      @pepebc It may depend on what precedes that snippet (if anything). Try copy/pasting the whole file into JSHint, it may give you a better idea. Also, doesn’t fs.stat() take a path as the first argument?

      Problem with config or JavaScript? Copy/paste it into JSHint.
      Check out the detailed walkthroughs on install, config, modules, etc.

        Also did you import the fs module correctly?

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          fs is included by default in nmp.
          I do tests because I need to verify that a text file exists in the module directory when an attempt was made to create.
          I am not an expert in programming and I am trying with the functions that I find online. Always it gives me that error, although in the forums seems to work. In this environment, it gives me problems.

            It may be included by default in Node.js, but you still need to import it into your script.

              Yes, I had imported it with const fs = require ('fs');
              but I was not creating the function well in the right place. Thank you.
              It’s crazy what I want, I know. I want to connect Kalliope (modular always-on voice controlled personal assistant) - https://kalliope-project.github.io with MagicMirror. I find it a very powerful and flexible tool. The program I already manage it well separately and I have created “neurons” and “events” … etc, but it would be wonderful to interact with MagicMirror modules.
              Lights, sensors, temperature, webcam, notifications, reading email, music … etc, that I already have it integrated in Kalliope
