Trouble setting up appdaemon for mintapi

Configuration

Trying to setup mint-scraper-for-homeassistant but getting an error when it attempts to initialize. Hoping to get some help. This is my first appdaemon.

I made a small bit of progress. I found where class was mislabled in the mint_scraper file. I’m still getting some errors and now and additional error decoding MQTT messages.

Finally figured it out.

The files that auto downloaded from github must have been outdated. I manually copy and pasted the code from github into the files. Then moved the files out of the folder they were auto created in and put them directly into the apps folder. I also had to change the module in apps.yaml to be mint_scraper_app
