Cannot find module

[brianegan]

Howdy!

When I run:

dox-foundation --source myFolderOJavaScript --target docs

I get the following error:

module.js:340
throw err;
^
Error: Cannot find module '/Users/began/workspace/abu/frontend/rebar/js/package'
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15)

at Module.load (module.js:356:32)
at Function.Module._load (module.js:312:12)
at Module.runMain (module.js:492:10)

When I manually edited /usr/local/lib/node_modules/dox-foundation/lib/dox-foundation.js, I removed line 11:

pkg = require('../package'),

And then replaced:

exports.name = pkg.name;

with

exports.name = "dox-foundation";

and

exports.version = pkg.version;

with

exports.version = "0.4.2";

It all worked fine. Not sure how best to fix this ,but wanted to submit a bug report and how I fixed it on my end.

Thanks!
Brian

Hey Brian, Thanks for the bug report. I'll take a look at it. Just a quick
question though, what type of system are you on?

Thanks Matt! I'm on a Mac Book Pro Early 2011, running Mountain Lion. Thanks for the help :)

Hey Brian, this is a strange one. I'm not sure why it's looking for a package.json file in /Users/began/workspace/abu/frontend/rebar/js/package. Are you using 0.4.3? I can't seem to replicate this.

[douglaslassance]

I have the same issue on version 0.4.4 used through grunt-dox or not.

Hi Matt,

I was using 0.8.8, upgraded to 0.8.19, and still getting the error. I tried it on my home computer instead of work, and it seems to be fine there... not sure what the difference is, but if I figure it out I'll let ya know!

Thanks for taking a look at it :)

Best,
Brian

@douglaslassance & @brianegan, can you post the command you ran to install dox-foundation and then the command you are running when you get the error?

[douglaslassance]

npm install -g dox-foundation
dox-foundation --source src --target docs

All that from the appropriate folder of course.
By the way, I am also running Mountain Lion and installed Node and NPM using MacPorts.
