Error: Cannot find module 'config'

[ggreeve]

Hi there, playing a bit with your code since I was looking for this exact solution to send my 6-probe bbq temp the cloud

I get this one error below. do you mind helping me out here, what am I missing? Error probably caused by one of these lines in app.js

var config = require('config') var mqttConfig = config.get('mqtt')

Thanks again..

sudo npm start

cloudbbq@1.0.0 start /home/pi/blue/cloudbbq node app.js

module.js:550 throw err; ^

I've not seen this exact issue before, can you check a few things for me:

• What version of node are you running node -v
• What version of npm are you running npm -v
• Do you have a config directory in your node_modules directory?
• Do you remember if you got any errors during npm install?

Hi thanks, Ok I do not have a CONFIG folder in my node_modules directory. Can I simply copy the one from your zip to it?

Node v8.12.0 Npm v6.4.1

Btw when I comment out those lines that use the CONFIG the rest of the program functions and does read my temps over Bluetooth. So that portions works fine

Also separate mqtt tests work and reach my broker in the cloud, so mqtt looks to be ok

Hi I got it working. Performed a Npm install CONFIG

That did a trick. Thanks for pointing out the missing CONFIG folder.
