I had analogously problem a week ago.
Solved by editing relay/examples/todo/package.json - need replace relative packages on it npm version:

"babel-relay-plugin": "0.7.3",
"react-relay": "0.7.3",

Strange! I just pulled a fresh copy of Relay from GitHub, performed the following steps, and got the following output. Can you do the same and paste your output?

git clone [email protected]:facebook/relay.git
cd relay/examples/todo
npm install
npm start

the same

I think the problem is that the local reference ("babel-relay-plugin": "file:../../scripts/babel-relay-plugin/") to the babel-relay-plugin is triggering the babel-relay-plugin/package.json scripts before the example's scripts.preinstall. Maybe due to the npm version? Am using 3.7.3.

Replacing the relative packages works, and another option is to run the preinstall script first

git clone [email protected]:facebook/relay.git
cd relay/examples/todo
npm run preinstall
npm install
npm start

I cleaned up the examples for the release of 0.9.0. Give them a try!

I tried (on OS X):

# Delete every globally installed npm module
npm ls -gp --depth=0 | awk -F/ '/node_modules/ && !/\/npm$/ {print $NF}' | xargs npm -g rm
# Return to pristine, first-cloned state
git clean -dfx
# Install and run the todo example
cd examples/todo
npm install
npm start

…and had success. Here was the output. This was with npm v2.14.12 and Node v4.2.6.

If you experience trouble that I didn't, please do open an issue with your npm/Node versions and your output. Thanks for helping to keep the examples healthy everyone!

We're in the middle of a little bit of a revert/unrevert situation, so if anyone wants to try the examples in the next 24 hours or so be sure to check out the v0.9.0 tag:

git clone [email protected]:facebook/relay.git
cd relay
git checkout tags/v0.9.0
