The point of highlight is line Exception in callback of async function: Error: Cannot find module '../build/Release/sharp.node' . The issue is also available on this link

Then I also tried npm install -g sharp , still no success, any suggestions?

Answer 1

我使用命令npm install --save sharp in project root folder解决了它。
