Hi there,

I’m trying to create a page using generate command. I’m running the following:

ionic g testname page

But it fails and outputs the following:

Unknown Generator Type
undefined
undefined 'Component’
undefined 'Directive’
undefined 'Page’
undefined 'Pipe’
undefined 'Provider’
undefined ‘Tabs’

I think you have your arguments backwards.

Hi rapropos,

I moved the arguments around:

PS C:\MobileDev\site-manager-app> ionic g page testcom

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, scandir 'C:\MobileDev\site-manager-app\node_modules\ionic-angular\templates\page’

Something is weird in your environment, because ionic g page foo creates things in src/pages/foo in my scratch project.

Any specific directory you suggest me checking?
