No JavaScript experience - Config.js not working

[OlesonCrypto]

Hey guys, I’ve been running into issues the past week on this config.js file alone. I took out my some of the private links I had for obvious reasons, but I’m mostly concerned with the syntax and actually having this modules show up on my screen. I can see the Magic Mirror^2 on my Raspberry Pi monitor. When running npm run config:check I would keep getting results like: " Parsing error: Unexpected token basePath", “Parsing error: Unexpected token ipWhitelist” & “Parsing error: Unexpected token position”.

For my setup, I’m using a monitor with the Raspberry Pi4 Model B plugged in via HDMI to MicroHDMI. I have it set up to SSH inside or use the GUI on the RP4 desktop itself. I am able to see the black Magic Mirror^2 screen, in which it asks me to “Please create a config file or check the existing one for errors”. My configuration file is located at ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js. There are no other .js files within my MagicMirror directory.

Further Notes: I created two static IP’s for my PI: 192.168.1.101 = eth0 & 192.168.1.102 = wlan0. After modifications, I run pm2 restart 1 to restart my MagicMirror. Also I found that nano -c [File_Path] works to find the exact line and column you’re currently on as you move throughout the code.

@olesoncrypto in the MagicMirror folder do

npm run config:check

the output will report a line number of an error

unexpected token line 45

well, look at line 44, and see if it should have a trailing comma (meaning more to follow)

repeat til no error

@sdetweil So you’re saying delete the commas above the line where it shows I have an unexpected token line?

@olesoncrypto no. add. but I see u fixed it

[OlesonCrypto]

@sdetweil Hey I just fixed it all up thanks you to! Adding commas a line above the syntax error fixed it. I was so happy to see “Your configuration file doesn’t contain syntax errors :)” lmao. You’re a life safer

[sdetweil]

@olesoncrypto see my MMM-Config module. it presents a form to fill in for config.js. no more commas!!

@sdetweil I have a new issue. Instead of seeing the original Magic Mirror^2 screen that says “add a config.js file or fix the syntax errors” now only shows a black screen. Both my mmstart.sh and magicmirror is active with my pm2. I also have downloaded chromium-browser. Do you know what might be the cause of this? I’ve downloaded all the module content inside of each module directory with npm.
