Wow, thanks for these replies everyone.

Blows my mind how it was just basically missing just a few “small,” to me, pieces.

Hard to pick those out, need to step my game up and hit up CodeAcademy.

JSHint is perfect! That will help me out a TON!

And @RandomNoise, thank you for that idea, going to make it MUCH easier to browse and modify files that way!

You guys rock thanks, what a great community

Hello, first off I am a hardware guy, coding is not something I regularly use, and I’m slowly slogging through this, it is intimidating.

I am trying to add a Camera module with voice control to my Magic Mirror (RPi3), from https://github.com/alexyak/camera

Here is what I have for a config file so far, but I am getting the error:

“If you get this message while your config file is already created, your config file probably contains an error.”

Here is my config.js contents:

/* Magic Mirror Config Sample

var config = {
	address: "localhost", // Address to listen on, can be:
	                      // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
	                      // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
	                      // - "", "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
	                      // Default, when address config is left out, is "localhost"

	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
	                                                       // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :

I had a difficult time editing this natively on the Pi, have copied the config.js files to a Windows machine and using NotePad++ to edit the file, the lines lining the code up help me immensely. Wish there was an easier workflow for me to use?
