Error Deploying. Node Version?

[deckard86]

Hi,

I forked and published in heroku and I got this error:

How can I solve this? Thanks

No, it is not problem in Node version. dev-dependencies are problem.

I fixed it on master branch, can you update your repository with latest changes?

[deckard86]

Great! Thanks very much! :)

I am having the same problem, what was the solution?

[vladotesanovic]

@michaelb-01 When you cloned this repo?

[zzbennett]

@michaelb-01 I had the same issue and resolved it by adding typings to the dependencies itself, not just devDependencies.

@zzbennett Thank you a lot

NPM_CONFIG_PRODUCTION needs to be set to false for Heroku to install devDependencies

I just ran into this recently.

I added a new gulp task

gulp.task('installTypings', function() {
  let gulpTypings = require('gulp-typings');
  return gulp.src('./typings.json')
    .pipe(gulpTypings());
});

and changed my postinstall in package.json to

"postinstall": "gulp installTypings"
