Found a solution. In google-auth.js change

const config = {
  auth: {
    keyFilePath: path.resolve(__dirname,     '../assets/google-client-secret.json'), // secret.json
    savedTokensPath: path.resolve(__dirname, '../assets/google-access-tokens.json'), // resources/tokens.js
  },
}

to

const config = {
    keyFilePath: path.resolve(__dirname,     '../assets/google-client-secret.json'), // secret.json
    savedTokensPath: path.resolve(__dirname, '../assets/google-access-tokens.json'), // resources/tokens.js
}

Try this:

cd ./assets
# check if you already have an access token file (google-access-tokens.json)?
ls -al 
# if YES, then try:
chmod 666 google-access-tokens.json
cd ../scripts
node google-auth.js
# if not OK, then try:
cd ..
node ./scripts/google-auth.js
# if not OK, then try to edit the script file, and remove one "dot" from the locations to: 
# "./assets/google-access-tokens.json" and try to run again from base module location.
# if not OK, IDK and we try something else

@E3V3A Thank you. I already tried a lot of those changes. Running the old script, supplying absolute paths, placing files in different folders, naming them differently, etcetera. Possibly something changed in the node module google-assistant? … I will test more later, maybe start from scratch again

@E3V3A Wow, thank you for contributing!

I installed a fresh copy using the instructions. Not all instructions are completely up-to-date at the moment but I think I found where everything is located. Keys and such now go into the assets folder and I found a google-auth.js in the scripts folder. Unfortunately when i run

node google-auth.js

it reports the following error:

/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Assistant/node_modules/google-assistant/components/auth.js:18
throw new Error(‘Missing “keyFilePath” from config (should be where your JSON file is)’);

The same error is given when running google-auth2.js

Any ideas how I should proceed?

You made some very impressive modules! Of course - no hurry - but I AM anxiously awaiting your patches as I am unable to get MMM-Assistant to work with speech commands … ;-)
