npm启动失败，因为缺少模块'minizlib'

Question

I cloned a react-native project from github to work on, but npm start fails and reads this:

Error: Cannot find module 'minizlib'
Require stack:
- /usr/local/lib/node_modules/expo-cli/node_modules/tar/lib/pack.js

I have tried installing and reinstalling minizlib, npm, and node, and also a handful of possible solutions found in similar questions here, but have had no success. Any help would be appreciated.

Os: Ubuntu 18.04.2

Edit: I'm not quite sure what happened but it does seem to working. I opened the project today to see if anything changed and received some warnings about vulnerabilities. To fix them i reinstalled expo-cli and now all seems to be working correctly.

Answer 1

npm install -g npm@latest (to update npm).

rm -rf node_modules (to remove the existing modules).

npm install (to re-install the project dependencies).

Answer 2

Your package.json files contains this,

{
  "main": "node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "expo start",
    "android": "expo start --android",
    "ios": "expo start --ios",
    "eject": "expo eject"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "braces": "^2.3.1",
    "expo": "^32.0.0",
    "firebase": "^6.1.0",
    "react": "16.5.0",
    "react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-32.0.0.tar.gz",
    "react-navigation": "^3.11.0",
    "ws": "^3.3.3"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-preset-expo": "^5.0.0"
  },
  "private": true
}

package.json file don't have entry for minizlib package. Also node_modules folder don't have minizlib folder.

Probably missing to install the same, you can do this,

npm install minizlib --save  //here `--save` will create entry into `package.json` file

After installing this package you need to restart your app.
