Any chance to update deps on this project?

Tried getting this project running on my box for a friend, but ran into a handful of issues. I got most of the way there, however running into this bug now:

I tried different variations of installing compass, but still getting the error. It could be related to this issue, but I'm not super well versed in some of these specific technologies so I can't say for sure after spending about ~15 minutes on this.

yeoman/generator-angular#1172

Any help / guidance appreciated, thanks!

Also, here's the list of commands I ran, in order (with various grunt / grunt serves sprinkled in). Maybe that gives some insight as well.

git clone [email protected]:RevelationOnline/skillplanner.git
brew install grunt
npm install grunt --save-dev
npm install load-grunt-tasks
npm install time-grunt
npm install
grunt install
brew install bower
bower install
npm install -g compass
npm install karma grunt-karma karma-phantomjs-launcher karma-jasmine
npm install grunt-contrib-compass --save-dev
npm install -g sass

It's been ages since I've had to debug this project, nor do I remember how it works, so grain of salt with my comments.

gem install compass
gruntjs/grunt-contrib-watch#294 (comment)

That's a completely empty suggestion though, I'm going off of nothing more than a Google search.

I pulled out my old copy and didn't have any issues (W10), but again, I have everything already set up, including compass.

I updated my fork: https://github.com/Sphazz/skillplanner
But that shouldn't solve your problem.

A lot of the dependencies for this project are either deprecated, or so far out of date they are completely incompatible with their most recently updated versions. So updating dependencies would probably cause more harm then good.

This type of project needs to be re-imagined with React or Angular 7. Things have come a long way since this was originally conceived. The conversion script could be very easily reused through.

O wow - that did actually work! 🙌 Thanks for putting in the time to look at this. Really appreciate it. 🙏 Have a great week!

I do not currently have intentions to keep this updated. If someone wants to file a PR to update the repo to a working state I'll happily merge it.

Sounds good - thanks for the help! Will close this issue.
