Missing dependencies when used from NPM

[mflux]

Here are my steps to get the demos running:

npm install webvr-boilerplate
cd node_modules/
cd webvr-boilerplate/
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 

I assume there's no build? there's no grunt/gulp, absolutely nothing in readme.md that hints at building.

In chrome, errors:

GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/es6-promise/dist/es6-promise.js
(index):73 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/three.js
(index):78 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/examples/js/controls/VRControls.js
(index):83 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/examples/js/effects/VREffect.js
(index):99 Uncaught ReferenceError: THREE is not defined(…)

Alright so THREE is missing and some other things. I go back into the index.html folder and

npm install

[email protected] node_modules\watchify
[email protected] node_modules\browserify
[email protected] node_modules\derequire

GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/es6-promise/dist/es6-promise.js
(index):73 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/three.js
(index):78 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/examples/js/controls/VRControls.js
(index):83 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/examples/js/effects/VREffect.js
(index):99 Uncaught ReferenceError: THREE is not defined(…)

Same errors. Still missing THREE.

npm install --save three

GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/es6-promise/dist/es6-promise.js
(index):73 GET http://localhost:8000/node_modules/three/three.js
VRControls.js:6 Uncaught ReferenceError: THREE is not defined(…)(anonymous function) @ VRControls.js:6
VREffect.js:12 Uncaught ReferenceError: THREE is not defined(…)(anonymous function) @ VREffect.js:12
(index):99 Uncaught ReferenceError: THREE is not defined(…)

Module issues.

I'm missing something obvious that's undocumented. Please help?

Hi Michael, there actually is a build step. You can run npm build. Although the build is checked in, as are all of the node dependencies.
