MMM-Fitbit2 PythonShell is not a constructor

Tippon

I set up MMM-Fitbit2 recently, and have gone through the setup and authorisation. It seemed to go ok, but now it stops at loading. There’s a PythonShell error in the logs, which seems to be affecting a few other modules.

I’ve tried to use the fixes for some of the other modules, but I don’t know enough to get them to work.

I’ve attached the error below. Does anyone know how to fix it please?

@tippon as I recall the node_helper.js code has to change the require statement to look like this

const {PythonShell} = require( 'python-shell');

just add the braces around the word
PythonShell

@sdetweil Once again, you are a superstar. It’s working, thank you

I thought I’d tried that the other night, but for some reason it didn’t work. I don’t know if I typed it in wrong, or if I messed it up when I tried to do it remotely through my phone. Either way, it’s working now, and I’m a happy bunny
