Using module while running MM in Docker?

[simonsolberg]

Is it possible to use this module while running MagicMirror as a server in docker?

If yes, please add this to the readme? :)

Sorry, I haven't tested that condition, so cannot tell you whether possible or not.

@eouia ok so the following seems to be working:

Step 1 in installation has to be done this way:
docker exec -it -w /opt/magic_mirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos magic_mirror npm install
This will execute the install command

Auth_and_test.js can be run this way:
docker exec -it -w /opt/magic_mirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos magic_mirror node auth_and_test.js
This will print a link that you will need to copy to a browser, after authenticating in the browser, copy the code back to the docker TTY, this will then print the album IDs.

However I can't seem to get photos to show up on my magic mirror.

If I check my https://console.developers.google.com/apis/dashboard site the album list request came through to Google API, but no other requests have come through..

Any ideas?

What log of MM says? It will leave some server-side log what this module try.

like this;

@eouia turns out i forgot a , after the last closing bracket of the config file.

So I got it working using docker. Would you like me to send a pull request updating the readme with instructions for docker?

I don't know if this is the best way to do it, but I tried :)
