blocks-react-renderer [bug]: Can't install blocks-react-renderer package if husky isn't installed

What version of `@strapi/blocks-react-renderer` are you using?

Npm Version: 10.5.2
Node version: 20.13.1
React version: 18.3.1
blocks-react-renderer: 1.0.1

What's Wrong?

Once I do npm install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer react react-dom command inside FE project that doesn't have husky installed as a dependency I get the following error:

npm install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer react react-dom
npm ERR! code 127
npm ERR! path <PATH_TO_THE_FE_PROJECT>/node_modules/@strapi/blocks-react-renderer
npm ERR! command failed
npm ERR! command sh -c husky install
npm ERR! sh: husky: command not found

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in: <PATH_TO_THE_LOG>

If I do npm install husky --save-dev and run npm install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer react react-dom command again everything is installed correctly.

To Reproduce

Create a new project with vite: npm create vite@latest demo-project --template react-ts

Navigate to the project directory: cd demo-project

Run npm install: npm install

Try to install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer: npm install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer react react-dom

Expected Behaviour

@strapi/blocks-react-renderer should be installed without having husky as a dev dependency

I faced this issue yesterday, try to do these: 1- Open your terminal and run: npm install -g husky 2- Navigate to your project directory and run: npm install husky --save-dev 3- try again to install the command: npm install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer

Yes, I've included that information in my report although the step for installing the husky globally isn't necessary, it's enough to install the husky as a dev dep.

Hi all, any update on this? I'm experiencing the same problem. Would prefer to not to need to install husky.

This project is using pinst which updates the package.json to _postinstall so the script doesn't run: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@strapi/blocks-react-renderer?activeTab=code

In the package.json it is renamed properly, but npm view @strapi/blocks/react-renderer scripts shows the unrenamed script

techno@TechnoLT:~$ npm view @strapi/blocks-react-renderer scripts
{
  lint: 'eslint . --ext .cjs,.js,.ts,.tsx',
  test: 'yarn run test:ts && yarn run test:unit',
  build: 'pack-up build',
  check: 'pack-up check',
  watch: 'pack-up watch',
  prepack: 'pinst --disable',
  'test:ts': 'tsc --noEmit',
  'lint:fix': 'yarn lint --fix',
  postpack: 'pinst --enable',
  'test:unit': 'jest',
  postinstall: 'husky install',
  prepublishOnly: 'yarn build'
}
techno@TechnoLT:~$

This might've been a bug in npm, so a republish on the latest npm version may fix it

I encountered this problem on version 20 of node, switched to 16 and everything installed without problems

npm install --ignore-scripts @strapi/blocks-react-renderer worked for me, but it's still annoying.

does anyone have a solution?

I try all above solutions none of them work for me. Try these step to resolve:

npm install husky --save-dev
npm install @strapi/blocks-react-renderer --legacy-peer-deps (react & react-dom, dependenies are already installed. So no need again)

Boom it works!

Strapi team should remove this from production builds.

All the methods described above aren't a real solution to the problem. Wasting CPU time on installing unnecessary dependencies and keeping track of their versions is madness.
