Error running elm-brunch

[michaelwa]

I'm getting the following error starting Brunch watch --server

error: Compiling of src\justCompile.elm failed. Invalid regular expression: /^src[\]?/: Unterminated character class

The regex seems to be tied settings from brunch-config.json file specifically the "elmFolder" property. When the elmFolder is set to elmFolder: "src", then the error appears as above. However when it is omitted then the error switches to.

error: Compiling of src\justCompile.elm failed. Invalid regular expression: /^null[\]?/: Unterminated character class

Yes - looks like cross platform bug. Can I get you to clone elm-brunch and the run npm test in the checkout folder? And then paste the result here.

I have pushed a possible fix to github (not npm) - can I get you try using the source version?

Thanks for the quick reply!!

Below is the test session results.

`C:\Users\Michael\Documents\src\elm-brunch [master ≡]> npm test

elm-brunch@0.4.2 test C:\Users\Michael\Documents\src\elm-brunch mocha

'mocha' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. npm ERR! Test failed. See above for more details. C:\Users\Michael\Documents\src\elm-brunch [master ≡]>`

I'm pretty much a noob here with node.js and I'm not sure what the steps are to installing from source versus npm. Also do I need to uninstall the current version first?

Ok, try it in your project instead:

Take index.js from elm-brunch git repo and replace the one in your node_modules\elm-brunch\ folder Then just run brunch again On Jan 29, 2016 3:00 PM, "michaelwa" notifications@github.com wrote:
