yoke create-app is not working on windows

[plequang]

Hi,

The command

yokei create-app 

is not working on windows.

It fails when running spawn('npm', ['install'])
Actually this is because of this node.js issue : nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#2318
spawn does not find npm.cmd on windows.
The same problem occurs when running bower.

Unfortunately, I don't have the impression that this is about to be solved in node.

Personnally, I've modified yoke-cli locally to run npm.cmd and bower.cmd so that it works.

Any details on how you accomplished this, I'm having the same problem

Hi, the latest version of yoke-cli on npm includes a windows specific patch to address the nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#2318 issue. It's based on the solution used in the spawn-cmd module. Please npm update -g yoke-cli and give it a shot. Thanks.

Hi David,

Just tested create-app with yoke-cli 1.0.5 and it works on windows now.
So I'm closing this issue.
Thanks

Ok, my problem was unrelated to the previous issue. It seems that I only have the problem when trying to run 'yoke create-app' on a Windows 8 PC, with a Microsoft Live account instead of a local account. I created a new local profile, and boom everything seemed to work fine.

That's strange. I'm also using a windows 8 PC, signed in with a microsoft account, and yoke create-app is working for me,

What kind of error do you get ?
