"$NODE_ENV" was unexpected at this time. Error on npm install (windows) about apollo-universal-starter-kit HOT 12 CLOSED

@Vlasenko thank you for the effort. I will test this out as soon as I get back to office where I use windows. I cant test it right now since my personal computer runs on ubuntu. I will let you know then. By the way this is a cool project..kudos.

@josephdburdick I think right now it is done like you describe :) The start target has been split into start and watch. And instead of using postinstall for Heroku, now heroku-postbuild is utilized instead.

Hi @aylabyuk,

Logs would be helpful, to understand whats happening

from apollo-universal-starter-kit.

Though I bet the problem is caused by commands inside "scripts", e.g. by this construction:
"start": "if [ \"$NODE_ENV\" = production ]; then

@aylabyuk I've pushed commit that might fix this issue. Unfortunately right now I can't test it under Windows. Could you update source code, try under Windows and report back?

@Vlasenko I have updated the code and run npm install --save-dev if-env. still have issue installing

I think now the scripts are Windows-friendly. Please clone the latest version of this repo and check.

from apollo-universal-starter-kit.

Actually slightly changing Getting Started steps, I've managed to make scripts sections easier then it was, yet keeping them cross-platform.

from apollo-universal-starter-kit.

Perhaps instead of using an inline conditional statement there could be separate npm scripts and/or the use of concurrently. I think it would help alleviate ambiguity.

@aylabyuk Could you confirm, if it works for you or no?
