Adapt Learning Community: How do I know if grunt is installed correctly?

Hi all, I think I installed adapt and grunt correctly, via sudo npm install... I was able to create a test course.

Then, when I tried "grunt build" this is what I got

luca@luca-laptop:~/test-course$ grunt build
Loading "Gruntfile.js" tasks...ERROR
>> Error: Cannot find module 'matchdep'
Warning: Task "build" not found. Use --force to continue.

Aborted due to warnings.

I seem to get the same error for any grunt command

luca@luca-laptop:~/test-course$ grunt server
Loading "Gruntfile.js" tasks...ERROR
>> Error: Cannot find module 'matchdep'
Warning: Task "server" not found. Use --force to continue.

Aborted due to warnings.

How do I know if grunt was installed correctly?

Thanks,

Luca

Hi Luca, I have installed node/grunt/adapt on Ubuntu
nvm worked for me.

Hello Luca,

'matchdep' is a dependency of the build system. The task runner is reporting that it is missing, I suspect that the npm install command did not run and complete successfully.

Try running it again from inside the course folder it should complete with any errors and report success.
