Issue installing starterkit

mimiflynn commented 8 years ago

I am using Pattern Lab Node- Gulp Edition v1.2.4 on Mac.

Expected Behavior

When following directions from readme.md to install a starter kit, starter kit should load successfully.

Actual Behavior

Starter kit load does not install and returns an error.

Steps to Reproduce

Download a fresh copy of 1.2.4 npm install

$ npm install pattern-lab/starterkit-mustache-bootstrap --save
edition-node-gulp@1.2.4 /Users/mimiflynn/Projects/edition-node-gulp-1.2.4
└── starterkit-mustache-bootstrap@0.1.0  (git://github.com/pattern-lab/starterkit-mustache-bootstrap.git#1ab9fcfc1f66131aa4534759bd05bb4c265e07f0)

$ gulp patternlab:loadstarterkit --kit=[starterkit-mustache-bootstrap]

Loading engines...

...scanning for engines in the edition or test directory...
- mustache engine: good to go
...done loading engines.

the square brackets in the documentation are attempting to denote you should replace them and their placeholder contents, so try this again

$ gulp patternlab:loadstarterkit --kit=starterkit-mustache-bootstrap

OMG, how embarrassing.

Thanks, btw.

No worries! If it wasn't clear to you it might not be to others who are too shy to report an issue.

I've updated the wiki with a pure example to reflect this conversation https://github.com/pattern-lab/patternlab-node/wiki/Importing-Starterkits
