电子锻造：缺少一些依赖项

Question

Using: Windows 10, NMP 6.4.1, Node v10.13.0, GIT 2.8.4

A simple app to show IMDB records: https://ide.c9.io/learnwithcolt/webdevbootcamp folder APIS / movie_search_app

Dowloaded to run locally on Windows. It runs ok.

When I run:

electron-forge init my-new-app

√ Checking your system
It looks like you are missing some dependencies you need to get Electron running.
Make sure you have git installed and Node.js version 6.0.0+

package.json:

    {
  "name": "imdb",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "app.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "ejs": "^2.6.1",
    "express": "^4.16.4",
    "request": "^2.88.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "electron": "^3.0.8"
  }
}

The same happens with other proyects. CMD is running as Administrator.

The same happens with other proyects

Just with electron-forge or other CLI tools too? My guess is this is a path issue- electron forge can't find your Node/Git installations.

You can try npx electron-forge init my-new-app but that's a long shot.

Also, make sure you're using the correct version of Electron forge. There's a new one that's kinda broken right now.

The master branch is a rewrite of Electron Forge that will eventually be the 6.x series. If you are looking for the 5.x series (the version currently published to NPM), please view the 5.x branch.
