Alexyak/motiondetector... how to?

Hello! I guess waht module is doing it tells to other modules (via sensocketnotification method) kind of “hey I detected motion”. But first of all, after launching npm start keep looking at the console and check for module errors.

Ok, so what is npm and what’s the console? Sorry!
-
I’ve been reading lots of other modules and they all have instructions that say to use the " npm install" command… Do I need to do that for this mod?
I’m sorry but there were NO instructions with this mod, and I’m NOT a technical person.

@Centurion I haven’t used that module though. But for what purposes do you wanna use motion sensor - just to trigger screen on/off in case human body detected? If so check out PIR-motion sensor from 3rd party modules on github.
I guess these module is still under development.
P.S: In RPi terminal - is your console (you opening Terminal (black window) and in order to launch MagicMirror software you type into Terminal - “npm start”) -
@Sultan91 Thanks, I ordered those parts on Amazon too since I haven’t gotten much response here.
Really hope that one’s easier to figure out.
I launch MM by typing “pm2 start mm”. How do people watch the console after they launch it? Someone said to check the logs…?

@Centurion To watch cromium console hit crt+shift+I, to check Terminal just push alt+Tab
