Update package.json main attribute

[Knorcedger]

Hello,

i'm trying to create a composite generator that is using this one, but its not able to even find the 'generator-travis' module. After a couple hours banging my head, I found out that if I change the attribute main in your package.json to the correct path (generators/app/index.js) everything is fine.

Tnx!

@Knorcedger you want to use composeWith.

Then to get the path you want require.resolve('generator-travis/app').

No need for a main field as it currently doesn't mean anything in the Yeoman context.

@SBoudrias No, it says again Error: Cannot find module 'generator-travis/app'

That's the code I'm using. Not sure why changing main attribute fixes it, but it does :P

travis: function() {
  this.composeWith('knr-generator:travis', {}, {
    local: require.resolve('generator-travis/app')
  });
}

Did you npm i --save generator-travis?

[SBoudrias]

Also, you actually want require.resolve('generator-travis/generators/app')

[Knorcedger]

Of course. I deleted the node_modules and installed again and then did the change you told me.

My code is here -> https://github.com/Knorcedger/generator-knr-generator

EDIT: Yes, that works, but why does changing main also work?
