[build] gulp build command not working #5391

simoncarbajal · 2017-05-21T15:34:32Z

gulp build can't complete the 'build-assets' phase due to the following error:

GulpUglifyError: unable to minify JavaScript
Caused by: DefaultsError: `preserveComments` is not a supported option
semantic/tasks/config/tasks.js:96
          if(error.filename.match(/theme.less/)) {
                           ^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'match' of undefined

And is NOT fixed by commenting the following lines:

./tasks/config/tasks.js:148:      preserveComments : 'some'
./tasks/config/tasks.js:162:      preserveComments : false

Steps to reproduce it:

npm install semantic-ui --save
cd semantic/
gulp build

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

would also like to see this answered as i am having the same issue. ⌛️

fabulousduck · 2017-06-01T14:34:02Z

i tried to resolve this by downloading the semantic zip from the website.
although this zip does not contain everything and will still error out giving the following
This relative module was not found: *./themes/default/assets/images/loader-large.gif in ./~/css-loader?{"minimize":false,"sourceMap":false}!./semantic/dist/semantic.min.css

fabulousduck · 2017-06-01T14:49:41Z

@simoncarbajal i fixed this by completely removing semantic and reinstalling it. not sure where the cause lies. 🤷‍♂️

tarkwyn · 2017-06-22T09:50:49Z

Fix is to change filename to fileName in line 96 of semantic/tasks/config/tasks.js

e.g. if(error.fileName.match(/theme.less/)) {

j-f1 · 2017-06-22T11:38:10Z

@tarkwyn Can you make a pull request to fix this?

SamPlusPlus · 2017-07-06T15:52:07Z

I can confirm that @tarkwynl 's change worked for me. I can provide additional details if needed.

designosis · 2017-07-07T18:07:01Z

The camelCase issue didn't cause any problems, however I was unable to successfully gulp build until I commented out the two preserveComments tags in /semantic/tasks/config/tasks.js

The error (with "gulp-uglify": "^3.0.0"):

[13:56:35] Created: dist/components/site.js
[13:56:35] Plumber found unhandled error:

SamPlusPlus · 2017-07-07T18:10:09Z

@neokio I also received the perserveComments error, but I had to upgrade my version of node to the latest, to get pass that.

I will not very experienced with gulp/node so take my inputs with a grain of salt.

designosis · 2017-07-07T18:29:52Z

Interesting! Good advice in general, so I updated node from 7.7.1 to the latest (8.1.3), and reinstalled npm (npm install -g npm) just to be sure.

The above error still appears, unless I remove both perserveComments.

designosis · 2017-07-11T17:02:27Z

The error persists in 2.2.11 ... unable to successfully gulp build until I removed both preserveComments lines from /semantic/tasks/config/tasks.js.

SamPlusPlus · 2017-07-11T17:49:41Z

@neokio could be unrelated, but when I said I updated to the latest for Node Js I actually went for LTS, not current. https://nodejs.org/en/ so I went on version 6.11.1

designosis · 2017-07-11T18:46:47Z

I think I found the problem. This issue ... terinjokes/gulp-uglify#265 ... and the latest gulp-uglify release notes reveal that release v3.0.0 of gulp-uglify REMOVED the custom option preserveComments :)

vinayakkulkarni · 2017-07-12T07:56:58Z

Yep, can confirm the issue. Commenting out L148 & L162 (temporarily) solves it.

Tried with older version of Node / npm & latest version too.
It's not camelCase related or node version related

rafaelgilead · 2017-07-14T23:14:17Z

After all, what will be done in the semantic ui ? To remove the option or comment and wait for uglify downgrade ?

jlukic · 2017-07-15T00:42:15Z

I'll fix the dependencies so that we dont use this version of uglify. Sorry about this guys.

jpetitte · 2017-07-22T16:55:15Z

I'm a little late to the party, but I figure another confirmation can't hurt. Commenting out L148 & L162 worked for me as well. Thanks!

rafaelgilead · 2017-07-22T17:05:44Z

Commenting out L148 & L162. It worked for me too.

bhargavy · 2017-07-24T06:18:08Z

Commenting out L148 & L162. It worked for me too.

Madankapoor · 2017-07-28T04:48:31Z

Commenting out only worked , can't find out if issue is in gulp-uglify or semantic ui.

jlukic · 2017-07-28T14:09:14Z

Will get fix in over weekend. Thanks for patience.

cur33 · 2017-07-31T17:27:23Z

Commenting worked for me, too. Glad I wasn't the only one with this problem, since I'm new to semantic ui and gulp--and I'm on a time crunch! Thanks guys!

sergiomar73 · 2017-08-02T14:07:52Z

Hi, I found that Uglify plugin changed its options and now preserveComments is obsolete:

https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-uglify#deprecated-options-from-2x

Option           | Replacement
preserveComments | output.comments

So, just replacing in these 2 lines in semantic/tasks/config/tasks.js:

./tasks/config/tasks.js:148:      preserveComments : 'some'
./tasks/config/tasks.js:162:      preserveComments : false

with:

output: {
    comments: 'some'
}

output: {
    comments: false
}

worked for me.

kevinmwangi · 2017-08-02T15:31:47Z

@sergiomar73 Thanks this fixed it

basselAhmed · 2017-08-02T19:07:14Z

@sergiomar73 Thanks man, I can confirm this fixes it.

cluxter · 2017-08-02T21:32:41Z

@sergiomar73 I confirm it too.

kutalev · 2017-08-03T00:56:54Z

@sergiomar73 It worked. Thanks!

jlukic · 2017-08-06T16:30:31Z

A weekend late but pushing this now.

erdi · 2017-08-06T16:54:40Z

What's the timeline for releasing 2.2.12, @jlukic?

cluxter · 2017-08-06T17:52:05Z

It's kind of too bad that we have to wait until v2.2.12 is released to see this bug fixed :/
This is a blocking issue for the one who doesn't patch manually and needs to use gulp (sometimes you have to). Wouldn't a v2.2.11.1 be a better solution? Just asking.

jlukic · 2017-08-06T19:59:09Z

@cluxter dont worry, I'm releasing this later tonight. Continuing to jam on issues. Manual fix above should work in interim.

axper · 2017-08-07T11:24:18Z

Hmm, still getting this error with v2.2.12:

[15:23:13] Plumber found unhandled error:

zehmigueljr · 2017-08-07T12:41:25Z

Hi @jlukic , I tried build a test of semantic and the same problem occured. The file tasks.js
already in the new version, with your last commit. I had to apply the solution that @sergiomar73 showed.
I tried build in 2.2.11 and 2.2.12.

jlukic · 2017-08-07T15:55:13Z

Patch incoming

jlukic · 2017-08-07T16:25:11Z

And out 2.2.13

zehmigueljr · 2017-08-07T17:36:33Z

Hi, @jlukic
I have installed de last updates (2.2.13) of semantic and tried build the project.
The fix worked succefully.

Thanks a lot.

jlukic · 2017-08-07T18:40:44Z

Sorry about mistakes with the first fix.

cluxter · 2017-08-08T01:11:08Z

v2.2.13 works on my side. Thanks a lot @jlukic !

…sue with 2.2.11 (Semantic-Org/Semantic-UI#5391)

flornet · 2017-11-15T14:16:14Z

Hi, I've been having the exact same issue with 2.2.13.
To solve it, I've had to update Node.js & NPM.
It might be obvious... but it wasn't for me :)

dickmao · 2017-11-22T12:27:04Z

Yes, can confirm that default version of nodejs 4.2.6 for ubuntu 16.04 won't work. Needed to upgrade to 6.x.x. Thanks.

peppelinux · 2018-04-09T08:36:14Z

Confirmed that it's a problem related to nodejs version. Fixed with:

export NODE_VERSION="node-v8.11.1-linux-x64"
cd /opt
# LTS version
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.11.1/$NODE_VERSION.tar.xz
# decompress it
tar xvf $NODE_VERSION.tar.xz

# put it in the executables defaults environment path
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/$NODE_VERSION/bin:$PWD/node_modules/bower/bin

then use node.js as usual.
Remember also to uninstall previous node.js installations

Any idea on this?
