steal-stache/can missing after add component

[janat08]

if having generator add dependencies is out of scope at least edit the guide https://donejs.com/plugin.html#show-it-off
or have the plugin generator add these dependencies

[matthewp]

Thanks for filing @janat08 ! I don't quite understand the problem. Are you saying that steal-stache and can are removed as dependencies after running donejs add component my-component?

[janat08]

No, nothing ever adds those dependencies.

@janat08 Do you mean the guide should show how to add canjs dependencies, or install those dependencies when generating a plugin?
If yes, what if the plugin doesn't use canjs?

[janat08]

I don't know anymore.

I think what we should confirm is you can:

1. donejs add plugin
2. donejs add component my-component
3. confirm the package.json has can and steal-stache as dependencies
4. confirm the package.json has steal-stache as a steal plugin like https://github.com/canjs/canjs/blob/175036d7376a88eb5fc5e6f550066d64c52493ad/package.json#L219-L221

If those are true, we can re-close.

As listed by @phillipskevin in the steps above, the 3 and 4 step are not running as expected.

I can confirm it adds steal-stache as dependency, not as I mentioned in the comment above.

For the canjs packages dependencies the plugin generator has dependencies option when creating the plugin but it seems is not working.

When I try to generate a plugin with dependencies:

$ donejs add plugin --dependencies can-define can-component can-stache
error: unknown option `--dependencies'

The same with packages option:

$ donejs add plugin --packages can-define can-component can-stache
error: unknown option `--dependencies'
