Executing yo react-gen after setup returns: throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

[davidpatters0n]

I installed both:

npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-react-webpack

Then ran: yo react-gen after entering the app details I am returned:

events.js:141 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event ^ AssertionError: Trying to copy from a source that does not exist: /usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/generators/app/templates/.env at EditionInterface.exports._copySingle (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/node_modules/mem-fs-editor/lib/actions/copy.js:45:3) at EditionInterface.exports.copy (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/node_modules/mem-fs-editor/lib/actions/copy.js:23:17) at EditionInterface.module.exports as copyTpl at tplCopy (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/generators/app/index.js:7:11) at /usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/generators/app/index.js:17:5 at Array.forEach (native) at dest (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/generators/app/index.js:16:9) at module.exports.yeoman.Base.extend.prompting.writing.features.forEach as writing at Object.

It appears the .env file is missing from: /usr/local/lib/node_modules/generator-react-gen/generators/app/templates`. Also have confirmed this is the case because doing:

What would be the reason why I am missing this .env file?

Hi @davidpatters0n,

sure you are on the correct project? This does not seem like code generated by generator-react-webpack. Maybe you are using some fork that does not point to its own github repo issues correctly?

Ahaa, yes thanks. My apologies. I was running: yo react-gen and was supposed to be running: yo react-webpack
