Could you please provide a link to a repo I can look at?

[Kamil Kisiela]

It's the private repo but I'm going to reproduce it in a moment.

[Kamil Kisiela]

@pbastowski Here it is

[pbastowski]

I've made changes to your repo to make it work. There were quite a few changes, so, you'll want to read the commit logs to see what I did.

Please give me push rights to the demo repo on github and I will push my changes to it.

[Kamil Kisiela]

Ok, you can check now. There were few errors in app.js but the unexpected token error was right before them. So I didn't want to push new commits with fixes, thought it was unrelated.

[pbastowski]

Done. I hope this helps you.

In summary:

• removed babel.json, as it is not needed
• removed babel.rc as it's not needed
• removed mostly empty app.js in client folder
• moved app.js from root to client folder. client code in the root folder will cause errors unless wrapped in Meteor.isClient()
• user var {} = angular2-now instead const
• added options to set vm as the default controller name
• also importing bootstrap
• using angular2-now@1.0.2, which is the correct version to use with Meteor 1.2 - this was the main reson for the "Unexpected token" error
• added "angular-meteor" dependency to SetModule: SetModule('app', ['angular-meteor']);
• templateUrl must also specify the folder name "client/", as in templateUrl: 'client/app.html'

[Kamil Kisiela]

@pbastowski Yeah, I build it as fast as I can so I didn't think about moving it to /client etc.

So basically, unexpected token error was caused by using not proper version of package? For Meteor 1.2+ I have to use angular2-now in version 1.0.0+?

[pbastowski]

Yes.

Any specific reason you added babel.json and babel.rc?

[Kamil Kisiela]

I think it is just a leftover. I was using your ecmascript-extra couple weeks ago.

[pbastowski]

OK, cool.

Closing the issue.

[Kamil Kisiela]

@pbastowski My app was working right, but then I updated packages below and got error:

pbastowski:angular-babel@1.0.6 to 1.0.7
angular@1.3.0 to 1.3.1
pbastowski:angular2-now@0.3.15 to 0.3.17 without changes

I will use angular2-now 1.0+ version so you can close issue.

[pbastowski]

Do you mean to say that meteor update gives you "angular2-now@0.3.15" automatically?

[Kamil Kisiela]

I set @0.3.17 manually to one of my package

[pbastowski]

Why not use @1.0.2? Are you using Meteor 1.1?

[Kamil Kisiela]

I recently moved my app to Meteor 1.2. Ok, now I'm going to use @1.0.2.

Thanks for your help and angular2-now :)

[pbastowski]

You are welcome.
