Cannot find module 'coffee-script'

问题:

Trying to get a basic site set up with TowerJS as a test, but ran into this error when running the scaffold generator.

Macbook:app john$ tower generate scaffold Post title:string body:text belongsTo:user
{ [Error: Cannot find module 'coffee-script'] code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND' }

module.js:340
    throw err;
          ^

回答1:

Update your package.json file

"coffee-script": "~1.6.3"

on "devDependencies" and update the npm again

npm update

the same issue fixed for me

回答2:

Had similar problem when using grunt, I've removed

node_modules 

folder from my root folder and run

npm install

That fixed my problem

回答3:

You need to check NODE_PATH variable against the location given by npm list -g coffee-script.
If empty, npm install -g coffee-script.

回答4:

This did the trick for me

npm install --save-dev coffee-script

using node v0.10.31

回答5:

You need to check NODE_PATH variable and if it is empty then set it with instructions given here http://www.davidarno.org/2012/02/09/writing-a-node.js-module-in-coffeescript/

回答6:

This is a question from 2012. Now it's nearly 2015, and in the meantime, there is now another, new approach for a differerent variation of the problem caused by breaking changes introduced into node and coffeescript.

For coffeescript > v1.7 you must now call

var coffee = require('coffee-script').register();

instead of

var coffee = require('coffee-script');

See this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/21585379 to this question: How to properly set up Coffeescript with Node.js

回答7:

https://github.com/fgnass/node-dev#settings Note: If you want to use coffee-script < 1.7 you have to change the setting to {"coffee": "coffee-script"}.

so update your coffe-script or config your setting

回答8:

IT happened to me too, and removing node_module folder and npm install to re-create it didn't work, so I installed the required packages separately like:

npm install coffee-script

after that it required one more package and hopefully it was the last one :D

回答9:

With 2 simple steps, I was able to fix this issue

1. npm cache clean
2. npm install

Hope this helps!
