cannot install? #7

Closed jman057 closed 7 years ago

jman057 commented 7 years ago

Hi, trying to install this however I get an error:

npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\package.json' npm WARN !invalid#1 No description npm WARN !invalid#1 No repository field. npm WARN !invalid#1 No README data npm WARN !invalid#1 No license field.

I managed to get the files in "node modules/wish", however I cannot open any oft the .js files, and attempting to run the example only produces an error:

const wish = require('wish'); wish(five() === 5); wish(thisFunctionShouldBeTrue());

error:

C:\Users\Jay\Dropbox\Websites\development ebooks\node_modules\wish\lib\wish.js:8 8 line.fileName = line.full.match(/(\/.*.js)/)[1]; ^

TypeError: Cannot read property '1' of null at createLineFromErrorObject (C:\Users\Jay\Dropbox\Websites\development eboo ks\node_modules\wish\lib\wish.js:88:52) at getExpression (C:\Users\Jay\Dropbox\Websites\development ebooks\node_modu les\wish\lib\wish.js:107:20) at handleFalseWish (C:\Users\Jay\Dropbox\Websites\development ebooks\node_mo dules\wish\lib\wish.js:126:36) at wish (C:\Users\Jay\Dropbox\Websites\development ebooks\node_modules\wish\ lib\wish.js:143:15) at Object.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

When you say "trying to install," what do you mean (specific input and output)?

It seems like you're working out of the book. Can you point to any specific pages?

What version of npm, node, and wish are you working with?

Maekchu commented 7 years ago

The first warnings are related to npm. Either you haven't initialized your node project properly, you are missing a package.json file or something else in that regard. However, the warnings have nothing to do with this specific project and is all regarding the use of npm.

Regarding the error:

line.fileName = line.full.match(/(/.*.js)/)[1]; ^ TypeError: Cannot read property '1' of null

Then it seems this error has something to do with #5 .

Not quite sure where the error is in the code. However, wish seems to work fine when executing a test on values that pass correctly, for example:

const wish = require('wish'); var five = function () { return 5; }; wish(five() === 5);

But I get this error as soon as I try to fail the test:

const wish = require('wish'); var five = function () { return 5; }; wish(five() === 6);

Edit: Probably should add, that I tried this using node v 8.4.0.

I am trying to do the first Wish example in Chapter 4. Please advise on how to fix this?

jman057 commented 7 years ago

Thanks for the replies everyone. to be honest I was able to continue with the tutorials in the book without using wish, and I have since moved on to focus on other aspects of development. Thank you for your replies, and I trust that these will benefit others with similar challenges, or me again when I next get round to testing js!

I suspect my error may have been some confusion around using npm - I still am not totally confident about where things belog in the directory structure when using the command line. I may have thought that having npm available globally meant that I didn't need the supporting files in the application folder (I now use Laravel so all this is taken care of for me).

EvanBurchard commented 7 years ago

@jman057 Sorry this didn't work for you. If you have any insights or versioning information to share, please let me know.

@Itsthatotherguy Seems like you're still having issues. IIRC, the stack trace generated for an error (which is how wish works) changed its format a ways back. I'm running wish version 5.4.2 and not getting that error. Is there a version you'd like me to try out? (npm -v wish should tell you what you're running).

Unfortunately. The book recommends 0.1.2, which I think conflicts with newer node versions. Everything works for me with wish version 5.4.2.

(EDIT, I was looking at the wrong output, I meant 1.0.0)

EvanBurchard commented 7 years ago

@Itsthatotherguy Going to close this for now, please let me know if this doesn't fix things for you.

Itsthatotherguy commented 7 years ago

@EvanBurchard I tried installing v5.4.2 from npm but I can't find that version. When I ran "npm install wish" yesterday, it installed v3.10.10 and that is the version that is not working. Could you provide some assistance on how to get v5.4.2 so that I can test it on my side?

EvanBurchard commented 7 years ago

@Itsthatotherguy Woah. Been a while since I looked at this. I think we're aiming for 1.0.0 actually. The command you want is npm list wish to find out what you're using.

Itsthatotherguy commented 7 years ago

@EvanBurchard Here is my cmd output when I ran that command:

C:\Users\Fincon02\Documents\jstraining>npm list wish

EvanBurchard commented 7 years ago

@Itsthatotherguy Something is weird here. Wish only goes to 1.0.0, so v3.10.10 is something else.

Itsthatotherguy commented 7 years ago

@EvanBurchard 

C:\Users\Fincon02\Documents\jstraining>npm wish -v
3.10.10

C:\Users\Fincon02\Documents\jstraining>

Would it be better if I just start over? If yes, please list the steps that I should follow. I followed the steps listed in the book and it led me here so maybe I am getting something wrong.

EvanBurchard commented 7 years ago 
~/projects/wish (master) npm whateveryouputheredoesnotmatterapparently -v
5.4.2
~/projects/wish (master) node -v
v7.7.1

I misunderstood that first command. That gives you the version of npm. So your npm version is old, and possibly your node version as well. I'd recommend updating both.

Itsthatotherguy commented 7 years ago

@EvanBurchard 

C:\Users\Fincon02\Documents\jstraining>npm -v
5.4.2
C:\Users\Fincon02\Documents\jstraining>node -v
v8.6.0

I updated both, as requested.

However, when I tried to test it again, I got the same error:

Are you running windows?

@EvanBurchard I am running Windows 10 Pro.

EvanBurchard commented 7 years ago

@Itsthatotherguy Can you try this?

git clone git@github.com:EvanBurchard/wish.git
cd wish
npm install
npm test

That's weird. Do you have a "clone or download" button somewhere on this page? Can you copy and paste whatever link it gives you and clone from that?

Itsthatotherguy commented 7 years ago

@EvanBurchard That worked. Followed the steps you told me to, here is my output:

@Itsthatotherguy Now we're into windows specific debugging for our debugging. I don't have a windows machine, so I can't be much use diagnosing at this point.

You're probably better off just using assert. Feel free to email me if you want advice on adapting any particular examples.

Itsthatotherguy commented 7 years ago

@EvanBurchard Great. Thanks. I emailed you.
