@sdetweil Oh! That’s great! Onward, then :D

I had to reinstall MM and had to go through all of this again. Rebuilding electron fixed the issue and I found out that the git command I used doesn’t work anymore. Zzz… Updating should help.

cd -/MagicMirror
git checkout modules/node_modules/node_helper/index.js

@sdetweil I tried using the json from the REST API along with MMM-json-feed, but due to the way my Firebase DB is structured, it doesn’t display the data correctly and I can’t fully utilize the formatting options offered by the module as well.

Just closing notes. I was able to fix this!

@sdetweil provided extra commands.

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install electron-rebuild
node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

That worked for me, but I was faced with a new error.

Error: Cannot find module 'node_helper_.

Fixed that by running

cd -/MagicMirror
git checkout modules/node_modules/node_helper/index.js

Thanks for the help guys!

Formatting mistake. The error I posted isn’t showing up due to some reason.

npm ERR! Could not install from “node_modules/ .bin/electron-rebuild” as it does not contain a package.json file.

Re: include npm module like firebase module into our own MM module

I’ve been trying for a while and I got the same error every single time.

WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: Failed to load gRPC binary module because it was not installed for the current system
Expected directory: electron-v3.0-linux-arm-glibc
Found: [node-v59-linux-arm-glibc]

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-hellotsuhan
npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

Tried executing this and I got this

How do I get that file?

I’m very new to this.

All it needs to do is retrieve the JSON from my Firebase Realtime database and display it. Is there anything like that out there?

Edit: I’m not too keen on developing my own module due to time limitations and the fact that I simply don’t know how. But I’m up for that if I must, but I don’t know where to begin.
