SyntaxError: Unexpected token :

Question

I am following Angular 2 quickstart here

I am getting following error on npm start:

angular-quickstart/bs-config.js:2
  "server": {
          ^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token :
    at Object.exports.runInThisContext (vm.js:76:16)
    at Module._compile (module.js:542:28)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:579:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:487:32)

    at Function.Module._load (module.js:438:3)
    at Module.require (module.js:497:17)
    at require (internal/module.js:20:19)

Here is my bs-config.json

{
  "server": {
    "baseDir": "src",
    "routes": {
      "/node_modules": "node_modules"
    }
  }
}

And here is my package.json:

{
  "name": "angular-quickstart",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "npm run lite",
    "lite": "lite-server"
  },

  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "concurrently": "^3.0.0",
    "lite-server": "^2.2.2"
  }
}

I've latest node:

node -v
v7.5.0

And I've latest nam:

npm -v
4.1.2

Here is my directory structure: ls bs-config.js node_modules npm-debug.log package.json src

Answer 1

bs-config.js should be an JSON bs-config.json object.
