`node-libgpiod` uses deprecated NAN which is incompatible with Electron
v39+. `serialport` uses N-API ensuring compatibility with current and
future Electron versions.
`node-libgpiod` is only used by 1 of ~1300 3rd-party-modules
(MMM-PresenceScreenControl), while serialport is used by at least 4
modules (MMM-Serial-Notification, MMM-RadarPresence, MMM-LKY-TIC and
MMM-Gestures), making it a better test candidate.
Also updates Electron to v39.
Fixes#3933
electron uses node v22.18 in its [current
releases](https://releases.electronjs.org/), so we should go hand in
hand and use that as the minimal node version
This has the advantage that the package manager is no longer involved
after the installation process.
However, previous start commands such as `npm run start` continue to
work. So we don't even have to adapt the documentation.
user reporting slow/no connection/timeout errors on armv6l for calendar,
and newsfeed
we can increase the timeout by adding calls to the undici lib, but it
requires node 20.18.1 or above.
this adds the support for timeout
(also environment variable to override if needed,, mmFetchTimeout
(default 30 seconds)
and updates the base node version
Related to #3573
I think it's better to keep new library node-libgpiod for testing
(library to manage RPI gpio for pir sensor management) and delete others
Only one test is better
# Update electron-rebuild.yaml
* remove onoff library: Not updated since 3 years, don't work with last
rpi Os
* add node-libgpiod library in replacement
Beside testing against node version `v20.x` and `v22.x` we should also
test against the minimal node version, currently `v20.9.0`.
This is for seeing changes in dependencies which needs higher node
version as with the July-24-release, where we wrote `node >=20` but
shipped an `eslint` version which required `node>=20.9.0`.
