Could npm shrinkwrap be a solution? The cordova-coho docs mention shrinkwrap was avoided previously because it was "not mature", but it has apparently improved a lot in v3. According to a comment [1] in another related issue it has solved this problem in v3. I'm not totally familiar with the platform versioning and packaging strategy though so I may be missing something.

The issue is that NPM does not pack sub-dependencies of bundled dependencies into resultant archive. This only affects flatten dependency trees, but we already switched to that in platform repos. As an example, we have 'elementtree' dependency in cordova-windows, which depends on 'sax'. After running 'npm install' these dependencies installed as a siblings into 'node_modules', but after running 'npm pack' (in particular - 'coho create-archive') the resultant .tgz contains ONLY 'elementtree' but not 'sax'. Related NPM issue is https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/8474 AFAIK, the only solution for now is to revert 'node_modules' structure back to tree form. - Best regards, Vladimir --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@cordova.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@cordova.apache.org
