Modernizr (requirejs?) windows bug

[dmzkrsk]

I use modernizr 3.0.0-alpha in my gulp task (via gulp-modernizr) and it fails with error

Error: Tried loading "src/generate.js" at src/generate.js then tried node's require("src/generate.js") and it failed with error: Error: Cannot find module 'src/generate.js'

This line causes an error:

var generate = requirejs(__dirname + '/../src/generate.js');

I checked, that the path exists.

The line before

var generateBanner = requirejs(__dirname + '/generate-banner.js');

has no problem

I reproduced this bug on clean install with

npm install --save-dev gulp gulp-modernizr

and gulpfile.js:

var gulp       = require('gulp');
var modernizr  = require('gulp-modernizr');

gulp.task('default', function() {
    return gulp.src('*.js')
        .pipe(modernizr())
});

> grunt

I use Win8.1 x64 node==0.10.28

I will check it out as soon as I can get a windows machine, in the mean time could you try changing it to

var generate = requirejs('generate.js');

[dmzkrsk]

Didn't help. I also tracked down the issue in requirejs code, posted on their issue tracker requirejs/r.js#779

[dmzkrsk]

A hackish solution that worked

var generate = requirejs(__dirname.replace(/\\/g, '/') + '/../src/generate.js');

[patrickkettner]

sorry, I meant to try

var generate = requirejs('generate');

src is the default path, and it should already be registered. I believe adding the .js extension makes it look for it in file mode, rather than by name

[dmzkrsk]

Yep, that worked

[patrickkettner]

strangly, I just tried running on a windows 7 machine, and it worked without any modifications.

[patrickkettner]

great, I will make that change momentarily

I am still getting this problem with gulp-modernizr. Is that because the gulp plugin isn't using the latest version with the fix committed above?

[patrickkettner]

yep. someone else randomly registered the package, before it was supposed to be public. its prerelease software, and so we are not version bumping on commits like we would otherwise. you will need to manually override it with master if you need to use it
