Problem with building jerryscript on mbed os 5

I try the tutorial below to build jerryscript to an mbed os 5 target.
https://developer.mbed.org/blog/entry/Using-mbed-libraries-with-JerryScript/

In the Setting up section of the tutorial, you can see:

<------------------------
Setting up

The following instructions guide you through the process of setting up an environment where you can run JavaScript on mbed OS:

Open a terminal and navigate to the folder where you cloned the JerryScript repository.
Run cd targets / mbedos5.
Run make getlibs - this will pull in mbed OS and all related repositories.
Run pip install -r ./tools/requirements.txt - this will install Python modules required by the build scripts.
------------------------->
The problem is that when I run the 'make getlibs' command, the following error message appears.

<------------------------
[mbed] ERROR: Could not find mbed program in current path "/ home / parallels / jerryscript / targets / mbedos5".
[mbed] ERROR: Change the current directory to a valid mbed program or use the 'global' option to set global configuration.

mbed config root.
[mbed] ERROR: Could not find mbed program in current path "/ home / parallels / jerryscript / targets / mbedos5".
[mbed] ERROR: Change the current directory to a valid mbed program or use the 'global' option to set global configuration.

make: *** [.mbed] Error 255
------------------------->

So I opened the Makefile and looked at the getlibs configuration section.

<------------------------
getlibs: .mbed

.mbed:
mbed config root.
mbed toolchain GCC_ARM
mbed target $ (BOARD)
mbed deploy
------------------------->

I would like to know what to do if the above error occurs.

Thanks in advance

I confirm that I'm facing the same issue here.

@janjongboom @thegecko any idea?

[LMESTM]

Note, I think I could somehow workaround the issue by issuing:
mbed new -vv --create-only .

but then the call to make getlibs says there's nothing to be done
$ make getlibs make: Rien ▒ faire pour ▒ getlibs ▒.

So I had to manually
mbed config root .
mbed toolchain GCC_ARM
mbed target $(BOARD)
mbed deploy

and now finally
make BOARD=...
seemed to work fine

Note that I think I hit the same issue when follwoing npm/gulp based example here:

I'm away from a PC right now, could you try creating a file named .mbed in the project root;

$ touch .mbed

and seeing if it fixes the issue?

[janjongboom]

Confirmed issue with mbed CLI 1.0.0... Does not build unless a .mbed file is present in the directory. Writing a patch for our Makefile right now.

Fixed in #1512.
