Alexa Lists on Magic Mirror

Ok, got that fixed and now I’m getting some responses in the startup messages. it appears to be looking for a module “showdown” that I cant seem to find.

Thank you for the pointers concerning the brackets. little by little I’ll learn.

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run start

@ndaphne looks like you didn’t do all the installation instructions as listed by the module readme

ndaphne

@sdetweil Boy I’m not sure what I missed

I’m certain I ran the installer and the “run install” command to install dependents.
Is there something I’m just not seeing?

thank you for tolerating my shortcomings here. It’s deeply appreciated.

sdetweil

@ndaphne from the install instructions

1. Navigate into your MagicMirror's modules folder and execute git clone https://github.com/cbrooker/MMM-Todoist.git. 

A new folder will appear

 navigate into it.

2. Execute npm install to install the node dependencies.

spacing is mine

step 2 was not done, or was not done where required

ndaphne

@sdetweil It works!!
I feel pretty silly now. I’m not sure how I misread that so many times… thank you so much for the help and hopefully I will pay closer attention.

thank you again!
