The combination of Typescript, Gulp, and Protractor has resulted in a module error: "Module config.js

I have been experiencing some issues while trying to run Protractor using Gulp. The first two tasks are running smoothly, but when attempting to run the third task, it fails to locate the config.js file stored in the following path on my Windows system:

F:\Selenium2\Protractor\TypeScriptProject\ConvertedJSFiles\config\config.js

gulpfile.js

import * as gulp from 'gulp';
import * as protractor from 'gulp-protractor';

gulp.task('webdriver-update', protractor.webdriver_update);
gulp.task('webdriver-standalone', protractor.webdriver_standalone);
gulp.task('run-prot', function () {
    console.log('About to run the specs...........')

    gulp.src(['ConvertedJSFiles/specs/*.js']).pipe(protractor.protractor({
            configFile: 'ConvertedJSFiles/config/config.js'
    })).on('error',function(e){
            throw e;

    });
});
console.log(protractor.getProtractorDir() + ' is the protractor directory ***');

Answer №1

The issue stemmed from an incorrect directory reference. I was able to pinpoint the problem using the "path" package. Here is the updated file:

import * as gulp from 'gulp';
import * as protractor from 'gulp-protractor';
import * as path from 'path';
gulp.task('webdriver-update', protractor.webdriver_update);
gulp.task('webdriver-standalone', protractor.webdriver_standalone);
gulp.task('run-prot', function () {
    console.log('Preparing to execute the specs...........')
    let srcfiles=path.resolve('../specs/*.js');
    console.log(srcfiles);
    gulp.src([srcfiles]).pipe(protractor.protractor({
            configFile: '../config/config.js'
    })).on('error',function(e){
            throw e;

    });
});
console.log(protractor.getProtractorDir() + ' is the current protractor directory ***');
