Error in Grunt file for combined - individual Library Grunt commands working fine.

[danzen]

Hi Folks,

I have successfully used Grunt to make each individual module without error. But when I run the grunt next (or grunt build) in the combined directory I get the following errors:

Loading "mxmlc.js" tasks...ERROR

Error: Cannot find module 'flex-sdk'

AND

E:\createjs\EaselJS\build\Gruntfile.js:
Could not find an option named "sourcemap".
Warning: Exited with error code 64 Use --force to continue.
Aborted due to warnings.

This repeats for each module.

As you can see in the log below, it seems to be SASS that is reporting the "sourcemap" issue and it gives a bunch of suggested commands including "source-map". I thought maybe that the sourcemap setting was changed to source-map and this was causing the problem. But when I update the code in the grunt file to source-map it gives me another error so I gave up.

It looks like it could be a quick fix for someone who knows what is going on in the Grunt file. And it would be great to be able to make a combined file so we can carry on here.

Thanks in advance.

Dan

For the flex-sdk issue, it would be best to just remove that from the SoundJS build, since that plugin will never be updated anyways.

As for sass, theres a much newer version of grunt-contrib-sass so upgrading that should work (or downgrade your local sass version to a version that supports the sourcemap flag). Or the quick "fix" is to force the build grunt build --force, the docs might get messed up without updated css, but the source will build fine.

Thanks @wdamien! I did get the latest version of sass to run this (never had sass before). So where would the upgrading the grunt-contrib-sass happen? I don't mind running it with the --force as I don't need the docs right now... but maybe will need it in the future.

Woot! The grunt build --force worked to give a combined file in the build directory. Cheers.
