Not working on Mac Os 10.9.3 about gulp-app

[sindresorhus]

Because of a bug in node-webkit I had to hard code the location of the Node binary. Do you mind running which node and paste the output?

[danielhusar]

/usr/local/bin/node

I had to hard code the location of the Node binary.

Is it possible to create an npm pkg for looking up node?

[sindresorhus]

I added some debugging. Mind trying it out? https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-app/releases

It opens dev tools on startup. Go to the "Console" tab a paste the output here.

I dunno. There's just so many places the Node binary could be, but on OS X it's almost always in /usr/local/bin so I'd rather wait it out: nwjs/nw.js#213 (please 👍 on that ticket).

Hi,

no problem.
It logs this error:

Error {stack: "Error: libsass bindings not found. Try reinstall…s:3:13)↵ at Module._compile (module.js:452:26)", message: "libsass bindings not found. Try reinstalling node-sass?"}

This is the gulpfile: https://github.com/danielhusar/danielhusar.sk

@danielhusar weird, I'm just spawning your node binary, so should be the same as running gulp. I assume running gulp works fine?

Can you try running /usr/local/bin/node './node_modules/gulp/bin/gulp.js' in the same folder as your gulpfile?

Running into the same issues as the above using the same node path. Screenshot of debug output:

Some UX feedback: I think it would make sense to allow the user to choose the folder they would like to target for use with the app (e.g only allow the folder to be selected if a gulpfile is present). I usually have multiple windows open during development and had to cycle back closing them to ensure there wasn't more than one with a gulpfile in there.

Hi,

yep running gulp works fine, even running /usr/local/bin/node './node_modules/gulp/bin/gulp.js' works fine.

I will later try also on my other machine.

Thanks a lot for your help.

[sindresorhus]

Should be fixed now.

Try out the latest binary: https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-app/releases/tag/0.0.3

[danielhusar]

Yep its working, thanks a lot, great app. :)

@sindresorhus Great!

I'm still looking for another solution, because I'm a nodebrew user ><

FYI, atom-shell have same issue related to this.

• atom-community/atom-script#61
• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/135688/setting-environment-variables-in-os-x

Actually, the command below works fine (spawning from user's terminal), although this is NOT a solution...

$ open /Applications/gulp.app

[sindresorhus]

@cognitom yeah, i'm aware. It's a general problem with OS X GUI apps...

I've worked around it for the default node path. I would be happy to accept a PR adding the homebrew path too ;)

See: 8ae786f#diff-3c56f1dfc265d93d754c52ea6397c36aR17

[cognitom]

OK! I'll try it later. Thanks ;-)
