Meteor 0.8 and Jade

Question

I'm trying to upgrade my application to Meteor 0.8 which uses the new Blaze templating engine.

$ meteor update
my-app: updated to Meteor 0.8.0.

$ mrt update

The thing is that I'm using Jade and after running meteor, it prompted:

While building the application:
<runJavaScript-38>:167:38: Object #<Object> has no method 'compile' (compiling modules/homepage/client/views/_homepage.jade)
  at Object.html_scanner._handleTag (<runJavaScript-38>:167:38)
  at Object.html_scanner.scan (<runJavaScript-38>:118:20)
  at handler (<runJavaScript-38>:526:30)

I've seen in the new blog post that I needed to add jade with meteorite.

mrt add jade

But now, by running Meteor, the following error appears:

=> Started proxy.

I do not see where the error comes from.

Answer 1

It seems that the problem is coming from the belt-jade-handlebars package. I don't really know what is happening but I guess that it is not up to date with the new Blaze engine. Just remove it if you can.

mrt remove belt-jade-handlebars.
