Cannot find riak connector

[duffn]

I must be missing something obvious here as I've used a half dozen other connectors previously.

Create application
slc loopback

Install connector
npm install --save loopback-connector-riak

Add to datasources.json

  "rdb": {
    "name":         "rdb",
    "debug":        false,
    "host":         "127.0.0.1",
    "port":         8098,
    "bucketPrefix": "Test",
    "connector":    "riak"
  }

Start the app
node server/server.js

Get this

@duffn looks like we're missing async as a dependency in package.json. For now add

"async": "~0.9.0"

to your package.json and it'll probably work.

@duffn I pushed 0.0.9 with the async dependency listed. If it works for you please close this ticket.

@onyxrev Adding
"async": "~0.9.0"
did it.

Thanks for the prompt response. Your connector is next up here: https://strongloop.com/strongblog/node-js-loopback-js-couchbase-connector/ 👍
