Buckaroo install failing
See original GitHub issueHi,
I just installed Buckaroo (via Homebrew) and I’m trying to use it in a new project. When I try to add a dependency, it’s throwing JsonSyntaxException and failing.
OS: Mac 10.12.3 Buckaroo Version: 0.1.0
Steps to reproduce:
> mkdir test
> cd test
> buckaroo init
What is the name of your project?
> test
Creating buckaroo.json...
Done.
> buckaroo install boost/thread
Adding dependency on boost/thread...
Could not read the config.
java.io.IOException: com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJsonException: Expected name at line 8 column 2 path $.cookBooks

@FictionIO I was unable to reproduce this issue on a clean install.
As @ar90n suggested, it looks like your config file is invalid. There isn’t much to this file, so I would suggest fixing it manually.
After running an install, try copying the below into
~/.buckaroo/config.json:Hi
I think it is odd because buckaroo works correctly in my environment like yours. It seems that your log shows that buckaroo fails to parse config file. So it might turn out well by removing $HOME/.buckaroo directory and reruning install.
