Global install failure

[interstellerS]

Hi ,

I tried installing jhipster-uml :

$ npm install -g jhipster-uml  

in windows / linux (ubuntu) , it fails with this log output :

> deasync@0.1.0 install C:\Users\Administrateur\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\jhipster-uml\node_modules\deasync
> node ./build.js

Hi,

I just tried the -g option, and everything's fine for me.
I'll do some tests.

[interstellerS]

Yes , i think jhipster-uml is fine .
it's just related to deasync package that need some sort of envirement installed packages to compile .

npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the deasync package,

I'll try to test the installation of everything on a clean (no node, no package) machine, and see if it fails.

Does the standard way to install a package work for you? By standard I mean npm install jhipster-uml.

[interstellerS]

I get the same error as global install .

[MathieuAA]

Maybe this is caused by your configuration...

I'll try to test on a Windows machine. If it can't build deasync, then something must be missing.

[interstellerS]

Right , installing deasync lead to same problem .
You can go ahead an close this issue . thanks for you quick reply 👍 .

[MathieuAA]

If you can't install deasync, then an alternative to deasync must be found.
I'll close this thread and open another to replace this package, or find a way to install it everywhere.

[interstellerS]

I confirm it's a configuration issue (installing Python , MS express ....) like explained in this git :

https://gist.github.com/nullivex/7115612

fix deasync issue ans jhipster-uml is installed like charm .

[MathieuAA]

Ok! Nice to hear it =)

[interstellerS]

Yup , jhipster is really cool . thx for your work !

Unrelated question : does jhypster-uml generate Enumuration attiributes ?

I modelled an Enum in the uml but in code i just get the name

@Column(name = "sport")
    private  sport;

Instead of

@Column(name = "sport")
    private  Sport sport;

[MathieuAA]

Since JHipster doesn't support Enums (to my knowledge), we don't support them either.

[interstellerS]

There's an issue about that : Enums in Jhipster .

And a pull request is being merged 3 days ago : Use enumeration for field type .

I guess it's too early to be implemented in jshipster-uml . Could this be supported in future version ? :)

We want the users to be able to do the same things that they can do with JHipster but faster, so yes we will implement it, but for now we are focusing on some pretty neat new stuff for JHipster-UML. ;)
