MMM-gtasks errors: Error while trying to retrieve access token

  • E

    Re: MMM-gtasks - Google tasks for your mirror

    Problem loading tasks.
Try running the mirror with node serveronly for extra info
Follow the guide in the readme.md
Have you downloaded your 'client_sectet.json'?
Have you ran initialy with node serveronly and followed the link provided?

    I think my problems relates to my client_secret.json. In the installation guide it says “Download your client_secret.json file by following the guide linked below” except I couldn’t find any guide so just winged it. I assume what I did was incorrect as this is what I got:

    Ready to go! Please point your browser to: http://localhost:8080
Whoops! There was an uncaught exception...
TypeError: Cannot read property 'client_secret' of undefined
    at authorize (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-gtasks/GoogleTasks.js:34:51)
    at processClientSecrets (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-gtasks/GoogleTasks.js:112:19)
    at FSReqWrap.readFileAfterClose [as oncomplete] (fs.js:447:3)

    UPDATE:

    This what I get now:

    Error while trying to retrieve access token { Error: invalid_grant
    at Request._callback (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-gtasks/node_modules/google-auth-library/lib/transporters.js:81:15)

    at emitNone (events.js:91:20) code: 400 }
    Token stored to ./modules/MMM-gtasks/gtasks_token.json

    Now, the screen appears but no error from my Tasks, just says Loading and seems stalled.

    Any help gratefully received. Assume you are explaining to Homer Simpson 🙂

    Hey @Esinem,

    In GoogleTasks.js:100 it has the following URL: https://developers.google.com/google-apps/tasks/quickstart/nodejs#step_1_turn_on_the_api_name

    Recommend you follow Step 1, that should yield your client_secret.json.

    Let us know how you fare.

    @ninjabreadman Thanks a ton! Unfortunately, the instructions were referred to but not included in the installation instructions as far as I could see.

    @ninjabreadman Hmm, unfortunately, no change 😞 I ran node serveronly but I couldn’t see any errors. Debug is true in config.js
