get-object-path issues + proposal

[dhritzkiv]

Seems that some of my modules rely on ampersand-view@v8.*. However, this version of ampersand-view relies on get-object-path@v0.0.2 (which was unpublished). Any chance for a "maintenance/patch" release (v8.0.2) of ampersand-view that depends on get-object-path that was republished as v0.0.3?

Not sure if that'll fix install woes.

Glad someone else is also experiencing this issue.

I'm trying to deploy on Modulus and it is giving me an error about get-object-path as well because of Ampersand-View. Does anyone know a work around for this?

I managed to get them installing by:

• rm -rf node_modules
• npm install --save ampersand-X@latest
  • where X is the ampersand module name
  • I ran this manually, one-by-one for each ampersand module in my package.json
• npm install
  • to retrieve the other, non-ampersand modules

Not sure why trying to npm install --save ampersand-X@latest ampersand-Y@latest ampersand-Z@latest ... didn't work.

YMMV, @KayBeSee

@dhritzkiv, if you want to stage a patched 8.x version, i'd be happy to publish it

FTR, the current version (even at the time of issue filing) uses lodash.get

Yep. However, non-official ampersand modules may be stuck on ampersand-view < v8.0, and won't install properly (as get-object-path fails)

But I'm now rethinking the efficacy of creating and publishing a patched version of v8, as the majority of 3rd-party ampersand modules may be using versions older than 8: v7, v6, etc. A patch for v8 wouldn't address those versions.

I don't believe there's a way to completely and gracefully recover from the npm module liberation situation. Best to just move on.

@dhritzkiv, good point, i didn't consider that!
