<![CDATA[Has anyone been able to get MMM-PetFinder to work?]]>Has anyone been able to get MMM-PetFinder to work recently? I’m working on a gift for someone but it looks like the PetFinder API has changed since the last module update. Going through the documentation and I can’t get past the Token Request part. Has anyone else had any luck with this?

this just adds to the complexity of support

Do you recommend updating npm?

Since I prefer to have a somewhat up-to-date system, I make npm updates when I notice them. So far I haven’t had any problems with it.

npm install request

in the module folder of the module missing it. not in the users hone folder

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PetFinder

also ignore the audit info, as there is more damage done trying audit fix

Ideally you want to be in the module folder that requires request, i…e cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PetFinder/. Once in the folder you want to then install request , npm i request. You can ignore the funding stuff.

I am using a new Pi 5 and am installing MagicMirror using sdetweil’s script.

The only issues I see are related to Request. When I install it I get these issues below. But when searching on them I couldn’t find any solutions. Are these issues normal? Or is there anything else I’m missing?

I’ll try again. Thank you for checking.

I entered it and the module works :-) I didn’t used the secret key.

I use the mentioned fork and installed request manually.

And going through the js files, everything looks like it should work fine. I think the issue might be with the API key/secret Petfinder game me, I can’t even get it to return token for me when testing in the terminal.

The module needs request. Did you installed it via npm install request?
