Dependency of glup failed #7

$ slush biojs Then the terminal complained:

npm WARN deprecated gulp-rimraf@0.1.1: Use npmjs.org/del instead, see https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/blob/master/docs/recipes/delete-files-folder.md
npm WARN optional dep failed, continuing fsevents@0.2.1

thanks for reporting :)

npm WARN optional dep failed, continuing fsevents@0.2.1

comes from watchify which uses --> chokidar. Chokidar has an optional dependency to fsevents.

fsevents is a native library for file access on Mac OS and chokidar uses it to receive file events faster on OS X. So it is okay if this optional dep fails on Linux.

For more info see their package.json and the implementation

Thanks. Do we need to modify our code to make the installer quiet?

Do you mind about this line WARN optional dep failed showing up? Honestly I don't.

Anyway the idea of slush is to make it very easy to generate a super-awesome new package with many development helpers included. So of course you are allowed to modify everything and if you want to remove sth. (e.g. watchify) in your package, feel free ;-)

Furthermore if you really don't want to see log messages, you could use

npm_config_loglevel=error npm install

or include that in a .npmrc in your project

loglevel=error

NPM also supports user and system config files.

I don't recommend to silence log messages

I don't, neither. I worry that if we face a real bug in future, such warning may produce noise for debugging.

How about writing them down in README or other documents?

+1. I created a new article in our wiki.
