problems running the latest ronin

[chris]

Hi:

I'm following the instructions on the ronin website for the quick-
install and am running into problems:


c:\d\projects>vark --version
Aardvark version 0.4

c:\d\projects>vark -f http://ronin-web.org/init.vark init ronin_app
Buildfile: c:\d\projects\http:\ronin-web.org\init.vark
Specified vark buildfile c:\d\projects\http:\ronin-web.org\init.vark
doesn't exist
at gw.vark.AardvarkProgram.parse(AardvarkProgram.java:61)
at gw.vark.AardvarkProgram.parseWithTimer(AardvarkProgram.java:
36)
at gw.vark.Aardvark.run(Aardvark.java:132)
at gw.lang.Gosu.start(Gosu.java:87)
at gw.lang.launch.GosuLauncher.run(GosuLauncher.java:116)
at gw.lang.launch.GosuLauncher.main(GosuLauncher.java:46)

c:\d\projects>


The link to Aardvark on the quick-install page takes you to the
Aardvark home page and the default aardvark.zip/tgz files are the
0.3.3 versions. You have to click the [more] link and then get the
0.4.preview file. I only know about this by bugging Carson on
twitter :)

And, with the latest web site refresh I can't find a link to get any
help (eg. this group or the gosu-lang group)

Hi Chris,

I believe the correct flag is -url rather than -f.  Thanks for catching that, I'll update the site tonight.

[Carson Gross]

Yep:

  vark -url http://ronin-web.org/init.vark init -name my_app

Releases are hard.  ;)

Cheers,

Carson

[chris]

Awesome that worked...sorta...Looks like I can name my project
anything and ronin wants to prefix it with my_ :)

Aardvark is picking up "ronin_app" as a second target, rather than as an argument to "init".  Carson?  Brian?

[Carson Gross]

You need a -name in front of 'ronin_app' I think.

Aardvark is interpreting 

  vark -url http://ronin-web.org/init.vark init ronin_app

As 'run the init task, then run the ronin_app task' IIUC.

Cheers,
Carson

[chris]

Ahh ok. The quickstart should be updated to reflect that too.

I'm also not sure what the effect is of leaving the -name parameter
off. I tried to re-create my project with the same name as the
quickstart example and Aardvark was still looking for and creating
my_ronin_app:


c:\d\projects>vark -url http://ronin-web.org/init.vark init my_app

Target "my_app" does not exist in the project "null".

That's probably an Aardvark issue more than a Ronin one

my_ronin_app is the default name we use if no name is supplied.   Without "-name", whatever you put after "init" is interpreted as a second target to be executed after "init" finishes, rather than as the name for "init" to use.

[chris]

lol. I specified the name my_ronin_app to be different from the
quickstart example :)

Such is the pain of being THE VERY FIRST USER of Ronin 0.9.4

Thanks for playing! :)

Cheers,
Carson

[chris]

Heh. I think that with the IJ tooling Ronin is at least at "not quite
ready for prime time" awesomeness (http://snl.wikia.com/wiki/
The_Not_Ready_For_Prime_Time_Players)

Chris

[Carson Gross]

I work in the IJ rails plugin a lot.  They make a lot of hay out of not quite ready for prime time. ;)

Cheers,
Carson
