如何在顶针中安装npm

Question

I try to install thimble following instructions here . I successfully installed Bramble, but when I try to install npm in thimble, this error is showed:

C:\Users\Askar\Documents\GitHub> cd .\thimble.webmaker.org
C:\Users\Askar\Documents\GitHub\thimble.webmaker.org [bramble +1 ~0 -0 !]> npm install
|
> thimble@2.0.0 postinstall C:\Users\Askar\Documents\GitHub\thimble.webmaker.org

> bower install && node_modules/.bin/grunt requirejs:dist

'node_modules' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

How can I get through this error?

Answer 1

There's an issue with the postInstall scripts fail (at least on Windows) because the first command makes the script navigate to the folder where the bower command is run (cmd runs all the subsequential commands with the same path?). While that's being fixed, you run the commands yourself

npm install //this will fail
"node_modules/.bin/bower" install
"node_modules/.bin/grunt" requirejs:dist

or if you have installed bower and grunt globally ( npm install -g bower grunt-cli ), you can just do

bower install
grunt install

edit: this has now been fixed in the latest master
