[BUG] Error: Cannot find module 'fs-extra'

[develart-projects]

Describe the bug

Tried to install v3.2 using yarn install and always getting fs-extra not found. Including 2 different servers.

`error /usr/share/NetBeansProjects/FarebneObalky/devel/admin/public/static/components/admin-lte: Command failed. Exit code: 1 Command: npm run plugins Arguments: Directory: /usr/share/NetBeansProjects/FarebneObalky/devel/admin/public/static/components/admin-lte Output:

Tried:

• cleaning all caches
• installing global fs-etra using npm
• removing all the lock files, folders, etc.
• tried different servers

..always ending up with this error. I think it's try to process ./Plugins folders, but that one is not present, because it's alredy moved or something like that.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. create package.json and include adminLte 3.2
2. sett up .yarnrc to some different folder, like public/static/components/
3. run yarn install
4. install will fail, even if admin-lte is only package required

Expected behavior Plugins runs without errors.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• AdminLTE Version: [e.g. v3.2]
• Operating System: Fedora / Debian
• Node: v16.14.0
• Npm: 8.3.1
• Yarn: 1.22.15

Small investigation update:

Seems, that package is hardcoded to search for packages within node_modules folder, therefore when changing module folder, it fails.

I just verified that by backlinking public/static/components to node_modules in project root. This is definitely a bug.

[REJack]

Sadly I not use yarn, can you give me a example .yarnrc file with the backlinking setup?

[develart-projects]

Sure:

--modules-folder public/static/components/

[REJack]

I need only put that in the .yarnrc? 😄

[develart-projects]

Yep, thats all :)

Meantime I "fixed" it by symlink to the node_modules, but all points to the harcoded paths in Plugin script.

[REJack]

I tested it and sadly I found no way to fix it 😞 I guess your workaround is the only option fornow, may someone knows better these options and can help 😄.

I hope this is not buggy with v4 too.
