crud-module generator introduces lots of errors

[jedau]

It seems that it's introducing lots of whitespaces to the generated code.

I ran:

/workspace/starterMEANProject/mean$ yo meanjs:crud-module customer
? What is the name of the module? customer
? Which client-side folders would you like your module to include? css, img, directives, filters
? Would you like to add the CRUD module links to a menu? Yes
? What is your menu identifier(Leave it empty and press ENTER for the default "topbar" menu)? topbar

   create modules/customers/tests/server/customer.server.model.tests.js
   create modules/customers/tests/server/customer.server.routes.tests.js
/workspace/starterMEANProject/mean$ grunt

Even though I entered customer as the name of the module, the generated name is customers. Is that the correct behavior?

I fixed them all one-by-one just to get grunt to execute properly.

EDIT: After all errors were fixed, all the pages were blank, even the index. Looking at the web inspector, it seems I encountered Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: MenusProvider <- Menus. I tried to change menuConfig.$inject in /modules/customers/client/config/customers.client.config.js to topbar, but it didn't do anything. I changed it back to menuService and it finally worked properly. I'm not quite sure what happened

I'm having the same problem on OSX, same output. Specifically, running yo meanjs:crud-module derp kills a previously working generated install.

nodejs version: 5.11.0
generator-meanjs version: 0.4.4
yo version: 1.7.0

[alexanderbluhm]

I also have the same problem on OSX

[jedau]

@codydaig @ilanbiala any ideas what could be causing this?

[axke]

When you created your application using yo meanjs did you select master? I may be wrong, but it seems the generator is geared towards the 0.4.x branches of MEAN.JS.

Master is 0.5.0-beta. This would explain the issue with the menus. In 0.5.0-beta, they have renamed the service to menuService. Please read through #210, as this seems to be a duplicate.

As for the question asking if the generator should name customer to customers, I believe this is the expected behavior. The generator pluralizes module names.

[jedau]

@Alexisio yeah, I'm on master. I just read through the other issue and it does indeed look similar. I didn't notice that because of the title while looking through the open issues. I'm closing this for now, and I'll continue to monitor the issue from the other one.

[alexanderbluhm]

@jedau
But the bug with these errors isn't fixed, right?
So something like this 39:121 error Unnecessary use of boolean literals in conditional expression no-unneeded-ternary
How can I prevent that?
The bug in the other thread is about another problem, isn't it?

[jedau]

@IL4Miy error Unnecessary use of boolean literals in conditional expression no-unneeded-ternary is also covered in that other issue. That's why I closed this one, so that we can all focus on that thread that was created first.

With regard to resolving that error, the way I fixed that was retool the line to look like this:

customer.isCurrentUserOwner = req.user && customer.user && customer.user._id.toString() === req.user._id.toString();

Try it out on your code. I hope that helps resolve that issue.

[alexanderbluhm]

@jedau This works for me but I also habe these 38 other errors.
Someone hast to change the files and fork this.

[jedau]

@IL4Miy yeah, I guess that's why I created an Issue, so that they would notice and fix it. I fixed all of the errors one by one, so that resolved it for me. You could either do that or just wait for the fix.

I'm waiting for the fix as well, but I've since moved past this part. It would be nice to have a fix for this issue for when I create a new CRUD module for a different project.
