Can't get the 'sails-generate-new-with-mast' generator to work in sails 0.10

问题

working with sails beta v0.10-rc8 installed globally. i'm using mac osx 10.9.

sudo npm install sails@beta -g

Then I installed the generator npm package both globally (just to give it a shot) and locally in the folder that will contain the project to be generated like:

~/projects& npm install sails-generate-new-with-mast

created the .sailsrc file in the folder containing the project

~/projects/.sailsrc

and in

~/.sailsrc

the file content is:

{
    generators: {
        modules: {
            new: 'sails-generate-new-with-mast'
        }
    }
}

when trying to use

~/projects$ sails generate new MyApp

the default generator is used.

What am I doing wrong? tried for a while but couldn't do it.

Thanks in advance!.

Generators are a really powerful new feature of Sails v0.10, but the system for utilizing custom ones is still a bit clunky. You were on the right track, but you need to install the generator in your home directory (~/node_modules/sails-generate-new-with-mast) and add a .sailsrc file in your home directory with an absolute path to the generator:

{
    generators: {
        modules: {
            new: '/Users/myusername/node_modules/sails-generate-new-with-mast'
        }
    }
}

Then sails new will use that generator.

I must warn you that Mast is completely unsupported and, sadly, pretty much abandoned.
