npm install issue

[batuhancerli]

while the npm install process operating, suddenly the system gave this error saying that contact with the author. Therefore, I have decided to write an issue. The error is shared below.

[batuhancerli]

Please, give me a hand to overcome this issue. This editor plays an important role for my project

[alexiiion]

thank you for writing in the right repository!

as I see from your screenshot you are in the wrong folder.
please navigate to the correct folder, as described in the readme:
"2. run npm install in the root folder (where package.json lies)"

this will create a folder "node_modules" for you.

[batuhancerli]

Actually , I operated the npm install in C\ Program Files\node.js\npm in which package.jnson lied. So, I think , I was in correct folder, or my assumtion is not correct could you help me in details where I should operate npm install. alexiiion <notifications@github.com> şunları yazdı (12 Nis 2017 13:28):

you need to navigate to the root folder of the editor, since you want to install the dependencies for the editor.

please navigate to .../metamaterial-mechanisms/editor
(or whatever your folder structure is)

i have also updated the readme bases on our discussion. let me know if it runs for you now.

Thanks for everthing, I could download and operate both simulater and editor. Howevet, the simulatar is very complicated not like shown in the HPI's videos. alexiiion <notifications@github.com> şunları yazdı (12 Nis 2017 19:23):

what do you mean? it's the same software. the simulation just runs in the background and everything is operated in the editor as shown in the video.

[batuhancerli]

When I operate the simulator , I counter this scheme.Actually, I do not understand this. iPhone'umdan gönderildi alexiiion <notifications@github.com> şunları yazdı (12 Nis 2017 19:37):

the simulation is slow. it should work.
yes, the editor is a javascript editor so it runs in chrome. but offline

Hi Alex,

Thanks for this thread, I read and followed the procedure given in this thread, but still, I am getting below error

Please guide.

[remigiuszknitter]

I have the same problem...

[alexiiion]

hi @prashantbalagaonkar

apparently you don't have git installed, or not set as environment variable.
google can guide you on this:

[alexiiion]

hi @remigiuszknitter

did you do "npm install"?
I can't see the full error message, so it's hard to help much. what does the log file say?

[eryktobiasz]

hi @alexiiion

I have the same problem as @remigiuszknitter

After npm install

After npm start

[KonradZukowski]

@eryktobiasz

To resolve this problem, you should change package.json (line 33):
"vinyl-source-stream": "^1.1.0" to "vinyl-source-stream": "^2.0.0"

Pozdrawiam! 👍

[eryktobiasz]

I had to delete all files, change package.json and install it again. It works now 👍

[Mobin-M]

@alexiiion
"C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm" is the directory of the file "package.json"

[alexiiion]

I am telling you that this is the wrong folder.

Please navigate to the root folder of the editor: " .../metamaterial-mechanisms/editor" in your command line and run npm install there!

I'm facing this error. please help me

[qoopen0815]

logfile

[alexiiion]

did you download the source code in this repository before running npm install? this looks like some git error which has nothing to do with the editor. please verify (or reinstall) your git installation

[qoopen0815]

I fixed this error.

This error was caused by the absence of a # 4.0 branch in the gulp repository.
So I fixed the error by correcting the package.json you created.

pull request => #7

[Joaquin31]

I have this problem, and I'm in the editor folder where the "package.json" file lies

[loudonicus]

I have found the same, it seems that gulpjs has been deprecated;

@alexiiion can I ask is it possible to have an example json file as I was thinking of setting up a simulation of one of your mechanisms directly in Rhino/GH without the use of the editor front end?
