Not able to install. #12

I followed the instructions to install and I didn't get any error, but yeoman is not able to recognize the generator after it is installed. It does work with other generators.

Oh dear! I was having this in testing and assumed it was something weird with my npm link setup. Just tried a global install again and had the issue you were describing.

So it turns out that most of the files aren't getting published to npm

mkdir tight
cd tight
npm install generator-tight
cd node_modules/generator-tight
ls
node_modules  package.json  README.md #missing lib/ and generators/ and a lot of other stuff

Haven't worked out why just yet... as this doesn't have a .npmignore file.

generator-generator sets the files attribute for package.json to just the app directory - this project has changed from the default structure! Just had to add generators and lib to that array and now everything is working.

@andersonamuller try npm update -g generator-tight and then yo tight, it should work now!

Thank you, it's working.
