Bower: Install not working

[Luluqz]

I've followed this https://github.com/benschwarz/sublime-bower to install sublime-bower. Bower works with window 7 Terminal but not with the command palette on ST. "Bower: Install" doesn't show any list, insteed, i got this error in the ST console :

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sublime Text 3\sublimeplugin.py", line 526, in run return self.run() File "bower.commands.install in C:\Users\Lulu\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages\Bower.sublime-package", line 22, in run File "bower.commands.install in C:\Users\Lulu\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages\Bower.sublime-package", line 26, in list_packages File "bower.commands.install in C:\Users\Lulu\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages\Bower.sublime-package", line 56, in get_registry_url File "bower.commands.install in C:\Users\Lulu\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages\Bower.sublime-package", line 44, in get_bower_config File "bower.commands.install in C:\Users\Lulu\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages\Bower.sublime-package", line 17, in get_config_path File "X/ntpath.py", line 316, in dirname File "X/ntpath.py", line 280, in split File "X/ntpath.py", line 208, in splitdrive TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

I've got the same error as you. I hope this issue gets re-solved as soon as possible.

I also followed the tutorial and I get the same error as the two posters above me. I am on windows 8.1 if that helps. Installed node.js, installed bower through the node.js console, installed msysgit, opened Sublime, installed the bower package through the package manager. Restarted Sublime.. trying to use "Bower Install" will yield the error. Am I missing something?

[melihovv]

I've got the same. How to fix it?

[benschwarz]

Damn. Someone with some windows experience got some time to look into this?

@Luluqz I'd considered closing / locking this issue on the strength of your avatar. Perhaps you want to reconsider it?

Same error on Ubuntu 14.04 too...any clues how to resolve this.

And i got the same problem, but in my case then i press < bower:install > nothing happen.

[roman-kuleshov]

Got the same error. Someone can look into this?

[benschwarz]

Sorry folks, I'm not a windows user (windows support was submitted thanks to community contributions) + I don't actually use this plugin myself, so as you can imagine: Its pretty far down my list.

Can someone help?

Try creating a project. Use Project/Save Project As ... (then actually save/create a project file). Then try bower again.

I guess the plugin needs a starting directory to download packages into.

now have error http://joxi.ru/ZIsyVP3JTJAZXYIXLEA

[roman-kuleshov]

after select package to install

[aaronmschmidt]

I had the same error. Typing out the complete name of the package in Package Control and hitting return fixed it.

@nwa-app-01 solution worked for me: Create a Project (Project/Save Project As) Restart Sublime Close the Project (Project/Close Project) Open the Project And Bower works

[afider]

@nwa-app-01 solution worked for me too

[ghost]

@nwa-app-01 solution fixed the problem

[pinturic]

I had the same problem in MacOs and for me the solution was

1) creating a folder in the project 2) add a .bowerrc file to keep the bower configuration

[benschwarz]

Ok, so I'd guess that it is failing trying to find a path, and a 'project' changes that. As I said, not a windows user and I don't use this editor any longer. Anyone able to look into it? Happy to talk you through the code…

[pinturic]

I use a mac but it was showing the same problem. Moreover after passing to sublime 3 the problem went away

@nwa-app-01 Solution Works ! Thank you mate!
