Fail to start application - "electron-forge: command not found"
Installing and running using the app using the commands from the README fails.
git clone https://github.com/felixrieseberg/electron-code-editor
cd electron-code-editor
npm install
npm start
Gives me the following error.
> [email protected] start /Users/anders/Apps/electron-code-editor
> electron-forge start
sh: electron-forge: command not found
I have git, node and npm installed. However I do not have electron forge, as it is not stated as a prerequisite. Do I need to install that manually first?
Running this on macOS Sierra (10.12.5) with GIT 2.10.1, NODE 7.9.0 and NPM 4.2.0.
@felixrieseberg I can repro this. @ulvesked you need to npm install -g electron-forge to get that to go, but if you do, Felix, I got this output:
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: wrench.js is deprecated! You should check out fs-extra (https://github.com/jprichardson/node-fs-extra) for any operations you were using wrench for. Thanks for all the usage over the years.
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please update to minimatch 3.0.2 or higher to avoid a RegExp DoS issue
However, having done that it runs fine. Thanks, Felix, and see you around!
@felixrieseberg some feedback: put 'save' also under the 'file' submenu. also, 'load' and 'save as' would be nice features. And access to change the styling would be a cool feature. I know you can fork it, but from a UX perspective it's nice what atom and sublime text do. Great job, though.
npm install electron Run this command after npm install. Then this will work fine
I did npm install -g electron-forge then got this error msg ,I am using ubuntu on my laptop
