"Cannot read property 'split' of undefined" error

[piranna]

With grunt-jsdoc 0.6.6 I'm getting the next error:

Running "jsdoc:all" (jsdoc) task
Verifying property jsdoc.all exists in config...OK
Files: package.json, README.md, lib/WebRtcPeer.js, lib/browser.js, lib/index.js, test/WebRtcPeer.js, test/_common.js -> doc/jsdoc
Options: private, ignoreWarnings=false, timeout=60
Warning: Cannot read property 'split' of undefined Use --force to continue.

At the same time, executing jsdoc 3.3.0 (the one installed as dependency of grunt-jsdoc) directly it works correctly:

The configuration of Gruntfile is

    jsdoc: {
      all: {
        src: ['package.json', 'README.md', 'lib/**/*.js', 'test/*.js'],
        dest: 'doc/jsdoc'
      }
    },

What's your OS?
Also could you do the following tests for me :

• in node_modules/grunt-jsdoc/tasks/lib/exec.js could you add console.log('nodePath', nodePath); line 66, run it again and give me the result.
• run grunt jsdoc:all --debug copy/paste the command after the Running : tag and try it.

thanks

What's your OS?

Ubuntu 15.04

in node_modules/grunt-jsdoc/tasks/lib/exec.js could you add console.log('nodePath', nodePath); line 66, run it again and give me the result.

nodePath /usr/lib/nodejs:/usr/lib/node_modules:/usr/share/javascript

Just before the paths array.

run grunt jsdoc:all --debug copy/paste the command after the Running : tag and try it.

thanks

You are welcome :-)

Some of my colleages that don't have the package.json entry on the jsdoc are having the same problem, too.

[krampstudio]

Could you also give me the value of paths in the same file, and do you have jsdoc installed globally ?
Then I'll fix the lookup method (as soon as I'm able to reproduce the issue).

[piranna]

Could you also give me the value of paths in the same file,

        //check first the base path into the cwd
        paths = [
            __dirname + '/../../node_modules/.bin/jsdoc',
            __dirname + '/../../node_modules/jsdoc/jsdoc.js'
        ];

I didn't touched it, anyway...

and do you have jsdoc installed globally ?

No, I don't, I've used the one that grunt-jsdoc installed.

Then I'll fix the lookup method (as soon as I'm able to reproduce the issue).

Ok, thank you. You could be able to reproduce by downloading the project code and upgrading the grunt-jsdoc dependency by hand.

[krampstudio]

:) I meant the value of the variable at runtime... but anyway with your project I'll try to reproduce the issue.
BTW your project seems interesting !

[krampstudio]

For now you can make it work by updating your config:

    jsdoc: {
      all: {
        src: ['README.md', 'lib/**/*.js', 'test/*.js'],
        options : {
            destination: 'doc/jsdoc'
        }
      }
    },

0.6.7 should fix it anyway

[piranna]

Yes, 0.6.7 has fixed it, thank you for doing it so quick! :-)

[krampstudio]

Cool!
