spotter-application/spotter

Im not sure if I have installed it correctly?

Closed this issue · 8 comments

Good Evening,
I just downloaded spotter and it's not allowing me to search anything other than plugins, and won't compile options for the plugins. I installed it from the DMG file, but I'm not too sure what I'm doing wrong in the set-up of spotter.. would it be possible to get some assistance?

Hey @MendesA1994

Did you try to install plugins?
for example npm i -g @spotter-app/applications-plugin@1.9.2

My apologies for being a nuisance, I've just tried that and I cant see its feedback behaviour.

This command should be installed by terminal.app, found under Utilities folder.

Yeah, right, you need to execute the command in your terminal
I'll implement the easiest way to do it later

Im sorry - npm isn't working on mine

I think spotter is expected to install Homebrew and NodeJS (with npm). However as it hasn't done it try:

(To install Brew and Node)
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" && brew install node

(To install just Node)
Head over to Nodejs.org and download the LTS version and follow the steps presented by the installer.

If this works, please close the issue.
(Remember to re-run npm i -g @spotter-app/applications-plugin@1.9.2 in the terminal after this)

Thank you so much guys, I really appreciate it: @Zaitam @ziulev
