Static assets not resolving about superset HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi,
Have you tried running npm install and npm run dev on assests folder ?

from superset.

Did you follow the instructions here?
https://github.com/airbnb/caravel/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

from superset.

Yes, I ran both. It's really strange as the file it's complaining about exist in the directory as expected. The link is hardcoded in the codebase to: '/static/assets/javascripts/dist/css-theme.entry.js'. This file does exist in the given location.

I went to the file: basic.html, deleted it's content, and re-run the application. It still worked, which is unexpected. So, there's something that I'm missing. Modifying any file has no effect. This is probably just something fundamental to flask that I'm missing. Any help appreciated.

I installed the caravel package as well as forked the code. I wanna run the forked code. However, according to the documentation, to run the code you do: caravel runserver -d. This doesn't seem to be running the source code. I'm not very familiar with flask, so some enlightenment would help here.

Looks like you're running multiple installs
pip uninstall caravel
python setup.py develop

from superset.

@mistercrunch thank you. I ended up running it from the build directory, but good to know this.

I actually have the same problem and not running multiple installs for sure. The javascripts/dist/ files are there after running

npm run dev 

in the assets folder and yet the response back for anything in the assets/dist/ is a 404.
@bertomartin How did you run from the build directory?
