Generator not found by yo

[doitopen]

Hello, On the following config on windows 10 : node v6.10.3 npm -v 4.5.0

I follow the intallation instructions, the generator is installed but yo cannot find it.
NODE_PATH id setup, I have no problem with other generators.
I noticed there is no "app" folder in the generator-angular-2-crud node module

` yo angular-2-crud Error angular-2-crud

You don’t seem to have a generator with the name “angular-2-crud” installed. But help is on the way:

You can see available generators via npm search yeoman-generator or via http://yeoman.io/generators/. Install them with npm install generator-angular-2-crud.

To see all your installed generators run yo without any arguments. Adding the --help option will also show subgenerators.

If yo cannot find the generator, run yo doctor to troubleshoot your system. `

same issue here on Linux w Node 7.10.0 and npm 4.2.0

[lukasbradley]

Same issue with Fedora 25 on npm 3.10.10

[csh0711]

Same issue in Windows. And on Mint Linux 17.3 with npm 3.10.10

Same issue for me but I have found a solution that worked for me : 1- Delete the globally installed generator : npm uninstall -g generator-angular-2-crud 2- Clone generator-angular-2-crud repo into your npm root repo (to find it : npm -g root) 3- cd generator-angular-2-crud 4- npm install 5- return to your directory where you have defined the dataModel.json file and generate the crud : yo angular-2-crud

6- Enjoy!

that did it, thanks smansri

[csh0711]

Worked for me as well, thanks!

[gorums]

I'm going to fix this as soon as possible

I added this issues in the yo project #537

[noopur-dabhi]

1- Delete the globally installed generator : npm uninstall -g generator-angular-2-crud
2- Clone generator-angular-2-crud repo into your npm root repo (to find it : npm -g root)
3- cd generator-angular-2-crud
4- npm install
5- return to your directory where you have defined the dataModel.json file and generate the crud : yo angular-2-crud

I followed above steps, and... On running "yo angular-2-crud", I'm getting "Generator.extend is not a function" error

It seems like yeoman-generator updated it's syntax somehow. Fixed the above by replacing the content of angular-2-crud/generators/app/index.js with the below. I only changed the way of subclassing, all other code is just copy-pasted.

'use strict'; var Generator = require('yeoman-generator'); var chalk = require('chalk'); var yosay = require('yosay'); var fs = require('fs'); var utils = require('../utils');

module.exports = class extends Generator{ prompting() { // Have Yeoman greet the user. this.log(yosay( 'Welcome to the ' + chalk.red('Angular 2 CRUD') + ' generator!' ));

var prompts = [{
  type: 'input',
  name: 'name',
  message: 'Your project name',
  default: this.appname
},
{
  type: 'input',
  name: 'description',
  message: 'Your project description',
},
{
  type: 'input',
  name: 'version',
  message: 'Your project version',
  default: '0.1.0'
},
{
  type: 'input',
  name: 'baseurl',
  message: 'Server API URL',
  default: 'http://localhost:3500'
},
{
  type: 'input',
  name: 'dataModel',
  message: 'Your dataModel relative path',
  default: 'dataModel.json'
}];

return this.prompt(prompts).then(function (props) {
  // To access props later use this.props.someAnswer;
  this.props = props;
}.bind(this));

}

writing() { console.log('after calling readFile');

// try { var models = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(this.props.dataModel, 'utf8'));

Thanks @augustbering for the fix. I'm still waiting for a 'yo' response about why this is happening with the angular-2-crud generator.

I'm going to use the @smansri solution to update the readme.md

[mariohmol]

Hi there!

I still have this issue =(

did clone into npm_modules global folder, install the project there gives me a lot of errors:.

> fsevents@1.1.3 install /Users/mariohmol/.npm-packages/lib/node_modules/generator-angular-2-crud/node_modules/fsevents
