<![CDATA[Error with node fetch for calendar on fresh install]]>Hello.

After update, most of module cause some trouble from start. So, black screen…

I do a fresh install, without module, and i always have error on start :

[22.01.2022 22:41.16.390] [ERROR] WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/node-fetch/src/index.js from /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar/calendarfetcher.js not supported.
Instead change the require of index.js in /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar/calendarfetcher.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

I can search on google, but i don’t find anything to resolve that… Do you have an idea ?

MM requires 2.6.6 which is not the ES version I think they changed from v3 onwards.

MM asks for newer, but module wants older?

It comes from installing the latest version of node-fetch whereas the module uses an older version of node-fetch. The latest version is an ES module and must be import’d instead of require’d in the node_helper.

cd ~
mv MagicMirror MagicMirror.save
