Error when running npx iconfont-init: Cannot find module 'fs-extra' #17
Description
When trying to run npx iconfont-init in my React project after installing react-iconfont-cli using npm, I encountered the following error:
Error: Cannot find module 'fs-extra'
Require stack:
- .../node_modules/react-iconfont-cli/commands/createJson.js
To resolve this issue, I installed the fs-extra module manually using npm i fs-extra, and after that, the command worked as expected.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a new React project or use an existing one.
- Install
react-iconfont-cliby runningnpm install react-iconfont-cli --save-dev. - Attempt to run
npx iconfont-initin the project directory.
Expected Behavior:
npx iconfont-init should run without any errors and initiate the icon font setup successfully.
Actual Behavior:
The command throws an error: Cannot find module 'fs-extra'.
Proposed Solution:
It appears that the fs-extra module is required by the react-iconfont-cli package, but it was not installed automatically as a dependency. To resolve this issue, users should manually install fs-extra using the following command:
npm install fs-extra
After installing fs-extra, running npx iconfont-init should work as expected.
