Keep getting "Unexpected token" issue on run

[pmagnussen]

Hi. Hoping you guys could help me with this one.

Whenever I run "npm run sonus" I get this error:

pi@raspberrypi:~/smart-mirror $ npm run sonus

> smart-mirror@0.0.13 sonus /home/pi/smart-mirror
> node sonus.js

/home/pi/smart-mirror/node_modules/sonus/index.js:5
const {Detector, Models} = require('snowboy')
      ^

I'm running npm version 4.6.1 and Nodejs version 6.10.4. All on a Raspberry Pi 3.

Does anyone know what it could be?

I tried changing the code to const Detector = require('snowboy') const Models = require('snowboy') But now I get this error:

/home/pi/smart-mirror/node_modules/sonus/index.js:63
    models = new Models(),
             ^

Strange. This syntax should be supported by the version of node you have installed... Give this a shot instead:

const Detector = require('snowboy').Detector
const Models = require('snowboy').Models

Yeah, I ended up doing something like that. Thanks.
