Installation error

[sa9]

Hello,

I downloaded the zip file (https://s3.amazonaws.com/treehouse-project-downloads/Angular2017/photo_blog.zip) and ran npm install but it shows the following error:

""" fsevents@1.1.1 install /temp/photo_blog/node_modules/fsevents

Did you try npm install --update-binary or npm install --build-from-source

[chalkers]

Are you still having the issue @sa9?

I'm having same issue. npm install --build-from-source or npm install --update-binary did not help

I have changed the code in config/common.config.js to this, which appears to have fixed the issue. It appears the spread operator wasn't working for me.

function root(pathParts) {
  if (typeof pathParts === 'string') {
    pathParts = pathParts.split('/');
  }
  var arr = [ROOT].concat(pathParts);
  return path.join.apply(path, arr);
}

Ahhh what version of node are you using?

I am having similar issues, I keep getting these errors when trying to run 'npm install'. I tried above solutions with no success.

[mkempinsky]

Hmm I was able to get it working by starting from scratch, not sure what the issue was. I also updated my version of node, maybe that was it?

Updating node to v6.11 fixed it.

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 and I think there is some issue with apt-get and node which is why I had the older version.

node version: v4.2.6

same issue here: ` /config/common.config.js:13 return path.join.apply(path, [ROOT, ...pathParts]); ^^^
