Error spawning npx during setup

[HoldYourWaffle]

I'm getting errors when using the setup commands. It looks like the npx command can't be found, which is weird since I used it to run the setup commands.

When running npx isomor:

? Enter the name of your project: tlo
? Select which library you want to use? Vue
events.js:288
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: spawn npx ENOENT

  errno: 'ENOENT',

  syscall: 'spawn npx',

  spawnargs: [ 'isomor-vue-app', '*appname*' ]
}

When running npx isomor-vue-app:

• info Setup create-vue-app with isomor
• info Install VueJs in *folder*
• info Wait a little bit... we are loading Vue
events.js:288
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

System details OS: Windows 10 Node: v12.16.1 npm/npx: v6.14.4 which npx returns C:\Program Files\nodejs\npx (which is in my PATH)

Thank for reporting the issue. I just try on my machine and also having some issue with isomor installer. I will try to fix this asap.

But using isomor-vue-app work for me on ubuntu: npx isomor-vue-app app-name By the way, even if it should not be related, do you have yarn installed? I never tested the installer on windows since I don't have, I will try to debug with some github workflow https://github.com/apiel/isomor/actions

Edit I was able to reproduce your error: https://github.com/apiel/isomor/runs/562586118?check_suite_focus=true

Seem to be fixed in https://github.com/apiel/isomor/runs/562603508?check_suite_focus=true

Right now, only npx isomor-vue-app tlo is working, I will keep fixinf the rest.

By the way, even if it should not be related, do you have yarn installed?

Apparently I do, v1.22.4, although I never use it.

Right now, only npx isomor-vue-app tlo is working, I will keep fixinf the rest.

Great, thank you! I'll be sure to check it out tomorrow.

Ok now everything should be fine, fixed in https://github.com/apiel/isomor/commit/bc274353b34d22439b758786ce9d0b6a4b8bc667

In case you still have problems, please re-open an issue. I will close this one.

Thanks again for reporting ;-)

Thank you so much for the quick fix!

The installer is able to do the npx-buisiness now, but right at the end I'm encountering another error:

It looks like the final cd command gets passed an path that's joinedlikethis instead of joined/like/this.

Also, little side note: perhaps it'd be good to change the color of the "running hooks" and "generating" messages at the top to something other than red, since red usually means something went wrong.

[apiel]

Right, I get the same in the CI test. I will fix this tomorrow. Thx ;-)

[apiel]

Ok, I fixed the last issue. From the CI, it seem that everything goes well. Please let me know it you still encounter problems.

Thank you
