Command "." not found when running "npm run tslint" #530

Describe the issue

When doing the getting started guide https://tableau.github.io/extensions-api/docs/trex_getstarted.html
the npm run build process fails. It's because of npm run tslint

Error:

> [email protected] tslint
> ./node_modules/.bin/tslint --config ./tslint.json ./Samples-Typescript/*/*.ts*

Der Befehl "." ist entweder falsch geschrieben oder
konnte nicht gefunden werden.

Translated error message: The command "." is either misspelled or
could not be found.

Things I have tried:

  • using both extensions-api-sdk: 1.10.0 and 1.9.0
  • reproduce the situation and same error on a windows10 machine of a colleague
  • using git clone instead of the zip download
  • restart
  • deleting node_modules and execute npm i again
  • checking if the file in node_modules exists (does)
  • uninstalling possible global tslint installation
  • I tried to execute ./node_modules/.bin/tslint --config ./tslint.json ./Samples-Typescript/*/*.ts* myself and got an windows permission error which directed me to this page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies?view=powershell-7.3
    Once I executed Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope LocalMachine in PowerShell I did't get the error when executing manually. But the error persists when executing through npm run build

Version information:

  • Tableau version: 2023.03
  • OS: Win 11home 22H2 build22621.2428
  • VsCode: 1.84.1 (user setup)
  • Node.js: 18.15.0
  • V8: 11.4.183.29-electron.0
  • extensions-api-sdk: 1.10.0

Steps to reproduce (please include a code snippet, if possible):

  1. Go to https://tableau.github.io/extensions-api/docs/trex_getstarted.html
  2. Do the guide
  3. npm run build

I think there is an issue with my dev setup and would appreciate any help. Thanks!
