Additional context or description

I started a new react + next project and chose the nest.js as the backend service. Then I try to connect them through setting up application proxies. Here are the commands in the docs:

nx g @nx/node:app <node-app> --frontendProject my-react-app
nx g @nx/nest:app <nest-app> --frontendProject my-react-app
nx g @nx/express:app <express-app> --frontendProject my-react-app

I ran 'nx g @nx/nest:app --frontendProject my-react-app' this command. But it throw an error

NX Cannot find module 'nx/src/plugins/package-json-workspaces'

I'm not sure which step I did is wrong. Thanks. Node version is v21.1.0.

Well this is frustrating. I am getting this same error and have no clue what to do about it.

using npx nx g @nx/node:application <app name> --dry-run

Was able to fix it locally for me by editing node_modules/@nx/jest/src/plugins/plugin.js line 12 to be:

const package_json_workspaces_1 = require("nx/plugins/package-json-workspaces");

definitely a hacky solution, though.

it appears @nx/jest is looking in the wrong directory for package-json-workspaces since it does not appear to be located at nx/src/plugins but instead at just nx/plugins
