Can't Create Plugins on Windows

[retroandchill]

Report

I am unable to create plugins in Windows. Attempting to do so will fail without a folder being created.

What did you do?

Run danger plugins create <name> from either CMD or Powershell

What did you expect to happen?

A new directory with the skeleton of the danger plugin was created

What happened instead?

No folder was created and the following was printed instead

[!] using template 'https://github.com/danger/danger-plugin-template'
[!] The exception involves the following plugins:
 -  claide-plugins

Your Environment

My machine has Ruby and Danger installed using gem and Windows 11 is the OS in question.

You might need to make claide support windows, it is using the command which - something I dont think is available on windows

@retroandchill

Thank you for your report.

However the root cause is not in Danger code base. I will update claide-plugins after https://github.com/dbgrandi/claide-plugins/issues/4 is resolved.
