npm post-install script? about dokku-bower-grunt-build-plugin HOT 3 CLOSED

I don't know. I'm not even sure what you're trying to do here. Those commands don't come from this repo. Can you post any other code that might help track this down?

I found my error. Dokku uses a root account where as heroku uses a randomly generated user account with normal privileges.

I needed to add a .npmrc file with the following:

unsafe-perm = true

What I was trying to do was instead of using a plugin such as dokku-bower-grunt-build-plugin, I wanted to simply use a postinstall script which would work on both heroku and dokku.

I added grunt-cli to my dependencies, moved my devDependencies to regular dependencies, added a postinstall script as thus:

"postinstall": "./node_modules/bower/bin/bower --allow-root install && ./node_modules/grunt-cli/bin/grunt heroku"

I then needed to add a Gemfile with compass and sass-globbing. Use ddollar's heroku-multi-buildpack and add ruby as the first buildpack before node.

I then needed to enable bundleExec within the Grunt compass contrib task.

Quite a bit more overhead but a satisfactory solution in the end.

I think that's one of the problems with this sort of software. Any mis-matched feature means you differ from the original documentation and end up with new problems!
