    • RE: cant get magicmirror to show up on screen

      Hm, like I said, anything I’m suggesting at this stage is purely experimental as I have no experience with setting up the MagicMirror electron environment, but you could try upgrading your node installation.

      Please only do that if you are willing to set up your Pi all over again (Reinstalling Raspbian, etc.) should this fail, because it’s hardly ever a good idea to turn your system into a patchwork project.

      Someone at stackexchange.com said this helped them in installing Node.js on their Pi 3:

      curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
      sudo apt-get install -y nodejs 
      sudo apt-get install -y build-essential
      

      Source: http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/45319/install-newer-node-version-on-pi-3

      If you’re not willing to reinstall everything, should this compromise your Raspbian setup, I would suggest waiting for other forum members’ suggestions on how to proceed.

    • RE: cant get magicmirror to show up on screen

      This would mean that there seems to be a problem with your electron installation. Since you’ve got a Pi 3, I would try to get that fixed, it’s much easier to have the mirror act the way you want it to if the kiosk mode comes up automatically. I’m running the mirror on a Pi 1 and it took me forever to get everything set up so that the system boots into the mirror, I had to make sure the browser didn’t start too early, and so on. It requires many manual modifications and I’m almost certain that’s not the path you want to take :).

      Your mirror installation is not properly set up, I would try to fix that.

      I’m not sure if the problem on your system is electron or the mirror installation, as I’m not able to use electron on my Pi I have no experience with using it. But you can try going to your MagicMirror folder and typing in: “npm install electron”, this may set things right.

      If it doesn’t, maybe try a reinstall.

      Ok, there might be a problem with your electron installation.
      Can you go into your MagicMirror folder and type “node serveronly”?

      Then, go back to your browser window and type in “localhost:8080”

      What information comes up when you enter “pm2 logs mm” in the terminal window?

      Alright. What happens when you open a browser window on your Pi and go to http://localhost:8080?

      Are you, by any chance, using a Raspberry Pi 1?

    • RE: MMM-Wunderground - dates are off??

      @amanzimdwini Don’t give me any ideas, I’m burning the midnight oil as it stands :D. But I guess it would be quite a feat if the mirror reacted to my moods as well.

      I do want to share my tweaks and modifications, at the same time I’m aware that they are extremely tailored to my needs and likes. That’s why I need to make them customizable before it makes sense to post them online. Otherwise, people will just come back to me asking me to change this and that again, because they like certain features but not others. What it all boils down to: I need to clean up my code and make it mergeable with the main branch of the project so that @RedNax can simply incorporate my changes into the main module. I’ve promised myself I would to that in the next few days. At the same time, he’s just introcduced a nice new layout option and I need to incorporate that into my code lines first. It’s an uphill battle :D.

      You can find my fork of the MMM-WunderGround module here, feel free to check its state again after the weekend. I will also pot any notice here, so maybe add the thread to your watchlist.

    • RE: Schedule a function in a module.

      Hey @veryaner, I’m currently working on a module that implements node-cron and it’s running fine. If you’re still looking for an answer, let me know.

      Since we’re typo-hunting, it should also be “powerful”.

      Wow, great work!
      This kind of production quality is normally only found in projects that try to sell you something :). Well, I’m sold, keep up the outstanding work.
