add troubleshooting section to readme; reiterate installing the latest voodoospark #34

Open kevinold opened 10 years ago

kevinold commented 10 years ago

This might be just for me and my recent issue (https://github.com/rwaldron/spark-io/issues/33) but I think this section and reiteration would help others (maybe just me in a few weeks/months).

I like it!

What else can we put in there? I'm about to go radio silent for 5 hours, but dig through the issues and see what else is good fodder for this and I can land it when I get to Seattle :)

I'll keep thinking on what tripped me up and that we can add to the list.

Another idea I had was to add a "postinstall" message to remind the user to update voodoospark. I've never done it, but I think it'll work:

  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    "postinstall": "echo \"Make sure you have the latest voodoospark!\""
  },

I can send this as another PR if you like the idea.

I have the message working with a "prepublish" or "postinstall" but the placement is the same and it gets printed before the dependencies are installed so it could get lost in the noise. Ideas? screen shot 2014-07-29 at 10 17 37 am
