Current behavior

Upon following the instructions in the README.md, errors occur on the ng build core step. The error is:

Error: Project 'core' could not be found in workspace.    at Workspace.getProject (/home/crazycolorz5/Documents/daffodil-test/node_modules/@angular-devkit/core/src/workspace/workspace.js:83:19)

Expected behavior

A build is successful and I am able to run a small demo.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

Follow the instructions in the README.md

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

Make setup easier.

Environment

I installed npm from the Arch Linux repos, and did sudo npm install -g @angular/cli followed by ng new daffodil-test. Other than that I followed the instructions in the README.md.


Daffodil version: X.Y.Z


For Tooling issues:
- Node version: 10.4.1 
- Platform:  Antergos (Distribution of Arch Linux)

The instruction to add to the default AppModule is slightly confusing. I am assuming that is referring to the file ./app/app.module.ts?

damienwebdev commented 6 years ago

@Crazycolorz5 To your question about AppModule, Yep.

There's two things happening:

We're working on getting schematics which will make project installation much easier. Currently, we're still in a super-alpha phase of development, but thanks for trying to get it set up.
Currently the published npm module is super out of date. We're waiting to publish a release until we get out of super-alpha.

I'm going to leave this issue open until we've hit that point.

griest024 commented 3 years ago

Is this still relevant? Are we going to write some Angular schematics?

damienwebdev commented 3 years ago

@griest024 I think so. The original issue here is more related to an attempt to use the project in the first place -- which is still a less than stellar process from a docs and ergonomics perspective. Schematics would make it easier, but I don't know if we're ready to commit to creating schematics yet while the APIs are still considered unstable.

I've left this issue open for a while as a goal to remind myself of the early days where we can target a real "new" user, @Crazycolorz5 attempt to try the framework for the very first time.
