npm package broken

[silverbucket]

I installed blacksmith as described:

$ sudo npm install blacksmith -g

However when I run it I get errors:

$ blacksmith
Rendering: /home/nkj/code
Error rendering: /home/nkj/code
{ [Error: ENOENT, open '/home/nkj/code/.blacksmith'] errno: 34, code: 'ENOENT', path: '/home/nkj/code/.blacksmith' }
[ 'Error: ENOENT, open \'/home/nkj/code/.blacksmith\'' ]

The same here.

It is not just the npm package. Building from source gives me the same.

But the problem happens only because you don't have a structured blacksmith directory (with content, layouts and the .blacksmith file).

I get the same error message, are there no development done in this project?

According to the documentation this project would have suited my documentation needs but I can't get it to run? Any recommendations on what to use instead with a similar feature set?

@DanielSundberg This is abandoned, but perhaps you will find what you want in these forks.

Likewise.

Rendering: blacksmithy
Error rendering: blacksmithy
{ [Error: ENOENT, open 'blacksmithy/.blacksmith'] errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT', path: 'blacksmithy/.blacksmith' }
[ 'Error: ENOENT, open \'blacksmithy/.blacksmith\'',
  '    at Error (native)' ]

Will check the forks.
