Getting Blade to work with Meteor on Windows 8


I installed Meteor for Windows via this MSI installer. Now I would like to get Blade working with it. I read through this tutorial in the Blade docs, but atmosphere/meteorite doesn't seem to work with Windows.

Is there a workaround?


Solution

  • Have you got meteor working? There is a manual way, ive not tried it before but it should work.

    Install the blade module with npm npm install blade.

    Clone the blade git repo and place the meteor subdirectory in meteors package directory, rename it to blade ( I think its C:\Program Files\Meteor\packages (but you'd have to check that directory)

    Edit the files in the files in the blade directory to reference the files in the blade npm module correctly. In linux/unix this bit is easy because you could just symlink directly it into packages without copying the folders in and re referencing the files.

    Finally go to your meteor project and run meteor add blade and it should be good to go.
