UNSOLVED MMM-AssistantMk2 and auth_and_test.js

sonicgoose

Reposting because I put this in the wrong forum the first time.

I’ll try to make a long story short:

Installed MMM-AssistantMk2 and MMM-Hotword. Added default config for both to config.js. Got nothing but a black screen. Narrowed the problem down to MMM-AssistantMk2 and grpc. So went through the troubleshooting tips to switch to grpc-js instead (same problem) and to downgrade to v1.13 of grpc. I’ve now (for the third time) created my credentials.json file and am trying to run

node auth_and_test.js

This is what shows up after a few seconds:

/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2/node_modules/google-assistant/components/auth.js:27
  const oauthClient = new OAuth2(key.client_id, key.client_secret, key.redirect_uris[0]);
                                     ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'client_id' of undefined
    at new Auth (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2/node_modules/google-assistant/components/auth.js:27:38)

    at Function.Module.runMain (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:695:10)
    at startup (internal/bootstrap/node.js:201:19)

And I’m stuck. Help?

@sonicgoose
Your credentials.json is wrong. Especially you’ve missed or failed something on making credentials on google console

sonicgoose

@Sean I don’t think so. I got it to work twice. My browser launched, I logged in, I got a code back and paste that into the prompt presented by auth_and_test.js. Twice. Now the third time, after downgrading grpc to v1.13, it won’t work and I get the above error.

@sonicgoose
Weird, because it is not related grpc. error log says your credentials.json has been corrupted or missing something.

Open your credentials.json and look into it.

{"installed":{"client_id":"377258677000-2rv97u3b2....

It should seems similar with above.
Your file might have other text instead "installed". Isn’t it?

sonicgoose

@sean My file starts with

{"web":{"client_id":"10236352...

sonicgoose

@Sean This is weird. I just downloaded my credentials again and this time got

{"installed":{"client_id":"1023635200...

I’ll try this again when I get home. No idea how it could have changed.

SUCCESS!!
