Trying to run the sqlite-to-erd component through npx currently fails:

$ npx sqlite-to-erd data.db > erd.txt
npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found - GET https://registry.npmjs.org/sqlite-to-erd - Not found
npm ERR! 404 
npm ERR! 404  'sqlite-to-erd@*' is not in this registry.

npm ERR! 404 Note that you can also install from a

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in: /home/yala/.npm/_logs/2023-11-12T21_20_27_018Z-debug-0.log

Any ideas what might be wrong? The README says it's available on NPX, why I'm asking.

It is possible to work around this with manually building the dist folder, and running from there, such as with:

ghq get https://github.com/beenotung/quick-erd.git
cd ~/src/github.com/beenotung/quick-erd/
pnpm install
pnpm run build

It is then possible to invoke

node ~/src/github.com/beenotung/quick-erd/dist/cli/sqlite-to-erd.js data.db > erd.txt
