CTRL-C isn’t an option cause I’m us
Hi, maybe you can use my bash script mmhelper.sh to start/stop MagicMirror from the command line or from another script (e.q. python, nodejs).
#!/bin/bash
#
# mmhelper.sh start | stop | status | hdmi_on | hdmi_off| hdmi_status

You also need the mm.sh script in your home directory!
pm2 flush
# start Magic Mirror system
cd ~/MagicMirror
DISPLAY=:0 npm start
Merry Christmas!
