Gruntfile in wporg-plugins theme refers to script removed from wp-api package

[diddledani]

The Gruntfile.js in the wporg-plugins theme has this block:

		shell: {
			build: {
				command: './node_modules/wpapi/lib/data/update-default-routes-json.js --endpoint=https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-json --output=./client'
			}
		},

The file it references, update-default-routes-json.js, is not in the distribution of wp-api on NPM since version 1.2.0. The definition in the package.json is to pull versions matching ^1.0.0 which means that 1.2.0 will be pulled in new or cleaned setups of the meta-environment. When the newer version is installed via npm, such as will occur for anyone setting up a new meta-environment system, the wporg-plugins theme build process will fail.

The removal/move of the script in wp-api was in ​this commit.

Thank you @diddledan for raising this. I had the same issue too. I've attached attachment:4173.1.patch​ hoping to fix this. Can you help test?

• Upgraded wapi package to 1.2.1
• Replaced grunt task from shell to curl to download '​https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-json' on build.
• Combined grunt watch to build Sass and JS.
