I am getting the following error when I am try to start my app in windows.

basedir=$(dirname "$(echo "$0" | sed -e 's,\\,/,g')")
[0]           ^^^^
[0] ^^^
[0]
[0] SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

Any explanations or packages that I am missing?

Here is my package.json, please let me know some of the scripts that are mac specific and might lead to the above error, from my analysis it is around server or update:watch package.json

  • Maybe this link can help you https://stackoverflow.com/questions/778135/how-do-i-get-the-equivalent-of-dirname-in-a-batch-file – axl-code Aug 09 '19 at 17:19
  • This is incomplete. Do provide what does your `package.json` looks like what are you trying to acheive with what command. – ambianBeing Aug 09 '19 at 17:19
  • Also, how are you running it on windows? If you're not using bash (for example, if you're using cmd.com) then Windows don't have the same command line as Mac/Linux. For example `ls` on Mac is `dir` on Windows – slebetman Aug 09 '19 at 17:42
  • Sorry added the package.json – Omkar Dixit Aug 09 '19 at 19:07

Sometimes minor version changes can break things. There might be some monor version change happened from the time you did npm install on your Mac and by the time you did on Window. So, it is advised to keep the package-lock.json in git and update it whenever you are updating your package.json. Also, not that not all packages are compatible with all the platforms. I am sure you can identify the problem causing node module by the call stack.
