Hello.

Similarly this

npm install json2csv -g

and then in mongobooster

varjson2csv = require('json2csv');

I try to do

npm install request -g

var rq = require('request');

and get the error

{

"code": "MODULE_NOT_FOUND",

"message": "Cannot find module 'request'",

"stack": "script:1:10"

}

Please, help to solve this problem.

With best regards,

Dmitry.

You don't need to install npm modules globally. You can install npm modules to your user data directory.

1. Main Menu -> Help -> Open User Data Directory

2. Righ-click menu: New Terminal at Folder https://tinyurl.com/kv9b5m2

3. run: > npm i request-promise ;//or request, you have to promisify it later.

var rp = require('request-promise');
await(rp('https://www.bing.com'))

Hello,

I've installed the timespan node module in my MongoBooster user data directory, and it seems to be installed.

npm list
+-- moment@2.18.1
+-- node-fetch@1.6.3
| +-- encoding@0.1.12
| | `-- iconv-lite@0.4.17
| `-- is-stream@1.1.0
`-- timespan@2.3.0

However, when I try to use it in MongoBooster I get the following error:

{

"message" : "Cannot find module 'timespan'",

"stack" : "script:1:16",

"code" : "MODULE_NOT_FOUND"

}

Here's how I'm requiring the module:

var timespan = require('timespan');
var ts = new timespan.TimeSpan();

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jeff

There may be a problem with the node_modules path resolution.

Please open a terminal at MongoBooster user data directory, and run "npm init"

> npm init -y

try it again.

Huh, this didn't work for me. I'm trying to perform an export (from the menu) of a query to a CSV file and the import of "fs" is not working:

```

{

"message" : "Cannot find module '/Users/craig-mbp/Library/Application Support/NoSQLBooster for MongoDB/node_modules/fs'",

"stack" : "script:2:1",

"code" : "MODULE_NOT_FOUND"

}

```

Here's what's installed:

```

I did a `npm init -y` to rebuild and still get the same error and restarted nosqlbooster and still doesn't work. Any ideas how to fix this?

I noticed that there is a "fs@0.0.1-security" module in your module list. It conflicts with the nosqlbooster's built-in fs module and you have to delete it and try again.

Yup, that fixed it. Thank you!!

Main Menu -> Help -> Open User Data Directory does nothing to me, not even print errors to console.

I'm running nosqlbooster Version 5.2.5 on Linux Mint 19.2
