Environment Variables disable features.... #3302
Description
In researching for documentation purposes I've been finding all sorts of issues using the environment variables to multi-screen. I'm using bookworm, wayland turned off.
-
using MM_CONFIG_FILE produces weird results:
A) the following config options are ignored: port, electronOptions, address (see next)
B) It'll set up the address on [::1]:8080 by default, rather than whatever address is commanded to do. I don't use IPV6 due to ISP non-support, so that puts it unavailable.
C) Due to this, was unable to test if ipWhitelist functions, but all other seems to function. -
using MM_PORT does move the port to the correct port, but still leaves it on address [::1]
relevant config2.js portion
var config = {
address: "0.0.0.0",
port: 8081,
ipWhitelist: [],
language: "en",
timeFormat: 12,
units: "imperial",
//logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR", "DEBUG"],
modules: [bash script launch (mm2.sh):
cd /home/bkey1970/MagicMirror
export MM_CONFIG_FILE=${pwd}/config/config2.js
export MM_PORT=8081
npm startCurrently, system is designed to have the "2" launch show up on screen 1, and the non-redirected go to screen 2 to work around bugs partially. If possible to fix bugs, I would then revert back to using 1 for screen 1, 2 for screen 2.
