Hallo Damien, hopefully you could help me! As a beginner I have some installation problems: I set up a brand new Ubuntu 16.04 and got far (with so deprecation warnings) throw your guide until:
1.) Starting ./createPeerAdminCard.sh: brings some kind of warning: "Need to have composer-cli installed at v0.19 or greater"

2.) "composer archive create -t dir -n ." brings an error:
module.js:549 throw err; Error: Cannot find module './api' ...

I didn´t find any api-files, so whats wrong?

Hey there.

For the first problem, you most likely need to update your composer-cli package version to 0.19. Or install it if you haven't: npm install -g composer-cli or npm update -g composer-cli should get the job done.

I'm not sure about the second one though. Try again with the updated version of composer. If you still have an error, could you show the entire error message?

Note: I updated the article for the new composer network install command.

Good luck!

thank you for the fast answer, so I tried to check all versions on my system, for my opinion, i already had composer-cli installed at v0.19.0 before.
