Error on package.json

Hi,

I'm getting this error when trying to load Gulp Tasks.

The path to the gulpfile.js is correct but package.json is located in the same location under /scaffold

Loading gulp tasks...
ERROR: Command failed: gulp --tasks-simple --cwd "c:\Sites\SITECORE\[PROJECT_ROOT]" --gulpfile "c:\Sites\SITECORE\[PROJECT_ROOT]\scaffold\gulpfile.js"

                 ^

Hi @simoneldevig

I suspect this could be an expectation that gulp has with regards to a package.json. I will do some investigation to reproduce, find out why and see if a update can be put in place.

Watch this space.

Nick.

Thx @nickdodd79 :-)

Hi @simoneldevig

Apologies for the delay. I have attempted several approaches to replicating your issue and everything works for me. Though for nested package.json files and node_modules a global gulp install is required.

I am suspecting the issue is related to the binding.open(...) call attempting to find your package.json for what ever reason. You may have to add a dummy package.json to your project root to satisfy that invocation.

Nick.

Closing due to no follow up.
