Question

data folder is missing when installing as dependency

Closed this issue 8 years ago · 1 comments

I use npm 3.10.5. When I install package via npm, the "data" folder is missing, and I get errors when running package. It's probably npm glitch, so maybe to fix you could rename this folder.

Actually it seems to be the issue with data in .gitignore. If you put it there, npm automatically removes all files when publishing / installing github repository.
