Can’t create nod_modules directory when installing awesome-alexa
-
I follow the installation commands and after running the
npm install - - only=prod
It does not create then node_modules directory so I get a non such directory when I enter the next command.
I have tried the “npm update” and the “ npm init” commands but still no luck.
Any advice?

@tyboderek did u change to the module folder after the git clone
I turned all the wiki steps into a short script a couple years ago
see
https://www.dropbox.com/s/omrx3vztjp738hf/do-install.sh?dl=0download, make executable
-
Yes I did. For some reason it is not creating the node_modules directory so I get an error trying to execute the next command.
-
@tyboderek there are errors on many of the commands.
run my scropt

@sdetweil Ran your script and was not able to execute the run the next run config command to enter the alexa AS client ID info. Even went back and deleted the complete MMM-awesome-alexa directory and tried again with same result. I get an early warning that my package-lock.json was created with an old version of npm and it had to retrieve info from the registry. Warnings and errors start from there.
I am fairly new at this but had success installing the google photos module.
Would really like to get this alexa module installed but am at a loss.

@tyboderek did u install mm using sudo?
there should be no reason for this problem
erase the module folder again and run the script like this
bash -x do-install.sh &>somefile.txt
and send me somefile.txt via email
same userid as here at gmail
