Version

4.2.3

Reproduction link

https://pastebin.com/5ciYS1uq

Environment info

System:
    OS: Windows 10 
    CPU: (8) x64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8550U CPU @ 1.8GHz
Binaries:
    Node: 12.16.1
    Yarn: 1.15.2
    npm: 6.13.4
npmGlobalPackages:
   @vue/cli: Not Found

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run npm install -g @vue/cli.
  2. Run npm list -g --depth=0.

What is expected?

Running npm list -g --depth=0 shouldn't show errors. Also, running vue info should show see that @vue/cli is installed globally.

What is actually happening?

Running npm install -g @vue/cli displays multiple warnings.
Then, running npm list -g --depth=0 lists the global packages fine but then shows errors. Also, running vue info shows @vue/cli: not found, although npm list -g --depth=0 lists it.

Running vue create hello-world after the above installation works fine, and then cding into the folder and running npm run serve also works fine, but I'd like to know what to do with those errors.

cmd output

PS C:\Users\MyUser\Desktop\New folder (2)\hello-world-2> npm install -g @vue/cli

The first deprecation warning: tracked at #5220
The second: tracked at #5125

The rest is fine, it's an optional dependency after all. The cause is that the fsevents package is only available for macOS.

As for the vue info issue, it's a bug in https://github.com/tabrindle/envinfo

@sodatea:

I'm confused: The fsevents error appears because of @vue/cli installation. I presume it shouldn't cause errors regardless of the OS. So why does it depends on a macOS-only file? How should one make the error disappear on Windows?

It's not an error. It's a warning.

So why does it depends on a macOS-only file

Please refer to the documentation of fsevents:

Most packages with the "watch" functionality in the Node.js ecosystem (such as webpack, jest, etc.) would depend on chokidar, which optionally depends on fsevents. "Optionally" means it still works without that dependency.

How should one make the error disappear on Windows?

I don't know. It comes from npm, and it's not an error.

@sodatea, I now figured I forgot to add the error message that appears when running - sorry for that (they are already shown in the linked pastebin, but I now added them into the end of my original post).

So, given the npm ERR, would you suggest something different than your last comment?

sodatea commented Mar 10, 2020

I've taken a closer look at these messages.
The weird thing is that on my Windows machine there aren't so many warnings. Also, packages like abbrev and ansi-regex aren't dependencies of fsevents, so the directory structure in the warning messages does not look right.

I think it's more like an npm problem.
Please try to run npm cache verify and then reinstall the package with npm i -g @vue/cli.
If that doesn't work, run npm cache clean -f and npm i -g @vue/cli.
If that still doesn't work, run npm i -g @vue/cli --no-optional.

@sodatea, the error persists after doing what you've suggested.

The strange thing is that the folders listed in that error do exist (also, I run the cmd as Admin) - I can just copy-paste the path given in the error to navigate to them.

Any other idea?

sodatea commented Mar 10, 2020

It's a common npm issue with no clear resolution npm/npm#17444

What about npm uninstall -g @vue/cli first?
Also worth trying installing without the Admin priviledge, because it could be a permission issue when accessing the .DELETE files.

@sodatea, tried that, the error is still there 😞

@sodatea , I decided to "solve" it by calling npm init inside the folders mentioned in the error, and just create a dummy package.json.

@HeyJude1 I meet the same issue, but I found the directory "@vue/cli/node_modules/fsevents" is empty(even it include another empty directory "node_modules"), so I just remove the directory and the npm error message is gone, you can try it.

@HeyJude1 Do you have your OS setup on a NVMe drive?

kayankay commented May 2, 2020

Just to offer some confirmation to @sodatea recommendation, I uninstalled @vue/cli, did the npm cache verify and then tried npm i -g @vue/cli --no-optional and it has removed the errors I was seeing places like npm list. So it sounds like there are a few options in this thread for future google searches.
