.../node_modules/vuepress-jsdoc/node_modules/.bin/vue-docgen: not found

[diegoazh]

Describe the bug
I found the above error in the last version, for some reason vue-docgen-api is not installed inside of the node_modules of the vuepress-jsdoc, I'm not sure why but when it try to use it to generate the docs in line 145 of cmds/index.js it isn't there.
I add prints to the modules inside of the node_modules in vuepress-jsdoc and the nodeModulesPath and rootProjectFolder variables in the first and second screenshots in the last screenshot you can see the error .../.bin/vue-docgen module not found.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
install vuepress-jsdoc and run the command to generate the documentation.

Expected behavior
Works in the same way as version 3.2.0 worked.

Node (please complete the following information):

• Node-Version: 14.17.1

Additional context
I had installed vue-docgen-api and vue-docgen-cli in my devDependencies but, I remove them from my devDependencies and I made a fresh install with a new package-lock.json generated and the error is still happening.

I think maybe you should find the executable on the node_modules of vuepress-jsdoc and if it doesn't found the executable found in node_modules of the main repository because in my case even removing it from my devDependencies when I make an install vue-docgen-cli is installed inside the root node_modules instead of the vuepress-jsdoc node_modules as you can see in the following image

Thanks for reporting. It would be nice, if you can attach a zip or something else, with a minimal reproduceable example.

Hi @ph1p sorry for my delay I was very busy these days, here is the repository https://github.com/diegoazh/vuepress-jsdoc-issue, use the script npm run gen:api:docs

[ph1p]

Thank you! Now it should work. I also dropped 3 dependencies. Version 3.7.1.

[diegoazh]

Excellent, thank you @ph1p I will test it this weekend.

@diegoazh In the meantime I have rewritten a lot :D It would be great if you could check if 4.0.4 works too.

@ph1p, yes I installed the last version and it works like a charm, thank you so much for the effort 🎊 🎉
