cant loaded courses from librelingo.app/dev #2620

Open jowodo opened 1 year ago

jowodo commented 1 year ago

Firstly, thanks for this amazing project!

Problem description The following courses listed at https://librelingo.app/dev/ fail to load:

They show instead: 

500
Cannot find module './bangla-from-english/courseData.json'

Why is that? How can that be resolved and avoided?

jowodo commented 1 year ago

I could somehow replicate this error in the command line for the parsig-from-english course:

I hope this helps resolving this issue. Anyway, I had a look at the course and it is only a single skill and no more maintained. Maybe it can be excluded from the dev courses as is anyway doesn't seem to work. I suggest that when somebody is willing to fix, it can be added to again.

I could somehow replicate this error in the command line for the parsig-from-english course:

  • Setting up development environment as in https://librelingo.app/docs/index.html
  • download PAL-from-EN git clone https://github.com/LibreLingo/LibreLingo-PAL-from-EN
  • link course into courses directory and export:
cd LibreLinge/courses/
ln -s ../../LibreLinge-PAL-from-EN parsig-from-english # instead of ln -s ../../LibreLingo-PAL-from-EN/course parsig-from-english
yarn exportAllCourses # ERROER: can't find course.yaml
cd parsig-from-english 
yarn exportAllCourses # ERROR: can't find package.json

regarding this, here the problem is that you need to run those commands in the root folder of the repository, without cding into /courses/ though I it's weird that you are also spelling it LibreLinge not LibreLingo :thinking: I'm not sure if this is a typo or what :thinking:

Also I think that those symbolic links should not be needed, right? I think that in the build process, at least the symbolic links should be correctly made but I'm not sure. For example Hungarian from English seems to have a working dev tools page but the course itself does not seem to be correctly deployed https://librelingo.app/course-tools-legacy/hungarian-from-spanish/

  1. yes it's a typo. I meant LibreLingo
  2. indeed the symbolic links should not be problem. I just wanted to show how I purposely managed to produce a similar error. I see now, that the code snippet which I posted was not related to the problem. But that the error message is referring to the file ./apps/web/src/courses/parsig-from-english/courseData.json

I can confirm that the parsig-from-english is compiling/exporting successfully and can be used in the browser. I guess exporting is the step when the courseData.json file is created.

I think there are 3 options why the file is not found:
