Clasp: Command Failed: clasp push

[labnol]

The push command is failing because Clasp is unable to read the appsscript.json file in the root directory though it exists.

The issue is specific to clasp v1.5.2 though it works with the 1.4 release.

`➜ ls dist
appsscript.json
code.js
oauth2.js

➜ npx clasp status
Not ignored files:
└─ dist/code.js
└─ dist/oauth2.js

Ignored files:
└─ dist/appsscript.json

➜ npx clasp push
Push failed. Errors:
Project contents must include a manifest file named appsscript.
Files to push were:
└─ dist/code.js

Hey @labnol, I spend a few minutes today trying to fix this issue.

However, I'm not sure what the problem is. This is my config:

Files

.clasp.json

{
  "scriptId":"11AIejfE3_Qbmh0BO1Yb0g75c0giLjWlghFcALj9BI6OTLHI7JyDU-Pph",
  "rootDir": "dist"
}

dist/foo.js

Logger.log('hi');

dist/appsscript.json

{
  "timeZone": "America/New_York",
  "dependencies": {
  },
  "exceptionLogging": "STACKDRIVER"
}

Issue

It seems like you're looking to have the appsscript.json file be separate from the Apps Script project (as in, outside of dist/). This doesn't seem like a good idea since that file is part of the source files for the Apps Script project.

For your config, can you make sure that appsscript.json is in your rootDir, or copy it there?

I don't really want to look at both your .clasp.json directory _and_ your rootDir directory to find the manifest file.

Hello @grant - The manifest file is in the rootdir itself and the clasp push command is still ignoring it for some reason.

I upgraded to Clasp 1.5.3 today and it seems to have resolved the issue. Thanks for the help.

I confirm that the problem was in versions above 1.4 and below 1.5.3
