Gulp with browserify: Cannot find module src/js/main.js
browserify, gulp, javascript, node.js
Solution
Try using "./src/js/main.js" instead of "src/js/main.js" i.e:
var paths = {
main_js: ['./src/js/main.js'],
js: ['src/js/*.js']
};
Problem
I'm trying to get a basic build set up using Gulp and browserify, but keep seeing this error when trying to run the default task: ``` Error: Cannot find module 'src/js/main.js' from '/Users/ben/dev/git/myapp/' ``` gulpfile.js ``` var gulp = require('gulp'); var browserify = require('browserify'); var del = require('del'); var source = require('vinyl-source-stream'); var paths = { main_js: ['src/js/main.js'], js: ['src/js/*.js'] }; gulp.task('clean', function(done) { del(['build'], done); }); gulp.task('js', ['clean'], function() { browserify(paths.main_js) .bundle() .pipe(source('bundle.js')) .pipe(gulp.dest('./build/')); }); gulp.task('watch', function() { gulp.watch(paths.js, ['js']); }); gulp.task('default', ['watch', 'js']); ``` main.js ``` console.log("Hello!") ``` myapp/ ``` . ├── gulpfile.js ├── node_modules │ ├── browserify │ ├── del │ ├── gulp │ └── vinyl-source-stream ├── npm-debug.log ├── package.json └── src ├── css ├── index.html └── js └── main.js ``` I can't understand why it's failing to find main.js. When I run this command from `myapp/`, it works fine: `$ browserify src/js/main.js > build/bundle.js`
