getrobotpw not found

[tk5011]

I conducted the steps from the setup procedure as documented here: https://github.com/iRayanKhan/homebridge-roomba2/blob/master/README.md

However there were quite some warnings in the log (the plugin was installed however and is visible in the homebridge UI).

pi@raspberrypi4:/ $ sudo npm i -g homebridge-roomba2
npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142

pi@raspberrypi4:/ $ cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules/
-bash: cd: /usr/local/lib/node_modules/: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

The folder with the getrobotpwd is not available. (I have a pi). Where can I find the file?

Does the error translate to path not found?

[tk5011]

Yes, that is correct. Folder not found. There is nothing like node or similar in the folder /usr/local/lib/. Only python stuff... Thanks

[iRayanKhan]

Do you know where your plug-ins are installed?

[tk5011]

Unfortunately now. homebridge directory seems to be in /var/lib/homebridge, but I was not able to spot the corresponding folder yet. I installed the plugin via the homepage via the plugins-tab. Also the log from homebridge does not point to any folder.

Appreciate your help!

I found the folder in the meantime in /usr/lib/node_modules/homebridge-roomba2. Executing the script getrobotpwd also worked and I got robot data blid etc. (after pressing the home button of the roomba until the sound comes up). However it is not clear to me which value to insert as Robot Password in the config. There is no such value in the robot data from the script (only ver, hostname, robotname, ip, mac, sw, sku, nc, proto, cap..., blid)

The robot data remains on the screen and an additional enter the following error message shows up:

Try running the command with sudo.

+1 to this issue. Found this error upon trying to obtain the pw.

events.js:287 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event ^

I also get the blind, just not the password.

@tk5011 did you provide the IP address as 192.168.XXX.XX? You need to discover the actual IP address of your Roomba.
