npm run install-cli error

[arosesiejdev]

I am following the documentation instructions. I have cloned this repo, navigated to the widget-builder directory and can confirm I am using Node version 14.0.0 and NPM 16.4.

Upon trying to run the command below npm run install-cli

I get the following error in the console

this happened to me to i am guessing u are on windows (and sometime they forget that not everyone is on a mac) this is what i did

add this to the scripts section in the package.json

    "preinstall-cli-win": "npm install",
    "install-cli-win": "npm run build && npm install -g",

and then run:

npm run install-cli-win

hey @arosesiejdev I was running into the same issue on Windows - I followed what @pieterdnz suggested and got it to work. Just wanted to make sure that when you are adding the lines of code that Pieter posted, you're adding it in the package.json file in the widget-builder directory, not the website root package.json file. Hope this helps!

[GoodNightBuddy]

What worked for me was changing the script like this: "install-cli": "npm install && npm run build && npm install -g"
