Config.fs

[scoller]

I have recently downloaded the magicmirror project and started to edit the config.js sample file. After i wrote in my information such as, weather, calendar, and compliments I tried to re start the project. The project started with still a notice saying edit you config file and I cant figure out where this problem comes from. A good thing to know is that the config.js file was the sample file so I saved it with out the sample. I have also run the code through the jshint and it says alot of things that idon’t understand :). PLEASE can someone help me

Well for that we’d need to know what jshint says
Can you please post your config.js here (WITHOUT sensitive data please)

And for the next time:
In the magicmirror directory you can put in

npm run config:check

and it will also give you the errors in the config.
You can then look up the lines using e.g.

sudo nano -c config/config.js

which will add the columns to nano

Thank you very much here is my config:

@scoller said in Config.fs:

locationID: “2726470”

comma missed.

99% of configuration failure was due to this mistake.

[scoller]

@sean thank you

[scoller]

@sean how do i know where the comma should be? I know im stupid

@sean said in Config.fs:

comma missed.

A classic!

@scoller
In {} (object) and [] (array), there could be several items. Each item should be separated by comma,. Only last item could omit ,.
By example

someObject: {
  someProperty: someValue ,
  anotherProperty: anotherValue ,
  lastProperty: lastValue
}, //< - this object also could be an element of other list
someArray: [
  someElement, 
  otherElement, 
  lastElement //< - you can omit comma here.
] // < - You can omit last comma of list.

[scoller]

@sean so you mean like {nothing,nothing}?

[Sean]

@scoller right.
