DHT22 Sensor

[stefanh]

Hi Experts :-)

i’ve connected a temperature and humidity sensor DHT22 and would like to show these values.
Is it possible to build some new module for this?

Maybe it’s not necessary, i can readout the values via phyton script, but don’t know to integrate them…

Greetings from Germany,

Think it might be possible. Think it can Be useable.

First hit in Google btw.

Spit through code And learn? Or wait utill someone will have some sparetime.

@Wilco89

Thank your for great googeling :-)
I will try to integrate it myself.

Where will I need to install node-dht-sensor using it with MagicMirror?

a: ~/MagicMirror/ folder
b: ~/MagicMirror/modules/ folder
c: ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/ folder

using this command: npm install node-dht-sensor

I would like to use it in node_helper.js inside a new module.

Thanks!

@Bangee go into the directory of your new module e.g. ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/ and type npm init and follow the instructions, after that type npm install --save node-dht-sensor

@strawberry-3-141 thank you! that worked for me.
But now i’ve got this error:

@Bangee depending on your other post about this problem in a different thread I assume you have a newer node version installed as you had on your old sd card, so maybe this will help you https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/rebuild

@strawberry-3-141 I’ve tried this before, but did not work for me. I’ve also made a reboot.

Will i need to have a downgrade?

[strawberry 3.141]

@Bangee never had such an issue before, did a clean install instead of copying images on sdcard, is there a reason why you copied an old image?
