Running `api-console build` failed

[lanmolsz]

Running api-console build helloworld.raml failed， Whether it's local files or web resources.

#helloworld.raml
#%RAML 1.0
title: Hello world # required title

/greeting: # optional resource
  get: # HTTP method declaration
    responses: # declare a response
      200: # HTTP status code
        body: # declare content of response
          application/json: # media type
            # structural definition of a response (schema or type)
            type: object
            properties:
              message: string
            example: # example how a response looks like
              message: "Hello world"

I got the error message:

  Building the API console. This may take a moment.

Just for information, it's related to #18 and #21.

[lanmolsz]

@julien-lafont I downloaded the source code to my machine and ran the build command, though I get some error messages but I can build it successfully.

@jarrodek I updated the latest version, the previous error was resolved. But got a new error(running api-console build xxx ):

info: Done.

@lanmolsz it looks like vinyl library used by the Polymer build receives a null file. However, I can't reproduce this issue. Is the build fails (no build directory with console's sources)? What is node version?

[ericwood73]

I got the same error. I'm running api-console in a docker container based on node:6

[ericwood73]

It appears you can work around this if you have an index.html as api-console generate-json is working (at least for me).

[julien-lafont]

I've the same issue with the "Still working". I'll open a new issue for that

[julien-lafont]

Finally, an rm -Rf node_modules has solved the problem for me.
