      Hi,
      when trying to install the MMM-ImageFileWatcher module I get a warning that fsevents is not supported on this platform:

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd MagicMirror/
      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ cd modules
      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone https://github.com/basknol/MMM-ImageFileWatcher.git
      Klone nach 'MMM-ImageFileWatcher' ...

      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ cd MMM-ImageFileWatcher/
      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-ImageFileWatcher $ npm install
      npm notice created a lockfile as package-lock.json. You should commit this file.

      Is there any known solution for this?
      Cheers
