Raspberri Pi Zero W moment is not defined.

During npm install I get
http-auth@3.1.3: wanted: {"node":">=4.6.1"} (current: {"node":"4.2.1","npm":"2.14.7"})
I’m not sure if having an older version will change anything but 4.2.1 is the latest for armhf.

I’m running MagicMirror as node serveronly and using midori as my driver. It loads fine without config.js. But when I switch to using the config file I get
moment is not defined in compliments.js.
For some reason it also errors on the ES6 syntax? The function operator => also errors so I changed compliment.js to use the standard function syntax.

I’ve just deleted all node_modules and am rerunning npm install.
I get this error

It still runs in serveronly mode (without config.js) though. I don’t need electron anyway.
But then when I use config.js i get:

http://localhost:8080/modules/default/clock//clock.js @77: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: moment

This is the the same for compliments, weather etc
if I npm install --save moment nothing changes.

What is weird is the logs also say:
Message: console message: [native code] @0: File already loaded: moment.js

@Penson122 try to do npm install in /home/pi/MagicMirror/vendor

Penson122

That did it thanks. Weird that npm install wasn’t installing the vender dependencies. I assume it’s because the electron install failed? I’ve seen in other posts that the vendor dependencies should be installed automatically which is why they’re not mentioned in the docs.

Maybe it should be included in the documentation?

I’m with the same problem, even running npm install into /vendor I continue with the same error

Any ideia?
