Doesn't work in VS Task Runner Explorer (TRX)

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Not sure if this is a bug with TRX or with gulp-notify.

I get the following error:

gulp-notify: [Error in notifier] Error in plugin 'gulp-notify'

It's most likely an issue with toasting from inside visual studio, but I figured I'd make you aware in case there's something that can be done on this side.

Hi!

This might be a issue with accessing a executable within VS. I'd have to test it out to actually see what is going on.

What version of gulp-notify are you using?

2.0.1

It seems to be a permissions issue. If I run Visual Studio as administrator, the notification works fine. Think there's any way you can detect that situation and switch to text output?

Might be a bit outside gulp-notify's responsibilities though...

Yes, thats unfortunate, but I thunk this is outside the scope in which gulp-notify should do. The best I van do is to add a comment in the readme. Thanks for investigating and making me aware of this.

No problem. I'm going to tell John Papa as well, since he's using gulp-notify in his "hottowel" yeoman generator.
