In Italy we just got the official Dash button, and I've got one for testing.

I'm trying to install node-dash-button, but I'm getting a lot of errors during installation on my Cubie and also on Raspi.

In any case, I'm also trying to use with other example, like this one

But nothing happen.
I've got the Mac address from Fing, an Android app that scan the local network for any device connected, and I see an Amazon one, and I got from there the MAC addr.

But when launching that python code nothing happens, when pushing the button!!!!

Any help where I can check?

I would like to integrate then in domoticz and see what can be an usage.

Thanks
