Init command not working

[lucasctd]

Describe the issue / bug.

When I type vue init simulatedgreg/electron-vue my-project it first asks me for the App Name, then for App ID, but it stucks on App ID, it neither let me type the App ID nor it let me press enter to use the default.

How can I reproduce this problem?

Run:

npm install -g vue-cli
vue init simulatedgreg/electron-vue my-project

Type the App Name (or use the default) then try to type the App ID.

If visual, provide a screenshot.

Tell me about your development environment.

• Node version: 10.15.3
• NPM version: 6.4.1
• vue-cli version: 2.9.6
• Operating System: Windows 10

I have the same problem. 😥

As it's the first time I use electron-vue, I have no idea whether if my operating system (Windows 10) make it stop working. I recently updated the version of Windows to 10.0.18917.1000 and moved it to the Hyper-V architecture.

I also try it on the Linux system and the Termux on the Android system(just for try), and it works.

I am having the same problem. I am using Ubuntu.

I have tried waiting & changing my network, but all I can do is kill the node process.

This happens on Mac as well. After entering the Application Name, it prompts you for the Application Id and essentially hangs (i.e. you cannot do anything, not even CTRL+C)

I have the same problem on my Mac.

After some research, I found the reason for hanging. #807 #88
It was bug in vue-cli dependency 'Inquirer.js' and it was fixed 10 hours ago.

To download latest 'Inquirer.js' you need to find a global node_modules directory
(for windows: C:/Users/USER_NAME/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules) and delete the entire vue-cli dir.
Then download the vue-cli package again:
npm install -g vue-cli
