"error: no such package: 'roles'" about meteor-roles HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @Karol86,

Thanks for this. You could have reopened Issue #14 but opening a new issue is fine too. :-)

Edit: Whoops, you're right! Not related to #14 !

Hi @Karol86,

OK, I retested using Meteor 0.6.5.1 and it looks like everything is ok so that's good.

I think I spotted the issue though; you are running the app with the 'meteor' command instead of the 'mrt' command.

Since meteor-roles is a Meteorite package, the normal "meteor" command doesn't know where to look to get it so that's why you're seeing the, "error: no such package: 'roles'" message in Console 1. When using Meteorite smart packages you have to use the 'mrt' command instead (which is basically a wrapper around "meteor" which just knows where to find the community contributed packages).

I'll update the readme to be clearer as I'm sure others will have the same issue, especially if meteor-roles is their first exposure to Meteorite.

So please try running your app using "mrt" and let me know if that works.

Hi @alanning!
Running app using mrt command solved this issue. I've checked Atmosphere doc and there is clearly stated that application have to be started by mrt command. My fault that I didn't RTFM.
Thanks!

Hi @Karol86,

Glad that fixed it. I updated the readme to hopefully be clearer: https://github.com/alanning/meteor-roles#usage

RTM'ing is important but I appreciate you opening the issue. I want to make this package as accessible to everyone as possible and it is certainly not obvious to run 'mrt' if this is your first exposure to Meteorite.

If you see any other areas where the documentation could improve, please let me know. Or better yet, send me a pull request with a suggested change!
