npm
,pm2

sudo apt install libffi-dev nginx-full -y
python3 -m pip install --upgrade --no-cache-dir mmpm
mmpm --guided-setup
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
If you happen to see the following after installing and running a mmpm
command:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 2, in <module>
from setuptools import setup, find_packages

Run the following command to shore up your pip
version:
python -m ensurepip --upgrade # you may need to call python3 instead of python
Look to the Wiki
Make sure you've followed all the instructions for installation, configuring environment variables, and the hide/show modules feature setup.
Note: the Environment Variables setup is extremely important.
Consult the Wiki before posting any issues, and use one of the provided templates (if possible) when filing an issue.
For any bugs encountered, examine the log files by running mmpm log
. If creating a GitHub issue is
needed, use one of the issue templates, and please attach the log files, your config.js
, and
provide what steps can be take to reproduce the bug. You can create a ZIP archive of the MMPM log
files files through the Control Center of the GUI, or by running mmpm log --zip
through the CLI. If for some reason you cannot access mmpm log --zip
, you can find the files in ~/.config/mmpm/log
and /var/log/nginx
. All log files for MMPM in /var/log/nginx
will be prefixed with either mmpm-access
or mmpm-error
.

This project is entirely dependent on the structure of the MagicMirror 3rd Party Modules page. The HTML is parsed, and the appropriate text of each module is extracted. If for some reason any of the information is not displayed correctly, it is most likely due to someone changing the structure of the page. Ideally, in the future, a database will be constructed, and things will be handeled in a more formal, predictable way.
