Support Laravel Elixir on windows #11

Closed rasodu closed 8 years ago

rasodu commented 8 years ago

Node and gulp are installed on cmd image.

But Laravel Elixir installation on docker host running on windows VM fails. This is because of 260 path limit on Windows(because of the volume). Though everything should work as aspected on Linux based machine.

It is not possible to fully support Laravel Elixir on windows VM.

One possibility is to install all node related software on windows machine itself. But this will not give us fully configurable and destroyable development environment. We will stall not be able to run phpunit test using gulp watch becuase php is not installed on windows.

Another way would be move 'node_modules' directory out from volume folder. So none of the files will be copied back to Windows and no problem with npm module installation will occur.
