JediJah

@sdetweil Yeah that was my bad… the mirror loads now without the module…

I did clone the repo as required??

@JediJah said in MMM-NYC-Transit Module (Black Screen):

Cannot find module ‘mta-realtime-subway-departures’

but it looks like you didn’t follow the module install instructions

1. clone this repo with the following command: git clone https://github.com/Elaniobro/MMM-nyc-transit.git
2. install all the npm modules with either yarn install or npm install

to do 2, you need to change into the module folder

git clone ......
cd MMM-nyc-transit
npm install

@sdetweil
Looks like I ran npm install on modules dir.

pi@MagicMirror2:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone https://github.com/Elaniobro/MMM-nyc-transit.git

I will correct as you noted.

@sdetweil Thank you immensely for you help. It is running now.
