Swiper: Line breaks can't be quoted on Windows

[hamedfaryabi]

I want to install swiper with npm on a Laravel project.
But I get the following error:

npm ERR! Line breaks can't be quoted on Windows

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR! C:Users\hamed\AppData\Local\npm-cache_logs\2020-11-28T14_07_10_351Z-debug.log

I tried to install other packages with npm and succeeded

and this is my error log:

I'm having the same issue. I want to install the 6.4.0 version and throws the error npm ERR! Line breaks can't be quoted on Windows. Currently, I have the 6.3.5 version installed. The issue mentioned by @vltansky is only pointing to solve this by using yarn, so it is not resolving the particular issue with npm.

@rodsotdia @hamedfaryabi
could you please run both scripts in cmd:

1. Should crash:

echo \"\u001b[35m\u001b[1mLove Swiper? Support Vladimir's work by donating or pledging on patreon:\u001b[22m\u001b[39m\n > \u001b[32mhttps://patreon.com/vladimirkharlampidi\u001b[0m\n\"

1. Should work

echo \"\u001b[35m\u001b[1mLove Swiper? Support Vladimir's work by donating or pledging on patreon:\u001b[22m\u001b[39m \" && echo \"> \u001b[32mhttps://patreon.com/vladimirkharlampidi\u001b[0m\"

[rodsotdia]

@vltansky At least for me, neither worked.

[vltansky]

@rodsotdia did you get the same error in both cases?

Can you please run:

node -e "console.log('\u001b[35m\u001b[1m','Love Swiper? Support Vladimir\\'s work by donating or pledging on patreon:');console.log('\u001b[22m\u001b[39m\u001b[32m','> https://patreon.com/vladimirkharlampidi')"

[rodsotdia]

@vltansky Not errors at all, just it is not echoing the text.

The last one worked! Echoes the text correctly.

[vltansky]

cool! Thanks for checking.
Will update the PR now.

[rodsotdia]

Nice! Thanks @vltansky 💯

I have tried latest echo test and failed. I think this is the reason why Swiper got me mad with "Line breaks can't be quoted on Windows" error.
Node 15.10 and npm 7.6.0

[aubweb9]

same here

npm i swiper@latest npm ERR! Line breaks can't be quoted on Windows

[VueDeveloperRu]

npm install vue-awesome-swiper --save
(https://www.npmjs.com/package/vue-awesome-swiper)

However, following error come out...

npm ERR! Line breaks can't be quoted on Windows
I am developing Laravel + Vue project. Thank you
