Error npm WARN unmet dependency in nodejs

0 votes

I have a node package. When I run npm install from the package root, it installs a bunch of things, but then prints several error messages that look like this:

npm WARN unmet dependency /Users/seanmackesey/google_drive/code/explore/generator/node_modules/findup-sync/node_modules/glob requires graceful-fs@'~1.2.0' but will load

I must be confused about what exactly npm install does. If it detects a dependency, shouldn't it install it? Under what conditions does it give me error messages like this, and how can I resolve the dependencies?

Hii @kartik,

Following are the possible solution :

  1. Manually need to install the top-level modules, containing unmet dependencies: npm install findup-sync@0.1.2

  2. Re-structure your package.json. Place all the high-level modules (serves as a dependency for others modules) at the bottom.

  3. Re-run the npm install command.

The problem could be caused by npm's failure to download all the package due to timed-out or something else.

Note: You can also install the failed packages manually as well using npm install findup-sync@0.1.2.

Before running npm install, performing the following steps may help:

  • remove node_modules using rm -rf node_modules/
  • run npm cache clean
Hope it helps!!
Thank You!!
