Grunt is failing locally #helpwanted

[juarezpaf]

I followed every step to try to run zeppelin-grunt locally, but when I run grunt task I get these errors:

Running "serve" task

Running "clean:server" (clean) task
>> 2 paths cleaned.

Running "jekyll:server" (jekyll) task
`jekyll build --source app --destination .jekyll/zeppelin-grunt --config _config.yml` was initiated.

@juarezpaf it seems like Grunt can't find Waves.scss.
Have you run bower install?

[juarezpaf]

@ozasadnyy Yeah! I did it. Actually I tried to run this into my friend's laptop running Windows and it's okay, but here in Mac its failing even after bundle install. npm install & bower install.
I tried to redo the process several times with no success.

Please give me link to your repository.

it seems that currently the set of installs result in bower install installing files into components instead of bower_components. That said, even if files are installed in bower_components (I've renamed them) they will not be found due to the fact that Gruntfile.sass.cwd is set to app/_assets/scss clearly not where the bower_components can be found

This seems an issues with setting up bower. I too did exactly what was required...

Then, when I moved the automatically generate app/components to /bower_components/
it all started working...

so, create a .bowerrc file with:

{ "directory": "bower_components/", "analytics": false }

and you are good to go ! (well... I am ;-) )

grunt --version
grunt-cli v0.1.13
grunt v0.4.5

bower --version
1.5.2

sass --version
Sass 3.4.18 (Selective Steve)

npm --version
2.11.3

ah, it seems that actually there was a .bowerrc file in some upper folder that pre-configured the location bower spews its files into. So, not a bower version issue just a configuration issue. adding the .bowerrc file makes it more self-contained though
