      @sdetweil Not sure I know what you mean. When I put this in my config the screen is all blank:

          {
              module: "MMM-Sunrise-Sunset",
              position: "top_right",
              header: "Sunrise",
              config: {
                  latitude: "39.2907",
                  longitude: "-75.6344",
                  apikey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
                  layout: "inline"
                      }
          },

        @pugsly open the developers window on your blank screen MM, using ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard… select the tab labeled console and scroll up to find any errors

            this module depends on jquery library being installed for this module, but its not…,

            I am working on instructions for you… hang on

            do

            cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Sunrise-Sunset
            npm install jquery
            # note the trailing dot (.) on the next line
            cp node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js .
            

            then start your mirror again

                @pugsly ok, open the developers window again

                this usually means that the api key is wrong … the api isn’t returning data

                  Its not passing the API key in the HTML request.

                        @sdetweil: Thank you so much for your help here. I’m having the exact same problem as @pugsly did, but unfortunately your suggestions seem to not do the trick. I was wondering if you could help me out, too. So far I got:

                                                {
                        			module: "MMM-Sunrise-Sunset",
                        			position: "bottom_bar",
                        			config: {
                        				apiKey: "xxx", 				
                        				latitude: "xx.03586",
                        				longitude: "xx.06379",
                        				timezone: "Europe/Berlin",
                        				layout: "inline"
                        				}
                        		},
                        

                        My screen stays black, though, and the developer console is giving me this:

                        Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined
                        at Class.updateSun (MMM-Sunrise-Sunset.js:33)
                        at Class.start (MMM-Sunrise-Sunset.js:12)
                        at startModules (loader.js:55)
                        at loader.js:40
                        at HTMLLinkElement.stylesheet.onload (loader.js:200)
                        

                        I even tried executing your suggestions as root, thinking that I must’ve done something wrong, but I got the same error messages as before:

                        root@raspberrypi:/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Sunrise-Sunset# npm install jquery

                        What am I missing here?

                            That seems to have been a copy/paste-error. My terminal history shows it with the underscore. To make sure, I tried it once again, but still get

                                … I’m starting to wonder if I messed up something bigger in the beginning since almost any change I apply to config.js results in weird errors.

                                  after rebooting, the black screen of MagicMirror now shows this in the developer console:

                                  I’m really starting to think I do something stupid everytime I install/clone a module from github. I do follow each readme.md for installation, but somehow keep messing up :-/

                                    @dankerthrone installing a new module is pretty easy

                                    cd MagicMirror/modules
                                    git clone http:// the url of the git repo
                                    cd the name of the module
                                    

                                    if there is a package.,json file, then to load its dependencies do

                                    npm install 
                                    

                                    then

                                    cd ~/MagicMirror/config
                                    nano config.js
                                    
                                    insert the module definition  info, (see the module readme.md)
                                    save
                                    

                                    then restart mirror app

                                    this module does NOT list its dependency on jquery as it should
                                    so, you have to fix it manually.

                                    SO, i don’t know where you were when u did the npm install jquery
                                    lets find it

                                    cd ~/MagicMirror
                                    find . | grep jquery\.js

                                      the XKCD errors look like poor programming by the author

                                        finding jquery as you suggested returns

                                        pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ find . | grep jquery\.js
                                        ./node_modules/nwmatcher/src/modules/nwmatcher-jquery.js

                                          @dankerthrone hm… not where I would have expected it…

                                          so. lets try this again

                                          cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Sunrise-Sunset
                                          npm install jquery
                                          ls node_modules/jquery
                                          

                                          you should see this

                                          AUTHORS.txt  LICENSE.txt  README.md  bower.json  dist  external  package.json  src
                                          

                                          then do

                                           cp node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js .
                                          

                                          then

                                          ls jquery.js
                                          

                                          to prove the file is in the module folder

                                            Late to the game, but I also am getting black screen after installing the module and adding it to my config. Ill try to give you the steps:

                                            Did the git pull. Went into the folder, npm install.

                                            Added this to my config:

                                            {          
                                            module: 'MMM-Sunrise-Sunset', 
                                            position: "bottom_center",
                                            config: {
                                            latitude: "69.13",
                                            longitude: "18.59",
                                            apiKey: "myAPI",
                                            layout: "inline",
                                              }
                                            }, 
                                            

                                            I also tried @sdetweil post, without any difference. I find the files as listed, did pm2 restart mm without any help.

                                            Ideas?
