Trying to implement nebula project is throwing an error: The splatting operator '@' cannot be used to reference variables in an expression

Question

I am following the instructions on this page: https://qlik.dev/tutorials/build-a-chatbot-using-the-qlik-sense-natural-language-api

I am actually getting an error which says the following:

    At line:1 char:5
npx @nebula.js/cli create mashup hello-saas
+     ~~~~~~~
The splatting operator '@' cannot be used to reference variables in an expression. '@nebula' can be used only as an argument to a command. To reference variables in an expression use '$nebula'.
    + CategoryInfo          : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : SplattingNotPermitted

Answer 1

This because you are running the command in PowerShell. You cant use @ so easily there.

Two options:

• run the command in cmd
• or, in PowerShell, wrap the @ command in quotes. like this: npx "@nebula.js/cli" create mashup hello-saas
