Ugh. My apologies. I did the stop/start and rebooted and did it again and now it’s showing up on the screen. Must have been a temporary glitch or something.

Sorry to have wasted your time.

How to get MMM-transitfeed working on a new installation of MagicMirror (based on @sdetweil’s assistance)

These are the steps I went through to get the module working after encountering version mismatch errors:

Note that I was starting with a clean install of Raspberry PiOS. I made no changes prior to the steps outlined below:

First, I installed MagicMirror using Sam Detweil’s script:

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"

Next, I installed the transitfeed module:

{ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules git clone https://github.com/bnitkin/MMM-transitfeed.git }

Then this reset the libraries:

{ cd ~/MagicMirror rm -rf node_modules git checkout package.json git checkout package-lock.json npm run install-mm }

I installed the electron rebuild package:

npm install @electron/rebuild

Next, I reset the module info:

{ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed rm -rf node_modules git checkout package.json git checkout package-lock.json npm install }

At this point, I installed gtfs:

{ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed npm install gtfs }

And lastly, I rebuilt sqlite3:

{ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-transitfeed ../../node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild }

Here I added the default config from the module’s github page to my config.js and started the mirror. It worked!

Many thanks to Sam for his patience, knowledge, and caring assistance.

@UncleRoger if you forked mine you can submit a pull request for me to include your changes

@UncleRoger
You can use this;

.CX3 .event.fullday.multiday .headline .time { display:none; }

(I’ll add this to the next update to be the default.)

So the fix appears to be* to add the following line of code to the MMM-BackgroundSlideshow.js file at line ~175:

//Quick and dirty fix to redirect the notification this.socketNotificationReceived(notification,payload);

Seems to be working now.

(Just adding this in case someone comes here to search for an answer first before going to Github.)

Okay,
a new message will remove the first message but the message must not be empty. Empty messages will be ignored. So you have to write something like “-” in the headline

@sdetweil said in How to let user change font size in config file?:

then showed them how to use custom.css

I’m afraid that would be like having a toddler show someone how to fly a helicopter. 8^)

I kinda understand the general idea of CSS but I certainly don’t know how to do anything with it. I’m really just sorta stumbling around picking up bits and bobs from other people and trying to MacGyver them into something functional.

FYI, I’ve published and posted in the modules/showcase forum.

@sdetweil
That fixed it, thank you so much.

@sdetweil Okay, I think that makes sense. Thanks!

There is a module that works with pages. You can have one page fullscreen the picture and on the other the information.

But I did not try that out.
