Angular Cli not generating angular-cli.json

Question

I'm trying to make a new pwa and I need to write things in angular-cli.json. I'm using

Angular CLI: 1.7.4
Node: 8.11.1
OS: win32 x64
Angular: 5.2.10.

After ng new pwaapp --service worker there's not an angular-cli.json file in the project folder.

Every idea is a breath of fresh air. thx

Did you check on my below answer? If you are still missing the file, post your ls from your project root along with package.json file. — Anand

I'm wondering if you are creating Angular 6 and not Angular 5.x, as Angular 6 don't have angular-cli.json anymore. Its angular.json. See if you have this file. If you are creating a new project at this time, Angular 6 is the latest stable with some improvements to PWA as well.

Here is a doc if you want to create an app first and then add PWA options after creating.

Well to start you are not using the command correctly.

You are using ng new pwaapp --service worker while you should be using ng new pwaapp --service-worker which should generate an .angular-cli.json file.

If not, then see if you @angular/cli global package is up to date.

If nothing works, add the the file yourself as referenced here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/45705204/3123228

It was a typo. i'm using 'ng new pwaapp --service-worker', and still does not work. i'm gonna do it manually, and maybe it will work. thx

Yep, you were right, angular.json was the thing i was searching for

@hyena I referred to angular.json in the below answer. Wondering why it’s commented in this answer and marked as the accepted one ?? ☹️
