      Hi Experts :-)

      i’ve connected a temperature and humidity sensor DHT22 and would like to show these values.
      Is it possible to build some new module for this?

      Maybe it’s not necessary, i can readout the values via phyton script, but don’t know to integrate them…

      Greetings from Germany,
      stefanh

          Think it might be possible. Think it can Be useable.

          First hit in Google btw.

          Spit through code And learn? Or wait utill someone will have some sparetime.

              Where will I need to install node-dht-sensor using it with MagicMirror?

              a: ~/MagicMirror/ folder
              b: ~/MagicMirror/modules/ folder
              c: ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/ folder

              using this command: npm install node-dht-sensor

              I would like to use it in node_helper.js inside a new module.

              Thanks!

                @Bangee go into the directory of your new module e.g. ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/ and type npm init and follow the instructions, after that type npm install --save node-dht-sensor

                Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                    @Bangee depending on your other post about this problem in a different thread I assume you have a newer node version installed as you had on your old sd card, so maybe this will help you https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/rebuild

                      @strawberry-3-141 I’ve tried this before, but did not work for me. I’ve also made a reboot.

                      Will i need to have a downgrade?

                        @Bangee never had such an issue before, did a clean install instead of copying images on sdcard, is there a reason why you copied an old image?

                          ah no, I’ve made a new installation on a brand new sd card.
                          I moved my own moduls. the temperature module is a new one.

                          But I’ve got the same with @paviro PIR moudle… :-(

                            did you copy all the node_modules directories? if so this is propably the issue go to the module remove the directories and run npm install

                              No, I’ve installed the node_modules with npm install.

                                  I could fix this with the same workaround as the PIR Sensor.

                                  now its runnig but electron start up everything and crashes after loading all data.

                                  Any idea howto debug this? ther is nothing in my error logs…

                                    Hi, i’m a totally beginner and the temperature/ humidity sensor is one of my first modules i want to install by myself. Here is the github link:

                                    https://github.com/bernardpletikosa/MMM-DHT-Sensor

                                    This were the first things i did:

                                    pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
                                    pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone https://github.com/bernardpletikosa/MMM-DHT-Sensor.git
                                    Klone nach 'MMM-DHT-Sensor'...
                                    remote: Counting objects: 18, done.
                                    remote: Total 18 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 18
                                    Entpacke Objekte: 100% (18/18), Fertig.
                                    Prüfe Konnektivität... Fertig.
                                    pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ cd MMM-DHT-Sensor
                                    pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-DHT-Sensor $ npm install
                                    

                                    But then there came these lines:

                                    npm WARN prefer global node-gyp@3.6.0 should be installed with -g
