build/ path broken in Windows development environment

[ishu3101]

I am trying to setup up command for development. When I run npm install followed by npm run dev I get the following error message shown in the npm-debug.log file.

It looks like you have a very old version of node and NPM. Can you try updating to node >4 and npm > 3? If that doesn't help, please reopen!

I am getting this error message shown in the npm-debug.log file after upgrading node & npm.

Can you just running this?

$ ./node_modules/.bin/babel-node ./dev-env/dev.js

[ishu3101]

I'm on Windows by the way. I'm getting '.' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. when I run the command.

[jessepollak]

Is there a line number attached to that? My guess is that it has to do with relative path syntax differing between Mac and Windows.

— You are receiving this because you modified the open/close state.

There is no line number attached to that. When I run the above command on git bash on windows, I get this error message.

Did you ever resolve this build issue? Please reopen if you're still struggling with it — would love to help you get started.

[ishu3101]

No, still struggling with the setup. See my previous message above.

[jessepollak]

@ishu3101 I just pushed a fix (above) that should resolve this issue. can you pull and try building? thanks!

[ishu3101]

What do you mean by "Add command/build" in your instruction for adding the development build of the extension to your browser.

[ishu3101]

When I run npm install. I am getting this message.

npm WARN optional Skipping failed optional dependency /chokidar/fsevents:
npm WARN notsup Not compatible with your operating system or architecture: fsevents@1.0.12
npm WARN react-dom@0.14.8 requires a peer of react@^0.14.8 but none was installed.

[jessepollak]

OK, I just pushed another commit. Try pulling and npm installing again.

I mean:

1. Navigate to chrome://extensions
2. Check the 'Developer Mode' box
3. Click 'Load unpacked extension' and load the command/build directory

[ishu3101]

I still get the same message after running npm install. I also don't see the command/build directory.
