I have the following dependency array in package.json : dependencies: { doT: git://github.com/nick-jonas/doT.git#cbc7041b646a79cca1034820db09167407d2f988, lodash:

I have the following dependency array in package.json:

"dependencies": {
    "doT": "git://github.com/nick-jonas/doT.git#cbc7041b646a79cca1034820db09167407d2f988",
    "lodash": "latest",
    "commander": "latest",
    "minimatch": "0.2.9",
    "prompt": "latest",
    "mkdirp": "latest",
    "fs-extra": ">=0.3.2",
    "shelljs": ">=0.1.0",
    "cheerio": ">=0.10.5",
    "readdirp": ">=0.2.1"
  }

Note the first dep:

"doT": "git://github.com/nick-jonas/doT.git#cbc7041b646a79cca1034820db09167407d2f988"

This works with npm. When running npm install it will place the correct version of doT into my node_modules directory. It will however give this error message when Travis-CI runs the test script:

227  vows test/*.js --spec
228
229
230  module.js:340
231    throw err;
232          ^
233  Error: Cannot find module 'doT'

243    at Module.require (module.js:362:17)
244  npm ERR! Test failed.  See above for more details.
245  npm ERR! not ok code 0

Running this command locally vows test/*.js --spec also works, so I’m assuming it’s a problem with Travis-CI grabbing hashed-URL dependencies.

Anyone else have a problem similar to this?

    Taking a peek at your TravisCI task that failed, it seems like it did actually successfully install doT@1.0.0:

    https://travis-ci.org/nick-jonas/assemblejs/jobs/4115442/#L188

    If I look at the dot.js project repository, it looks like the doT package.json file has the name listed as “dot” instead of “doT”.

    I’d try changing require('doT') to require('dot') in writer.js (or wherever else it’s used).

    It looks like this might be a case-sensitivity issue, which can be particularly annoying to deal with the npm world.
