I cannot take a deeper look right now, but this might be an issue related to your package manager: try reinstalling the generator after clearing you module cache:

npm rm -g generator-ngx-rocket
npm cache clean --force
npm i -g generator-ngx-rocket

What's you OS/version? Do you use a node version manager, like nvm, n or something else?

I have update ngx rocket
When I execute ngx new

/home/luis/.nvm/versions/node/v9.5.0/lib/node_modules/generator-ngx-rocket/node_modules/conf/index.js:56
throw new Error('Project name could not be inferred. Please specify the projectName option.');

I have tried ngx new --projectName dummyproject too

@LuisReinoso strange, seems that the conf package cannot find the package.json file where it gets the name to same the cli config. Might be related to NVM setup, not sure why it's failing like that.
I will push a quick fix anyways, I'll keep you updated.

[sinedied]

Should be fixed in 6.0.1.

@polu3g can you open a new issue, following the issue template please? We cannot help you if we don't have information about your environment.

[pworoniecki]

Just to let you know - I had exactly the same issue as posted by @polu3g and I was able to resolve it by upgrading Node version (previously I had 8.11.3, now I have last LTS version, i.e. 12.16.3). I use Win 10 64-bit.

[polu3g]

whats the min node version supported ? thanks

[sinedied]

The min version is currently 10.9, as shown on the badge on the top of readme here: https://github.com/ngx-rocket/generator-ngx-rocket

You can also find this information in the package.json file, under the engines property. If you try installing the package generator-ngx-rocket from an incompatible Node version, you should also get a warning in the console telling your the minimum supported version.
