yo meanjs not recognizing generated project

Question

I've created a new MeanJS project using Yeoman. It installs just fine. When I want to add a new module using yo meanjs:angular-module mymodule, it tries to create a new project ("Which mean.js version would you like to generate") instead of just adding the new module.

Where should I look for errors?

I'm using node v0.12.7 and npm v2.11.3.

They have removed the module generators for now. – Omar Masad Nov 14 '15 at 07:00 — Omar Masad, Nov 14 '15 at 07:00
How have you tried adding the module to the project? – Zizouz212 Nov 15 '15 at 22:21 — Zizouz212, Nov 15 '15 at 22:21

Yeah, I know this could be confusing, at least when you starting with Meanjs. You probably used a version greater than 0.3.0 (stable) and sub-generators like yo meanjs:angular-module are only available (by that time of writing this) with version 0.3.0 (stable). Look at the red message top at this page: http://meanjs.org/generator.html What's confusing here is that they recommended on their page to install the application using the yeoman but after you did that you expect to be able to use sub-generators... If you want use subs, please use 0.3.0. and I suggest you to use supported Node.js and npm versions (http://meanjs.org/docs/0.3.x/#troubleshooting):

MongoDB
    MongoDB version 2.4.x is supported.
Node.js
    Node version 0.10.x is supported.
npm
    npm version 1.3.x is supported.
