I provide docker images with alpine linux and tested the new cors
approach.
It didn't work because after calling
```js
const dispatcher = new Agent({ connect: { lookup: (_h, _o, cb) => cb(null, address, family) } });
```
the dispatcher variable was undefined.
This PR solves this and I tested this under debian too.
The mix of internal fetch and newer undici did not work and alpine needs
additionally the `process.nextTick`.

PR #4084 blocked SSRF by checking the IP before `fetch()` — but
`fetch()` resolves DNS again on its own. With DNS rebinding (TTL=0,
alternating IPs) an attacker can slip a private IP through between check
and connection.
Fix: resolve DNS once, validate, pin the validated IP for the
connection.
No second DNS query → no rebinding window. `isPrivateTarget()` is gone,
code is shorter than before.
Not a likely attack for a typical MagicMirror setup, but it doesn't add
complexity so there's no reason not to close the gap.
Resolve target hostname before proxying and reject any address that is
not globally routable (loopback, RFC 1918, link-local, etc.) using
ipaddr.js and dns.lookup().
In PR #4072 the GitHub bot complained about a missing variable
declaration for `config` in `app.js` and suggested adding `let config`.
Applying that suggestion broke the app because `server_functions.js` was
accessing `config` as an implicit global variable - the `let`
declaration made it unreachable from there.
So instead of the `let` declaration, I replaced all bare `config`
references with explicit `global.config`. This makes the dependency on
the global variable visible without changing runtime behavior,
consistent with how other globals like `global.root_path` and
`global.version` are already handled throughout the codebase.
Related to #4073
and centralize and optimize replace regex.
Another follow up to #4029
With this PR you can use secrets in urls in browser modules if you use
the cors proxy.
## Loading `config.js`
### Previously
Loaded on server-side in `app.js` and in the browser by including
`config.js` in `index.html`. The web server has an endpoint `/config`
providing the content of server loaded `config.js`.
### Now
Loaded only on server-side in `app.js`. The browser loads the content
using the web server endpoint `/config`. So the server has control what
to provide to the clients.
Loading the `config.js` was moved to `Utils.js` so that
`check_config.js` can use the same functions.
## Using environment variables in `config.js`
### Previously
Environment variables were not allowed in `config.js`. The workaround
was to create a `config.js.template` with curly braced bash variables
allowed. While starting the app the `config.js.template` was converted
via `envsub` into a `config.js`.
### Now
Curly braced bash variables are allowed in `config.js`. Because only the
server loads `config.js` he can substitute the variables while loading.
## Secrets in MagicMirror²
To be honest, this is a mess.
### Previously
All content defined in the `config` directory was reachable from the
browser. Everyone with access to the site could see all stuff defined in
the configuration e.g. using the url http://ip:8080/config. This
included api keys and other secrets.
So sharing a MagicMirror² url to others or running MagicMirror² without
authentication as public website was not possible.
### Now
With this PR we add (beta) functionality to protect sensitive data. This
is only possible for modules running with a `node_helper`. For modules
running in the browser only (e.g. default `weather` module), there is no
way to hide data (per construction). This does not mean, that every
module with `node_helper` is safe, e.g. the default `calendar` module is
not safe because it uses the calendar url's as sort of id and sends them
to the client.
For adding more security you have to set `hideConfigSecrets: true` in
`config.js`. With this:
- `config/config.env` is not deliverd to the browser
- the contents of environment variables beginning with `SECRET_` are not
published to the clients
This is a first step to protect sensitive data and you can at least
protect some secrets.
Since the project's inception, I've missed a clear separation between
default and third-party modules.
This increases complexity within the project (exclude `modules`, but not
`modules/default`), but the mixed use is particularly problematic in
Docker setups.
Therefore, with this pull request, I'm moving the default modules to a
different directory.
~~I've chosen `default/modules`, but I'm not bothered about it;
`defaultmodules` or something similar would work just as well.~~
Changed to `defaultmodules`.
Let me know if there's a majority in favor of this change.
## CI Log Suppression
**Two-level approach for clean test output:**
1. **Suppress debug/info logs**: Call `logger.setLogLevel("ERROR")` in
CI to hide verbose logging
2. **Suppress intentional error logs**: Set `mmTestMode` flag and check
it before logging errors that are part of test assertions (e.g., testing
error handling in `git_helper.js` and `server_functions.js`)
This keeps CI output clean and makes genuine failures immediately
visible, while preserving full logging for local development.
**Before:** 1348 log lines with verbose debug/info output
**After:** 168 log clean lines with only test results
## Calendar Symbol Test Stability
Convert the calendar symbol test from external URL (`calendarlabs.com`)
to existing local mock file (`12_events.ics`). This eliminates CI
timeouts caused by external dependencies and improves test reliability.
The test still validates the same symbol array feature but now runs
faster and deterministically without network dependencies.
## Description
This PR adds a new `server:watch` script that runs MagicMirror² in
server-only mode with automatic restart and browser reload capabilities.
Particularly helpful for:
- **Developers** who need to see changes immediately without manual
restarts.
- **Users setting up their mirror** who make many changes to `config.js`
or `custom.css` and need quick feedback.
### What it does
When you run `npm run server:watch`, the watcher monitors files you
specify in `config.watchTargets`. Whenever a monitored file changes:
1. The server automatically restarts
2. Waits for the port to become available
3. Sends a reload notification to all connected browsers via Socket.io
4. Browsers automatically refresh to show the changes
This creates a seamless development experience where you can edit code,
save, and see the results within seconds.
### Implementation highlights
**Zero dependencies:** Uses only Node.js built-ins (`fs.watch`,
`child_process.spawn`, `net`, `http`) - no nodemon or external watchers
needed.
**Smart file watching:** Monitors parent directories instead of files
directly to handle atomic writes from modern editors (VSCode, etc.) that
create temporary files during save operations.
**Port management:** Waits for the old server instance to fully release
the port before starting a new one, preventing "port already in use"
errors.
### Configuration
Users explicitly define which files to monitor in their `config.js`:
```js
let config = {
watchTargets: [
"config/config.js",
"css/custom.css",
"modules/MMM-MyModule/MMM-MyModule.js",
"modules/MMM-MyModule/node_helper.js"
],
// ... rest of config
};
```
This explicit approach keeps the implementation simple (~260 lines)
while giving users full control over what triggers restarts. If
`watchTargets` is empty or undefined, the watcher starts but monitors
nothing, logging a clear warning message.
---
**Note:** This PR description has been updated to reflect the final
implementation. During the review process, we refined the approach
multiple times based on feedback.

Fixes#3253
Adds a configuration option to overwrite the default `User-Agent` header
that is send at least by the calendar and news module. Allows other
modules to use the individual user agent as well.
The configuration accepts either a string or a function:
```
var config =
{
...
userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (My User Agent)',
...
}
```
or
```
var config =
{
...
userAgent: () => 'Mozilla/5.0 (My User Agent)',
...
}
```

in some cases the modulename.js may need to detect running in test mode
(compliments pr #3630)
window.name is not set web mode
add a new field to the index.html
window.intest
and use the server_function to replace the hard coded string like we do
for window.mmversion=#VERSION#
then change the two test helpers to set the env variable
app.js detects and sets global.intest=true
server func replace with value of global.intest
then module can use if(window.intest)
… for setting these things from outside (and overriding corresponding
config.js properties `config.foreignModulesDir` and `customCss`)
- remove elements from index.html when loading script or stylesheet
files fails
- removed `config.paths.vendor` (could never work because `vendor` is
hardcoded in `index.html`) and renamed `config.paths.modules` to
`config.foreignModulesDir`. The `config.paths. ...` properties were
implemented in the initial commit in `js/defaults.js` but were never
functional.
- fixes `app.js` which didn't respect `config.paths.modules` before
- as `modules/defaults` is directly set in many places in the source
code restrict `config.paths.modules` to foreign modules (it has never
worked for default modules), now renamed to `config.foreignModulesDir`
- adds new `/env` section in `server.js` for getting the new env vars in
the browser
- fixes TODO in `server.js` so test directories are now only published
when running tests
These changes allow changing some main paths from outside mm with the
new env vars. You now **can** put all user stuff into one directory,
e.g. the `config` dir:
- `config.js` as before
- `custom.css`
- foreign modules
This would simplify other setups e.g. the docker setup. At the moment we
have to deal with 3 directories where 2 of them (`modules` and `css`)
contains mixed stuff, which means mm owned files and user files. This
can now simplified and leads to cleaner setups (if wanted).
I felt like adding a spell checker, but it's okay if you find it
superfluous. At least then we could fix the found spell issues.
What is still missing is an automatic integration so that the spell
checker does not have to be called manually. Would it perhaps make sense
to always do it before a release?
It is basically a cosmetic thing, but has the following advantages:
1. Consistency with the official node documentation. The prefix is used
there.
2. It is easier to recognize the build-in modules.
