Not getting photo

[ScottChapman]

Here is my code. I've tried being specific about path to file, pausing between start/stop. Not seeing all the events get fired. It does give me the command it is going to run, which when I run in CLI I get the image I want:

var Raspicam = require('raspicam');


var camera = new Raspicam({
	mode: "photo", 
	verbose: true,
	timeout: 0,
	output: "/home/pi/Camera/picture.jpg"
});


camera.start();
console.log("about to wait...");
setTimeout(function() {
	console.log("done waiting");
	camera.stop();
}, 10000);


camera.on("read", function(err,timestamp,filename) {
	console.dir(err);
	console.dir(timestamp);
	console.log(filename);
});


camera.on("start", function() {
	console.log("Started!");
});


camera.on("exit", function() {
	console.log("Done!");
});

I'm facing the same issue. Code is same except for the path. Did you manage to resolve it?

Have you folks enabled the camera from raspi-config?

My rpi camera module is enabled. This is the output when running my script. No errors as far as I can see, but no file showing up in the folder. Any tips?

It doesn't appear to be saving, maybe the output folder isn't writable?
