I've been trying to install Semantic via NPM for a while now and am having problems. I run npm install semantic-ui and it goes through the setup process. However, it stops at Finished 'install' after 3.61 s and never exits the process. If I manually cancel the process and navigate to the semantic folder and run gulp build I'm told there's no local gulp found. So I run npm install gulp just for fun. It installs and I run gulp build again but all of the gulp dependencies are missing.

Any ideas? It's getting frustrating because I've been tinkering with it for a few hours instead of getting to work on the actual project. Running npm install in the semantic directory or my project directory doesn't work either. Thanks for the help!

EDIT: I tried creating a new Ubuntu VM and installing Semantic the same way I was on my Mac. It worked with no problems leading me to believe it's something to do with my configuration on my Mac.

  • P.S. I tried in a different directory and got the same result... Really not sure what could be causing the issues. Commented May 16, 2015 at 3:28
  • What errors are you getting when you say It installs and I run gulp build again but all of the gulp dependencies are missing.? Commented May 16, 2015 at 4:26
  • @Filype currently I'm getting No gulpfile found. I feel like the install isn't actually completing because all that's in my semantic folder is src and tasks. Commented May 16, 2015 at 4:29
  • I just installed this npm packaged. It looks like after the message you received Finished 'install' after 3.61 s you need to wait to as some npm packages install is ran? Commented May 16, 2015 at 4:32
  • inside the folder semantic there's a gulpfile Commented May 16, 2015 at 4:34

This is really odd, but after I got to the Finished 'install' step, nothing was happening. Just a solid cursor when the node deps should've been installing. I decided to hit return just to see if anything would happen and that seems to have done it. Hitting return gives me the spinning cursor and the deps install. I can successfully run gulp build after that. Weird.

Huhhhh, you saved my day.
I decided to hit return just to see if anything would happen and that seems to have done it. same happened to me but unfortunately I cannot do gulp build I get: Cannot find semantic.json. Run "gulp install" to set-up Semantic I have tried moving the semantic.json from project root to where semantic gulp is with no luck
Just a heads-up, it appears the issue has been fixed in the latest version of Semantic.
