Issues enabling and starting my smart mirror
-
Hello Cédric I’m currently having issues starting the smart mirror when I give the command “npm start” the error signal and says this is related to npm not being able to find a file
“no such file in directory, open ’ /home/mark/package.json” what should I do I would really appreciate your response.

HI @David-0 ,
npm start
must been launched insideMagicMirror
FolderSo, I advice to try this:
cd ~/MagicMirror npm start
Explains:
cd ~/MagicMirror
: enter toMagicMirror
folder
Note:
~
symbol mean/home/<user>
in your case:/home/mark
npm start
: read instructions frompackage.json
file for launching anodejs
application (thereMagicMirror
)
Note: that why you have no
package.json
file in your personalhome
directory and naturally it can open it ! (no such file in directory, open ’ /home/mark/package.json
) -
Thanks for the response, but this command starts the normal smart mirror but not with Google assistant enabled am I supposed to use a different command for that too, I followed all the steps from this post https://youtu.be/z0SyoTldsAU
Am I supposed to do something else? -
There is no others special command
just follow all step there
eventually, past all log of the console when you start MM²

And install GoogleAssistant . If go to wiki.bugsounet.fr/home
