Windows - slush marklogic-node <app-name> "generator issue"

rwjlewis commented 8 years ago

Due to the diffence in Windows commands for navigating directories. The install will fail, for example the error log contains this issue: These errors are returned – it is an automated process so there shouldn’t be a file missing, unless the there is a step not defined in the above directions to "cd" into the directory which would require a break-point in the script.

0 info it worked if it ends with ok 1 verbose cli [ 'C:\Program Files\nodejs\\node.exe', 1 verbose cli 'C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js', 1 verbose cli 'install' ] 2 info using npm@1.4.28 3 info using node@v0.10.36 4 verbose node symlink C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe 5 error install Couldn't read dependencies 6 error package.json ENOENT, open 'C:\Users\rlewis\Downloads\package.json' 6 error package.json This is most likely not a problem with npm itself. 6 error package.json npm can't find a package.json file in your current directory. 7 error System Windows_NT 6.1.7601 8 error command "C:\Program Files\nodejs\\node.exe" "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js" "install" 9 error cwd C:\Users\rlewis\Downloads 10 error node -v v0.10.36 11 error npm -v 1.4.28 12 error path C:\Users\rlewis\Downloads\package.json 13 error code ENOPACKAGEJSON 14 error errno 34 15 verbose exit [ 34, true ]

The below process isolates where in the steps, the issue arises: Run the generator Go to the directory where your new project will be created (the parent). Then: slush marklogic-node This will ask you several questions, with some intelligent defaults. Configure your application Go to the generated application directory: cd {app-name}

Note the slush command is what generates the below error without any break-point to cd into the {app-name}

This process works with a fresh install of Windows 7 sp1 with the following potential differences from your environment:

slush, gulp, bower, slush-marklogic-node were all installed in an Administrator command prompt
slush marklogic-node was executed in a normal command prompt
the following node-gyp (https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp) dependencies were installed: .NET framework 4.0 was installed (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17851) Windows 7 SDK was installed (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8279) Python 2.7 was installed (Python 3 is not supported by node-gyp)
Git was set to checkout line endings as-is, commit as-is
