brand new app:

$ ember g route open-bar version: 2.3.0 installing route create app/routes/open-bar.coffee create app/templates/open-bar.hbs ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/ibroadfo/scratchy/bourbon/app/router.coffee'

Hi! Sorry about that.

This is not unexpected, but it's not great. Let's brainstorm some solutions!

What would be the expected behavior for you? Some options I can think of:

The first two are absolutely the easiest to get done. The last one is something that has been discussed in an issue here before, but would be a pretty big undertaking. Any kind of prompting would ideally have some kind of way to permanently ignore the warning, and I don't think we have a good system for that.

Any thoughts on these ideas, or maybe some I didn't think of?

Thanks!

I think modifying existing files sounds right to me; they'll always have a router.js probably so that's simplest and least disruptive.

Converting files to coffeescript sounds like a separate task yeah. On Tue, 1 Mar 2016 at 12:23, Kim Røen notifications@github.com wrote:

  • Prompt the user to create the missing file
  • Fall back to modifying router.js instead if router.coffee can't be found
  • The same as above, but alert the user about it somehow
  • Ask the user if they want to convert the router written in JavaScript to CoffeeScript and do that for them.
