Install MMM-GoogleAssistant on windows, error: argument --credentials: No such file or directory: "***credentials.json"

I change this to :
default=‘C:\Users\myname\AppData\Roaming\google-oauthlib-tool\credentials.json’,

And another issue appeared:

@vivian0239 I don’t think he has tested on windows.

I suspect the voice reco tool, snowboy, still does not work on windows

Thank you for your reply! It’s really bad news.

@vivian0239 I am sure @Bugsounet will clarify

snowboy CAN works in windows but with a LOT of modifications and still very too complex

so i prefer say this: actually there is no way to work under windows environement

best way for using MagicMirror and complex module under windows is virtualization of a linux debian machine

virtualbox
download linux debian and install it in virtualbox
install magicmirror and modules :)

result:

full emulation of linux machine
all package is compatible with debian because rapsbian Os is make is a modified debian version
snowboy works (but not sure this wersion of this module works… because google make a lot of library update)

at begining, i have coded with this method ;)

@Bugsounet will MagicMirror in docker container work?

A Former User

never try
