Code:

var five = require("johnny-five");
var Edison = require("edison-io");
var board = new five.Board({ io: new Edison() });

board.on("ready", function() {
  var led = new five.Led(13);
  led.blink();
});

Thanks!

Here's one thing I need to know and another thing you can try:

1. Run this and tell me what the result is: node -e 'console.log(require("mraa").getVersion());'
2. Run:

echo "src mraa-upm http://iotdk.intel.com/repos/1.1/intelgalactic" > /etc/opkg/mraa-upm.conf;
opkg update;
opkg install libmraa0;

... and then try your script again.

mraa version: v0.5.2-1-gfdb11d9 mraa update output: Package libmraa0 (0.5.2.1) installed in root is up to date.

Same error after update. :(

[rwaldron]

The first part is great. The second is a bummer. Ok next question (sorry I forgot ask this the first time): Are you using the Edison + Arduino expansion board or Edison + Mini-Breakout?

[andrewfaria]

I have both, but started with the expansion board.

[rwaldron]

Ok, good. I have both as well. I'm going to hook up the Edison + Arduino Expansion and try to reproduce. I will post back as soon as I know more.

[andrewfaria]

I also flashed this one with the latest image. I'll try the mini while you try the big boy. ;)

[andrewfaria]

Works like a charm on the mini (before firmware upgrade).

[andrewfaria]

Failed on the mini after I updated libmraa. :(

[rwaldron]

Can you paste the error?

[andrewfaria]

I've confirmed the mraa javascript lib (by itself) is working.

Here's the error from johnny.js:

johnny.js

var five = require("johnny-five");
var Edison = require("edison-io");
var board = new five.Board({
  io: new Edison()
});

board.on("ready", function() {
  var led = new five.Led(13);
  led.blink();
});

[rwaldron]

This is strange, I just copied your example exactly as shown and it worked as expected.

So try this:

• If Edison-IO isn't 0.4.0, update it.
• If Johnny-Five isn't 0.8.22, update it. (I just pushed this out, but the change shouldn't affect your issue since you're explicitly providing an IO instance)

[andrewfaria]

The update for Johnny-Five worked! :) Thank you for the super-sonic responses.

[rwaldron]

Looks like I need to revisit the board detection vs. explicitly defined IO instance creation. Thanks for the report and for your patience in working through it :)
