I haven't tries this on windows and node_modules folder is actually committed into the project for handlebars compilation. I wonder if this is something silly like using the windows path separator over here: https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-ui/blob/master/Cakefile#L6 Could you please check?

The problem is with exec command https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-ui/blob/master/Cakefile#L41.
For some reason exec command is parsing and taking the first part.
I tried and got following errors

1. ./node_modules/handlebars/bin/handlebars - . is not recognized as an internal or external command
2. node_modules//handlebars//bin//handlebars and - node_modules is not recognized as an internal or external command
3. node_modules\handlebars\bin\handlebars - 'node_modules\handlebars\bin\handlebars is not recognized as an internal or external command
4. C:\Arjun\projects\swagger-ui\node_modules\handlebars\bin\handlebars - 'C:\Arjun\projects\swagger-ui\node_modules\handlebars\bin\handlebars' is not recognized as an internal or external command
5. .\node_modules\handlebars\bin\handlebars - .\node_modules\handlebars\bin\handlebars is not recognized as an internal or external command

I also tried the same on cygwin and got same errors.

Everything works fine on my MAC but doesnt work on windows
Can you please help me in fixing this.

Ayush - can you help me in fixing this

[ayush]

Hey, I'll look at this summer more today and let you know.

Ok, here is the deal:

• pull the latest master
• install handlebars using 'npm install handlebars -g' (I've updated the README)
• cake dist

Thanks for the fix. It fixed the path problem in cake file but introduced one more issue but this time I have a solution :-)

The swagger-ui handlebar templates are only compatible with 1.0.5beta npm package version. There is no 1.0.beta.6 npm package available(the one swagger-ui included in npm_module).

Details
npm Valid install targets:
npm ["1.0.2beta","1.0.4beta","1.0.5beta","1.0.6","1.0.6-2","1.0.7"]

npm install handlebars -g - will install the latest version and swagger-ui handlebar template are not compatible.

Hence we need to install 1.0.5beta version - npm install [email protected] -g.

Can we delete https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-ui/tree/master/node_modules/handlebars as we are using globally installed npm package?
