wake 3 different ways… On PI using the tvservice command, or the exec dpms command if not using HDMI, or hiding all modules if using an energystar monitor (like my tv)

I have submitted changes to MMM-voice and HelloLucy to allow our modules to know about the others processing… so voice Go To Sleep and motion wakeup work… if using the Hide method, modules already hidden at sleep will remain hidden on wakeup.

@davidt89 said in Magic(Dashboard)Mirror:

But, how do you get MMM-MyCalendar to work?

this module is missing a package.json file to record the use of the valid-url library, which was removed in MM 2.16

SO, you can add it back

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install valid-url
