Build is moving styles to the wrong path

[oskarrough]

Just did npm update -g and now the default generator-webapp is moving main.css to dist/.tmp/styles/main.css on build. Can't wrap my head around what changed.

Running generator-webapp 0.4.4 with node v0.10.22 on OSX 10.9. Here's the Gruntfile.js and build log.

I got the same issue with the fresh install of webapp generator.

I have an error related to this I think. I believe this is a similar issue, if it helps: yeoman/yeoman#411

[eddiemonge]

can you gist the output of the grunt build process?

[eddiemonge]

i think it might be related to yeoman/grunt-usemin#238

[haydenbleasel]

@eddiemonge - First gist is grunt, outputs the following which was fixed in yeoman/generator-webapp#192, second gist is grunt build (or grunt after fixing indentation problems).

Problem for me is here:

Running "cssmin:generated" (cssmin) task
>> Destination not written because minified CSS was empty.

Generated with Modernizr and Bootstrap for Sass on Mac OSX 10.9, latest yo and generator-webapp.

@oskarrough @Khrystyna @haydenbleasel can you try updating usemin and try again?

[haydenbleasel]

@eddiemonge - Updated to 2.0.2. No dice I'm afraid, same error as my previous comment.

[smongey]

@haydenbleasel I was having a very similar issue. In your gruntfile uncomment the dist section for cssmin and it should do the trick although the names of the images referenced in you css don’t get revved.

[smongey]

@haydenbleasel Actually just sussed it will revv them if its url('/images/logo.png') not if its url(../images/logo.png)

[haydenbleasel]

@smongey - For reference, this error happens without any modifications to the scaffold i.e. just running yo webapp then grunt build.

[oskarrough]

The webapp is now working out of the box again. Also tried updating usemin from 2.0.0 to 2.0.2 and both were working.

@haydenbleasel could you try npm update -g and see it if works now?

[haydenbleasel]

@oskarrough - Did an npm update -g and generated a new webapp with yo webapp, still produces the same error. Not sure why that would have changed, usemin hasn't been updated in a week, generator-webapp hasn't been updated in 3 weeks. Since your error was different and it's now apparently resolved, we can bring this over to #211.

[oskarrough]

Sure.

I am getting this same error. I have updated gems, npm and brew with not luck.

A fresh install of webapp and an immediate grunt build gives me:

Running "cssmin:generated" (cssmin) task

Destination not written because minified CSS was empty.
File dist/styles/main.css created.

OS X 10.9.1
