I'm thoroughly confused, how do you run MMPM?

[austinthetaco]

When I ssh in, i see the MMPM in the run/ folder under rpi_mmpm.yml, but it doesn't appear to be running, and typing the "mmpm" command doesn't do anything either. Am i missing something basic here?

Its running using docker as written in the README here.

You can run mmpm as docker container (magicmirror runs as docker container too).

For this you must replace the current docker-compose.yml in ~/magicmirror/run with the content of rpi_mmpm.yml, e.g. you can cd into ~/magicmirror/run and execute cp rpi_mmpm.yml docker-compose.yml.

After this execute docker-compose up -d in the same folder. It will take some time to download the mmpm image. After starting the MMPM-GUI is available under <your-ip>:7890.

Might be worth adding this to the README

Thats already documented in the docker setup of mmpm.

Thats already documented in the docker setup of mmpm.

Which obviously makes it unclear in this repo. someone shouldn't need to go to the docker container docs to understand a feature in the code repo
