mowatch fails to use local mocha

[chrishiestand]

node version 4.2.2

to reproduce:

npm install -g mowatch
git clone [email protected]:Oakleon/node-template-project.git
cd node-template-project
npm install
mowatch test -w src
# save file src/index.js

output

mowatch: Watching test/*.js, src/*.js
module.js:339
    throw err;
    ^

if I npm install -g mocha then mowatch works as expected

as an aside, thanks for making this utility. I couldn't get gaze-cli to even approximately work right.

Maybe bin-path doesn't do what I think it does.

Re gaze-cli not working right: that's the precise reason this module was created. 😄

Hey @chrishiestand I am having the same problem! Did anyone find a solution?

[chrishiestand]

@timcash I'm just using global mocha. Probably this wouldn't be too hard to fix and PR if it was important to someone.
