@Senathon npm install clear
in the module folder

@Senathon supported? not by the mm team ( this forum)

and it looks like the author hasn’t updated in quite a while.

I made a script out of the install steps.
download from here,

https://www.dropbox.com/s/omrx3vztjp738hf/do-install.sh?dl=0

mark executable and execute it. does everything.
git clone on…

After running NPM install for Clear, Figlet, and Inquirer and running the script (from sdetweil), I get the following error:

mmm-awesome-alexa@1.0.0 config-helper
node config-helper.js

/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-awesome-alexa/config-helper.js:4
const inquirer = require(“inquirer”);

@Senathon weird. my system is down for some reason, will check when I get it running again…

just a simple reboot,and it doesn’t come back. grrrr

@Senathon i did so test install checks and after fixing a couple things, it hears the request, but can’t send it…

my service on another platform works… so something is wrong with this module… but it hasn’t been maintained in years. .
