Packaging Widget

Hey Everyone,

I am getting this error when I run

node homepages pack --widget "infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified" on windows. Am I missing anything?

"Failed to create zip file: C:DevInforwidgetssdkHomepagesWidgetSamplesBuildsinfor.sample.ionapi.social.modified-1.0.20210707-155252.zip {"errno":-4058,"code":"ENOENT","syscall":"open","path":"C:\Dev\Infor\widgetssdk\HomepagesWidget\Samples\Widgets\_lime_temp_1625691172720\infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified\widget.js.map"}"

Any pointers will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rohan

Hi, Are you sure you installed the dependencies with

npm install

You need to do this in the project director, where the package.json is.

Also ENOENT would be that a file does not exist. The map file should not be part of the output that is zipped, so that is strange. Try and see if you have changed any configuratio to output map files or perhaps something has changed in the dependencies that would cause this.

Hi Karin,

Thanks for your reply. I did do a npm install again this morning but I get the same error.

It can be "configuration to output map files". I was able to pack another simple widget but not this one. Should I look at the widget.manifest file to see if something changed?

Hi,

It's not in the manifest, It's in the homepages.js pack file. It contains options for the typescript compiler that has sourceMap set to false. So I don't see how you would have changed that one. Look at the help for homepages pack script and run it will more logs and see if you can detect any difference between the widget that worked and this one.

Example: node homepages pack "Widgets/infor.sample.angular.helloworld" --clearTemp=false --zip=false --trace

node homepages pack "Widgets/infor.sample.angular.helloworld" --clearTemp=false --zip=false --trace

node homepages help has more information.

The zipping is just the final part and that can also be done manually. As long as you have the output and all the built files. There should be no .map files in the output.

Hi Karin,

Thank you so much for your inputs. So this is what I did:

1. I ran "node homepages pack "infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified" --clearTemp=false --zip=false --trace" on infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified and infor.sample.angular.helloworld. Both commands ran fine.

2. I then ran the command node homepages pack "infor.sample.angular.helloworld". This ran fine and created a zip file.

3. Tried to run node homepages pack "infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified" which failed again while creating the zip file.

4. Then I looked at the zip file created for infor.sample.angular.helloworld (step 2) and saw it contains 3 files widget.js, widget-aot.js and widget.manifest.

5. I then went back to the temp folder created for infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified (step 1) selected those files and created a zip for infor.sample.ionapi.social.modified.

6. tried uploading but it failed. So back to square one.

Not sure what to do at this point.
