docker build failed about add-typescript-to-cypress HOT 8 CLOSED

Ran into this issue while building a docker image from someone else's repo. It seems that this package is assuming that cypress/plugins/index.js already exists

note overwrites existing cypress/plugins/index.js file once. In other installs looks for file cypress/plugins/cy-ts-preprocessor.js to avoid overwriting.

Usually this is not the case when building a docker image.

Seems there are two ways to resolve it:

If you are just trying to create a production docker image (not trying to run tests) then you should use npm install --only=prod and make sure @bahmutov/add-typescript-to-cypress package is installed into devDependencies section of package.json.

OR

Add RUN ["mkdir","-p","cypress/plugins"] to your Dockerfile to create the cypress plugins folder before running npm install

I have the same issue. Any solution?

Getting this issue specifically while trying to implement caching of node_modules in AWS CodeBuild. Hopefully the following lines can help indicate the problem there:

I'm assuming this has something to do with using symlinking, then path.join and it not actually getting into the source folder.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

@rjriel is this the same problem? I don't see how it relates.

from add-typescript-to-cypress.

I think the solution by @ccrockett in #57 (comment) is the best - either don't install dev dependencies like this one, or have the cypress folder there (since it should be present to run Cypress tests).

@bahmutov sorry, I may have been confusing, it is the same issue. My docker build fails and I get the error about the cypress folder not being found. My explanation was more detailing how the error in my case is likely due to symlinking and thinking maybe there's a better solution than using path.join with a bunch of ../ to get to the project directory. I'll do some research and maybe submit a PR
