Gulp & npm not found after following installation steps

[ferrybig]

Trying to follow the installation steps, this happened:

1. npm install -g mean-cli

   This works

2. mean init mean-application

   This one properly installs a mean application

3. cd <NameOfYourApp> && npm install

   Seems to install all packages needed

4. mean package <NameOfYourPackage>

    Throws:

    module.js:472
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module 'npm'

Also the installed project doesn't have a gulp file to run the Gulp command. I also tried in my local machine this problem is there for me also.

Gulp and npm need to be installed globally . Maybe the prerequisites section in the readme is unclear. You should probably run npm install -g gulp Lior

@liorkesos in my case I have already installed gulp globally. Problem is there is no any gulp file inside the project to run the gulp command.
