Installing issues @W7 + WebStorm + NPM

[rastislavcore]

At first I install node-gyp 0.13.0, then I want install protagonist (latest - 0.11.0). But there is always error:

Install packages failed: Error occurred when installing package protagonist.
"C:\Program Files\nodejs\npm.cmd" install protagonist

Exit code: 1

Standard error:
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/protagonist
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/protagonist

I have just tried it on W7 and it works for me just fine:

Do you still experience the problems?

[rastislavcore]

Still same issue, did you use Webstorm NPM installer?
PS are there any dependencies for this?

[zdne]

@max258 I do not have / use web storm, I have verified this using plain Windows prompt / power shell. I really do not like how npm call names here:

npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the protagonist package,
npm ERR! not with nom itself

@max258 I have just tried to install protagonist from Win command prompt and it looks OK.

node v0.10.22, Windows 7, MSVS 2012 (make sure to have MSVC essentials installed if not full MSVS), node-gyp v0.12.1

[rastislavcore]

Ok, i will it test one more time. Thank you for helping.

Getting the exact issue on a Win8.1 machine. Tried npm installing node-gyp v0.12.1 as mentioned above and did not help. Just wondering if @max258 or anyone figured anything out here.

[rastislavcore]

@douglas-mason I cannot solve the problem, i change the machine.

@max258 @douglas-mason Can you try using a later npm version? preferably 2.x.x. I am pretty sure it is the problem.

Also, please take a look at #33

Since this issue was originally created, we've now introduced a new package (Drafter NPM) which can be used to install Protagonist, or fallback on a pure javascript version of the API Blueprint parser.

If you're having difficulties setting up your environment I'd recommend using https://github.com/apiaryio/drafter-npm instead.
