Recently I've been assigned for a project created with AngularJs and it uses Java Play framework to run it. I use IntelliJ-Idea IDE for the development and to run this application.
Once I clicked on "Run", it gives me following errors in the console.
'force' enabled
Will run: [gulp, --gulpfile=gulpfile.js, watch, --force] in /home/supuns/Projects/bd-business-portal/ui

I can't figure out what is happening because I'm new to the environment.
UPDATE: Sorry about the less information I have given in my question. I have globally installed gulp but still it is not working.
Here's the content of build.sbt file.
name := """bd-business-portal"""
version := "1.0-SNAPSHOT"
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(PlayJava)
scalaVersion := "2.11.7"
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
javaJdbc,
cache,
javaWs
)
With the help of my team members I have found the reason that cause this issue is IntelliJ-Idea doesn't know the path to 'Gulp'. I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and even though I have set the path globally it doesn't understand where to find gulp.
Therefore I have installed sbt and from the IntelliJ terminal ran the command:
sbt run
and it worked.
As I had to work on multiple Play framework sbt projects, doing "sbt run" on the terminal and closing IntelliJ windows to free the port was bit hectic. Therefore I decided to find the actual path variable that created this behavior and I found the PATH variable saved in /etc/environment was "/home/supuns/.nvm/versions/node/v6.9.1/bin/gulp" and I changed it to
/home/supuns/.nvm/versions/node/v6.9.1/bin
Then the IntelliJ "Play" button worked as intended.
