Build fails if we have bootstrap 3 in application

[kunalsynerzip]

I am developing a custom devtool extension which uses bootstrap 3 for UI stuff.

When I include bootstrap's css file to build a .crx for my extension, the grunt build commands never create it. If I remove .css files from the source then it compiles and create a crx.

Please help

What is the output of the console if you run the grunt task with the --debug flag?

[kunalsynerzip]

I see the following line: Task source: /home/user/path/of/the/repo/node_modules/grunt-crx/tasks/crx.js

When I press cntrl+c after almost 2 min, I got following message: Execution Time (2014-06-17 20:21:58 UTC) concurrent:dist 4.1s ▇▇▇▇ 4% uglify:dist/libs/jQuery/jquery.js 3.4s ▇▇▇ 3% usemin:html 46.9s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 42% crx:myExtensionName 56.2s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 50%

Do you have the same problem by running just grunt crx:myExtensionName?

[kunalsynerzip]

Yes, I do get the same result. Please find the o/p below.

grunt crx:myExtensionName Running "crx:myExtensionName" (crx) task ^C Execution Time (2014-06-18 09:38:16 UTC) crx:myExtensionName 132.1s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 100%

Okay so I understand well, the compilation just hangs because some files are missing, right?

Could you run the same task using the --verbose flag so we could see what is the long running operation?

If it is not obvious I'll ask you to share a (private) gist with some code in order to let me reproduce the problem. Thanks very much :-)

Hi,

Any update over the issue, did you able to replicate it? If I can be of any help please do let me know.

Thanks in advance.

[thom4parisot]

Well @kunalsynerzip no I have not been able to act on it, there is not enough information in the trace, and I do not have any knowledge of the code you try to package so I am blind.

Please provide a (private) gist which would help me to reproduce the problem.

Thanks :-)

Hi @kunalsynerzip and @oncletom. I've bumped into the same issue although I'm not using bootstrap. The bug I found is on the crx module's side. I created an issue here: https://github.com/jed/crx/issues/18. Basically, if you're using crx version > 0.4.1 and latest nodejs 0.10.29, you won't be able to create a "*.crx" archive. In that case, try to modify "crx.js" in the crx module's "src" folder and see if that helps.

[kunalsynerzip]

Hi @yuryoparin , Thanks for your insight over the issue. I have resolved the issue by re-installing the nodejs and respective grunt packages. Although, it was all together new system as my laptop was crashed and need to switch to new one.

[thom4parisot]

OK so do we agree to close that issue then? Unless something can be done here to prevent such an error.
