Restore node_modules folder

Question

I accidentally deleted MyProject/node_modules folder from my solution.

Is there any way to recreate this folder?

I tried npm install , npm update but no success.

There is a npm package which will search through your source code and create a list of dependancies.

If you create a new package.json (use npm init) then run dependency-check in your project directory, the file will be populated. Then simply run npm install.
