ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5551

I get the following error when trying to install the flic plugin on Homebridge:

11/13/2020, 8:18:38 AM [Flic] Controller [localhost:5551] - Error: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5551
    at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:1145:16) {
  errno: 'ECONNREFUSED',
  code: 'ECONNREFUSED',
  syscall: 'connect',
  address: '127.0.0.1',
  port: 5551
}
11/13/2020, 8:18:38 AM [Flic] Controller [localhost:5551] - Disconnected

w/ default config:

{
    "platform": "Flic"
}

I have Flic 2 with the hub. (up to date)

Are you running flicd on localhost? You should see something in the flicd logs like this when home bridge restarts:

Successfully bound HCI socket Flic server is now up and running! Initialization of Bluetooth controller done! Accepted new client

There are docker images for flicd that make it easy to run on e.g. Raspberry Pi
