Load components from local node_modules about astro HOT 12 CLOSED

Hey, thanks for filing! Going to try and look into this this week. Thanks so much for putting up with early bugs like this :)

from astro.

I have an example working, will post in a minute.

Ok I can confirm it works,
Something should have changed regarding this between the 0.0.9 and the 0.0.12 In very good day.

Thanks.

Hi,

If I may add some investigation with latest version of astro, I cannot source any component outside of the astro root.

It would be really helpful in mono repo to source components from another directory
Sourcing from node_modules and package would be also really nice.

Thanks

Hi @matthewp we are stuck here because our components live outside of the repo due the exact nature of what we want to demonstrate. Is there a way to fix it this week? I'm not trying to urge the situation, we simply running out of time on our end...

from astro.

Yeah sorry, I'll give this a look and update this issue.

I get this error when I try, is that what you get @gqio ?

Error: Unexpected: Unscanned package import couldn't be built/resolved.

from astro.

Yes, I tried with configuring the packageRoot with snowpack, but no luck.

Maybe I missed something.

from astro.

Here's an example: https://github.com/matthewp/astro-local-project-example

The key is adding a snowpack.config.js and setting workspaceRoot. Snowpack doesn't work well with locally installed packages without that. Something we should fix in Snowpack.

That's weird I tried exactly the same thing according to the doc of snowpack (took me a while to understand :))

I just tried your repository, it works also with npm link.

from astro.

I will give another shot with a more complex repo/components base
I have components in different languages, hope it will work too.

Do you have an hint if snowpack or astro will watch and update those dependenies?
I mean if I change a file inside the node_modules, does snowpack with its cache reflect the change while astro is loading the page during the build.

from astro.

It should, yeah.
