MMM-Canvas and MMM-Stocks not working

[sdetweil]

@gabe21 after you do the npm init

then u need to add the missing library

request
valid-url
or whatever

npm install XXX

where XXX is one of the above, as needed by the messages shown in the MM startup messages

@sdetweil Sorry I’m pretty new to the raspberry-where would I get the missing library from?

@gabe21 said in MMM-Canvas and MMM-Stocks not working:

where would I get the missing library from?

the messages output by MM starting up

you either did

npm start
and it spews out messages

or you used pm2
and it captures the messages
pm2 logs --lines=??? (default 15) will show the messages

you are looking for

cannot find module xxx

@sdetweil

code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: [
    '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Canvas/node_helper.js',
    '/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/app.js',
    '/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/electron.js',
    '/code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
      requireStack: [
        '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Canvas/node_helper.js',
        '/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/app.js',
        '/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/electron.js',
        '/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/resources/default_app.asar/main.js',
  

So

npm install /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Canvas/node_helper.js

?

@gabe21 no… up further in the messages

before

code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: [

[Gabe21]

@sdetweil Sorry, I’m a bit confused. Wouldn’t it just be npm install MMM-Canvas then? Since canvas is the module that it can’t find…

Sorry again

[sdetweil]

@gabe21

no… IN the MMM-Canvas folder

it is

npm install request
or
npm install valid-url
or
npm install ???

whatever other lib might be missing…

u have to read the messages to get the name of the missing thing

from someone else’s same problem
