Failing to create Project

[darrenahunter]

Hi Diego

Have just updated your generator (npm install -g generator-ionicjs) the updated yo also then ran 'yo ionicjs' and selected No Compass, added statusbar and splashscreen to plugins then the generator fails with attached screenshot error - basicall no saying not a cordova structure I think - any ideas

Did you add a platform? IOS or android

Hi

Haven’t got to adding platforms as yet.

This is on the very first run of ‘yo ionicjs’ - it is creating the base project in a clean, empty, freshly created directory

thanks

Thanks for bringing this up. I had this on my TODO list put didn't make an issue for it. As it turns out, this Cordova error occurs when the generator skips the cordova create command (because the directory is non-empty Cordova won't re-init a project) but the directory doesn't contain any Cordova files.

[diegonetto]

So for now, mkdir MyAppName && cd $_ then run yo ionicjs in that directory so that the initial cordova create command gets executed.

[diegonetto]

I'll add error handling inside the generator for this, so we make it clear that the directory you run yo ionicjs has to be either empty or already contain the .cordova directory.

Check out these lines from the Cordova CLI create command

many thanks again Diego

I removed and recreated directory and all ok now

Also I thought I created another suggestion on github for you but I can’t find it.

Can you enhance your generator to ask for a Name and ID that can be used on the cordova create command rather than defaulting to the directory name.

ie cordova create com.darrenahunter.myionicapp “My Ionic App”

would save editing files after creation

thanks again

Can you let me know, how to fix this. deleted and run yo ionic in the new folder too.

Hi Ravi

Did you remove the directory completely or just delete files in it - ie. may not have deleted the hidden files / directories.

Also you could try to add a directory ‘.cordova’ in the root as I think that is what cordova expects

cheers
Darren

@ravikiranr26 that CERT_UNTRUSTED worries me. As much as I dislike development on Windows, I'm here to help as best I can.

Its an issue with your environment and how Node.js is set up. Try following the discussion on StackOverflow here - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21752198/error-cert-untrusted-while-creating-cordova-project

Let me know if any of that works. Thanks.

@ravikiranr26 are you still experiencing this issue on the latest version?

[ravikiranr26]

Nope, I have resolved it. It was due the firewall.
