Encountering the 'spawn gulp ENOENT' error with Yeoman/Gulp setup on a Mac machine

Just a heads up: While browsing, I did come across this particular question and also this one, but those situations were both related to Windows. The solutions provided were specific to Windows, whereas I am using a Mac! Please refrain from marking this as a duplicate!!!


Currently running on Mac 10.12.6. As a beginner in AngularJS (v1.x), I am attempting to follow the steps outlined in this guide on creating an internationalized AngularJS app with Yeoman.

After installing the Yeoman AngularJS generator and setting up a directory for my basic test app:

npm install -g generator-angular
mkdir angular-translate-yeoman && cd $_

I proceed to create my internationalized AngularJS app:

yo angular translate

During the process, after selecting gulp instead of grunt, the scaffolding starts to generate. But approximately a minute later, I encounter the following error:

events.js:160
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: spawn gulp ENOENT
    at exports._errnoException (util.js:1020:11)
    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:193:32)
    at onErrorNT (internal/child_process.js:367:16)
    at _combinedTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:80:11)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:104:9)

Any suggestions on what might be causing this issue and how it can be resolved?

Answer №1

Instead of deleting this question, I have decided to keep it up. The issue at hand was the absence of gulp on my system, and the tutorial I referred to failed to mention that gulp needed to be installed beforehand. With zero knowledge about Yeoman, I assumed it would handle all JS dependencies automatically for me.

If you encounter this error while using Yeoman + Gulp on a Mac without having Gulp installed, here's how you can install Gulp:

npm install gulp-cli -g
npm install gulp -D
touch gulpfile.js
gulp --help
