Problem

Whenever I execute oclif-dev pack (with npx or local) I get

Of course I have a package-lock.json at the root of the cli directory prior to executing the command, but pack just deletes it and complains it's missing after.

I'm experiencing this issue as well. I tried setting the unchangeable flag on the package-lock.json file to see if that'd fix the issue, but it seems the package-lock.json is being renamed npm-shrinkwrap.json, which fails with the unchangeable flag.

Hello,

This issue is du to prepack script (in package.json), there is this command: npm shrinkwrap which rename package-lock.json to npm-shrinkwrap.json.

A quick workaround is to restore package-lock.json after npm shrinkwrap:

...
"prepack": "rm -rf lib && tsc && oclif-dev manifest && oclif-dev readme && npm shrinkwrap && git checkout -- package-lock.json",
...

[jdx]

npm should use the shrinkwrap file in place of the lockfile though, no?

[bchatard]

Yes, npm use shrinkwrap for publishing module but the pack command fail because package-lock.json is missing.

We need both files

Diff between shrinkwrap & package-lock

[dprothero]

I am getting this error as well, on Windows. Seems we shouldn't be deleting package-lock.json at all, as you want that in your git repository.

[joelgetaction]

I am getting this error as well. It is definitely oclif pack that is deleting this file (through one of its dependencies). Is there an ETA on a fix? :-)

[oclif-bot]

🎉 This issue has been resolved in version 1.19.1 🎉

The release is available on:

• npm package (@latest dist-tag)
• GitHub release

Your semantic-release bot 📦🚀

[joelgetaction]

Thanks for making this release. But it does not seem to fix the problem.

bash> npm list @oclif/dev-cli

bash> oclif-dev pack --targets=linux-arm64
... normal output ...
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat '/Users/joel/src/getaction/RumbleSeatLiveCLI/npm-shrinkwrap.json'

I even tried blowing away node_modules and resetting the npm cache. No help. It's not working because now it's deleting another file ...

So now instead of package-lock.json being erased, it's npm-shrinkwrap.json that's being erased. Any tips?

Thanks! :-)

[joelgetaction]

Well, actually the error message says Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat '/Users/joel/src/getaction/RumbleSeatLiveCLI/npm-shrinkwrap.json' but git says that the pack is still deleting package-lock.json so something is wrong with the patch to 1.19.1 ...

[jdx]

remove the bit in package.json that's deleting the shrinkwrap file and it should work after you run npm install && npm shrinkwrap

this is only required for existing CLIs

[jdx]

The issue was me not understanding that npm shrinkwrap deletes the package-lock.json so I was deleting the shrinkwrap after packing. I changed it to keep the shrinkwrap around and now it seems to work correctly.

[jdx]

package-lock.json should not be in the project, there should only be a shrinkwrap file. This way when people npm install -g your CLI it will respect the shrinkwrap.

Though dev-cli now will support either.

[NipunaPrashan]

@jdxcode do you have an answer to fix the above issue.

$ oclif-dev -v
@oclif/dev-cli/1.19.4

$ git status
deleted: package-lock.json

$ oclif-dev pack:deb
..
..
..
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat 'xxxx/cli/npm-shrinkwrap.json'

I've added
"prepack": "npm shrinkwrap && rm -rf lib && tsc -b && oclif-dev manifest && oclif-dev readme",
and did the trick

[solmon]

I've added
"prepack": "npm shrinkwrap && rm -rf lib && tsc -b && oclif-dev manifest && oclif-dev readme",

Thank you @lordrip
you saved my mid night oil.. it worked as of now.
