mrt add roles gets old version about meteor-roles HOT 11 CLOSED

Hmm, sorry for the trouble. Not sure what's going on there. If you create a new project and add roles, which version gets added?

$ meteor create test99
$ cd test99
$ mrt add roles

from meteor-roles.

Also, this thread seems to suggest that re-running mrt update a bunch of times will eventually get the latest version. :-/

Tracking this issue on meteorite's repo here: oortcloud/meteorite#269

from meteor-roles.

Unfortunately I've tried running mrt update repeatedly, to no avail.

I just noticed that the smart.json file for accounts-admin-ui-bootstrap-3 has the following hard-coded reference. Could this be the cause?

"roles": "1.2.6"

from meteor-roles.

Sorry, meant to add that creating a new project and pulling in just the roles package does correctly get 1.2.8.

from meteor-roles.

I think you cracked the case! Probably is accounts-admin-ui-bootstrap-3 that is causing it in your case.

Could you please confirm by removing that package, doing the mrt update, and seeing if it upgrades correctly on the first try?

from meteor-roles.

More information:

• Editing accounts-admin-ui-bootstrap-3/smart.json to change to 1.2.8 then running mrt update (repeatedly) doesn't change the version.
• running meteor remove roles followed by meteor add roles appears to pull down 1.2.6 as well, based on version value in roles/smart.json

May be some caching going on there with the way mrt works internally. I submitted a PR to the admin-bootstrap repo: hharnisc/meteor-accounts-admin-ui-bootstrap-3#10

from meteor-roles.

OK, I removed both roles and accounts-admin-ui-bootstrap-3, then added them again in that order. That managed to pull in the latest version.

from meteor-roles.

Cool, that confirms the root cause and gives others an easy workaround. Hope the new package system will make these situations clearer.

Thanks!
