Gulp Error: Cannot find module 'jshint/src/cli'

Question

So I've got a fresh install of El Capitan and I'm giving these task runners another go.

I'm following sitepoint's An introduction to Gulp.js, but I'm stuck on step four, when I try to run gulp jshint I get "Error: Cannot find module 'jshint/src/cli'"

I've no idea what's causing this, which is why I'm asking here. Below are a couple of screen grabs to help with the issue.

As always, I'm eternally grateful for any advice.

Answer 1

You need to install jshint as well, that will sort out the issue.

> npm install --save-dev jshint gulp-jshint

Answer 2

It turns out I need to use npm install --save-dev jshint gulp-jshint instead of npm install gulp-jshint --save-dev as the tutorial stated. Discussion around this was found at https://github.com/spalger/gulp-jshint/issues/131 with massive thanks to @user3042437 for suppling the link.
