In the section of "Identify Jablotron services and devices" you are guiding to run this command:

cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-jablotron node config-helper.js username password

But my homebridge-jablotron is stored elswhere:

Node.js Version: v18.13.0 Node.js Path: /opt/homebridge/bin/node Plugin Path: /var/lib/homebridge/node_modules/homebridge-jablotron

Thanks for your issue! What do you propose I should do? There are many ways to install Homebridge and plugins, mine is just an example.

Up to you, I am a newbie to this, so I was looking for straightforward manual. My installation was using the home-bridge raspberry pi default image, so this was the default path. Maybe mention this path as an alternative where to find the right folder with the file. Anyway, thanks for your plugin, really appreciated.

@spookercz I have the manual change on my todo list since I was reinstalling using raspbian too. Glad you figured out where the plugin location sits with raspbian!

Thanks for the feedback both. I actually prefer Docker and have been running HomeBridge in Docker for years now. I should probably make that the default in the README as its 10x simpler than the current implementation.
