Issues with Ionic Command

[RDalziel]

When running ionic command without any version overrides & picking up ionic 3.2.0 with Cordova 7.0.1 i'm experiencing issues with lodash dependencies.

The command i'm running is : ionic cordova build --device --release

The error i receive is

When i run the command manually via inline shell scripts i don't receive this error.

Hi there.

I'm not completely understand where are you trying to put that command?
Is that a local computer or cloud?

Please, give me more information.

This is using the VSTS Ionic Command Build Task Extension run on MacInCloud

[vovikdrg]

I have the same problem Also using MacInCloud.

@RDalziel Try to require version 3.4.0 of ionic, the put command as "cordova build android".
It was failing for me with 3.3.0 but today I tried with latest version and it just works

[dpetrishin]

@vovikdrg Yes, you are right about new ionic version. I think it was released just now or maybe 1 day ago :)

@RDalziel I also would like to suggest you to add npm step with npm install command in your build configuration in VSTS.

For me it totally decided the problem.

[RDalziel]

I managed to get further with @vovikdrg suggestion - i've hit other problems with other updated pieces of the ionic framework but it seems this task does not work with ionic 3.3.0 and is resolved in 3.4.0.

@dmitriy-petrishin I do have NPM Install - it's a requirement for the rest of my build

[dpetrishin]

@RDalziel ok, that's good.
I'll close this issue, if you have another questions feel free to re-open or create new issue.

Good luck.
