Cannot launch Driveshare gui #20

Hello,
I am trying to launch the Driveshare gui with npm start after installing the node package. However, nothing comes up. No errors or anything. What could be wrong?

Hmm, I've never used npm start. I've just used a terminal window and ran node scriptNameHere.js. Here's the test file https://github.com/keverw/diskspace.js/blob/master/test.js

@keverw Your script throws an error:

Error: Cannot find module './diskspace.js'

Is the file in the same folder as diskspace? That is just for testing, but if you use it in your own project you would do var diskspace = require('diskspace’); after it’s npm installed. Then use the functions it exports to check diskspace.

I noticed in your activity feed you were asking about somthing called driveshare storj-archived/storjshare-gui#104

If that’s what you’re having trouble starting, I’m not affiliated with that project, first I even know about it.. But anyways, they used this module I maintain called “diskspace.js”.

So are you trying to run their program, or actually program something that makes use of this module? If it’s running their program, not sure if I’d be much help as I never used driveshare.

Ah, I see. I am actually trying to run Driveshare (to earn bitcoin from
sharing storage). I didn't realize your project is totally unrelated.

Thanks for the clarification :)

Actually sharing space for Bitcoin sounds kinda cool. I wonder if you rented a VPS for $5 a month with like 20GB if you would break even and make any profit doing that.

Edit:

Checked the calculator on their site and looks like you'd make less than a 1$ for 20GB.
