Ionic-framework: tslint and ngc missing for new Ionic v2 RC0 project

Created on 2 Oct 2016 · 7Comments · Source: ionic-team/ionic-framework

Following instructions from the RC0 release notes I created a new project to migrate my beta-11 project to RC0. I checked that I the new CLI was installed and after all the steps and running ionic build android I got an error saying it could not find tslint nor ngc:

[16:36:28]  ionic-app-scripts 0.0.27
[16:36:28]  build prod started ...
[16:36:28]  clean started ...
[16:36:28]  clean finished in 6 ms
[16:36:28]  copy started ...
[16:36:28]  ngc started ...
[16:36:29]  lint started ...
[16:36:29]  Unable to find "tslint" command: null

[16:36:29]  copy finished in 35 ms
[16:36:29]  Unable to find Angular Compiler "ngc" command: null

It still didn't work even after installing them globally, only when running npm install tslint && npm install ngc it started working. Still I am running into an error that I haven't figured out yet:

tslint: /Users/abhaya/projects/myApp/node_modules/tslint/lib/configuration.js:184
            throw new Error("Could not find custom rule directory: " + directory);
            ^

It all started working when I re-created the project after upgrading node to v6 (and as a result upgrading npm to v3). I think it would be worth noting this requirement in the release notes.

Thanks!

I have the same issue, brand new install, new project, but the same error. Just updated npm to 3.10.8 too
