@Nneuland ok, fun stuff…

the module is so old that the development dependencies no longer exist…

so

edit the package.json

and change this

  "devDependencies": {

to this.

  "devDependencies1": {

the rerun npm install

another stupid thing, npm gives you the option to NOT install the dev stuff. --omit=dev, BUT it still checks them and fails if they don’t work…

so, we have to force them to not exist…

@sdetweil
thanks Sam. after adjusting the devDependencies in package.json then running npm install seemed to correct the install.

I have auto start mirror enabled when making adjustments to config file. However after adding the config info for this module, the mirror wont start. maybe too old of a module…any suggestions on a better image viewer module?
