Installation problems

[kokujin]

Hi there! Nice project :)

I had to do 2 thing to get this to work start properly on ubuntu

1. After cloning the gaowl repository, I had to change the permissions of all the files to my present user because some of them belonged to root.
2. npm install grunt. Grunt was missing in the dev-dependencies

[Karnith]

Thanks, but I don't know why grunt was needed when we use gulp here. Could you post an example of the error it give requiring grunt?

Thx

[kokujin]

There is a rogue reference somewhere, I have'nt had the time to track it down, even after a successful start you see this in the console:

info: Gruntfile could not be found.
info: (no grunt tasks will be run.)

What you are seeing is grunt being loaded by the sails module of the application and displaying info text to the console. Sails still requires grunt because it's deeply embedded in the sails framework, but only at the sails dependency module level which it is then automatically installed when npm downloads the sails module for the project. The GAOWL project/scaffold doesn't need grunt installed locally to run correctly because it doesn't use it. So grunt module shouldn't be installed, nor part of the package.json.

oh, well. I tried it twice, not installing grunt to satisfy Sails causes
ugly errors

What you are seeing is grunt being loaded by the sails module of the
application and displaying info text to the console. Sails still requires
grunt because it's deeply embedded in the sails framework, but only at the
module level. The GAOWL project/scaffold doesn't need grunt installed
locally to run correctly because it doesn't use it. So grunt module
shouldn't be installed, nor part of the package.json.

I'll have a look.

@kokujin you're right. I'll need to track down what is going on, cause in windows sails seems to act differently and not require grunt...

[Karnith]

The error is coming from the node_modules/sails/lib/app/configuration/defaultHooks.js which calls grunt as a hook to load.

as for the file permissions, I'll need to add chown -R <current user> /<path to project>/GAOWL/.tmp to fix it so the app can clean the .tmp dir on restart. Windows users shouldn't have an issue with the file permissions.

@kokujin , grunt error is fixed.

add

"hooks": {
      "grunt": false
  },

to your .sailsrc like

{
  "hooks": {
      "grunt": false
  },
  "generators": {
    "modules": {
        "bower": "sails-generate-bower-gulp",
        "auth": "sails-generate-auth"
    }
  }
}

I'm still working on the chown issue in linux.
