In the node_modules folder there is a prettier install (package.json says "version": "1.19.1",) that is overriding the .prettierrc in my project root.
When I delete that dir, formatting returns to normal.
But this is only temporary as npm i puts it back. Something has it as a dependency, even tho searching for "prettier" or 1.19.1 only returns the package-lock.json.
I have other projects that work correctly without a node_modules installation of prettier, but this github template had it.
How can I clear this up? Ideally, I want to only use the project level .prettierrc.
You can find out which package is the culprit by searching in your package-lock.json. Each package in there has a requires field which lists its dependencies. That way you can traverse the chain to find out which dependency is causing the install.
Once you found the package, you have several options to force a specific dependency. In your case, you would force the latest version of prettier-plugin-svelte to be installed. In your case it's probably best to use npm shrinkwrap. You first add the latest version of prettier-plugin-svelte to your package.json, then do npm i, then make sure that only the latest prettier-plugin-svelte appears in your node_modules, then run npm shrinkwrap. More info here: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/npm/managing-node-js-dependencies-with-shrinkwrap/
More info and alternatives on forcing versions for various tools (npm/yarn) can be found in this StackOverflow answer: How do I override nested NPM dependency versions?

Getting the following message when I init a new project and then launch the Xcode emulator:
React-Native Version Mismatch
Javascript Version 0.50.1
Native version: 0.50.0
Make sure you have rebuilt the native code. ...
Does anyone know what is going on here and can help me?
This is what I've done with it:
Close all terminals and run build again.
You may forget to close nodejs terminal from another project, and they happen to have installed different react version.
So the code fetches from nodejs server conflicts with the native one.
In case you created your react-native app using create-react-native-app. You should have a app.json (expo). and a package.json file, check if the expo versions match and change accordingly. For example in my case the problem was that in the app.json file I had a 25.0.0 version for the expo sdkVersion attribute, I change that to 23.0.0 and everything worked.
package.json:
"dependencies": {
"expo": "^23.0.4",
"react": "16.0.0",
"react-native": "^0.50.4"
}
app.json:
{
"expo": {
"sdkVersion": "23.0.0" // before was 25.0.0
}
}
Just go to your android/app/build.gradle and then add to the dependencies section:
dependencies{
compile ("com.facebook.react:react-native:0.50.3") { force = true }
}
/// the react native version can be found in package.json
For Android developers who couldn't get it fixed by just closing and rebuilding, Manually uninstall the app on the emulator/device.
just force react native version in your android's app level gradle file, in the dependencies section.
compile ("com.facebook.react:react-native:0.52.0") { force = true }
worked for me
If you're running your React Native app through Expo, upgrading React Native is liable to cause this error (as noted at https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/923).
If that's your scenario, your options are:
Bump Expo (which is listed in your package.json) to a version that is compatible with your React Native version (if one exists, which may not be the case - judging by the linked issue, I figure that Expo support trails React Native releases).
Discard your changes, delete and reinstall your Node modules, Eject from Expo, and then (after checking that you can still run your app post-ejection) try your upgrade again.
I've never seen this error before, but whenever I can't get Xcode and React-Native to play well together, I do a couple of things. Check what version of Xcode I'm working with. If it needs to be updated, I update it. Then clearing watchman and the cache are the second place I go. I don't use the reset cache command. It always says that I need to verify the cache, so I skip that (you can do it though, I just get confused). I use rm -rf $TMPDIR/react-* to get rid of any cached builds. If that doesn't work, I try to build the app in Xcode, then work my way from there, to build it with react-native run-ios. With this error message, it seems you might start by trying to build it with Xcode. Hope that helps...let me know your progress with it. Good luck! (Also, you could update to RN 0.51 as another attempt to get your versions synced.)
I had this problem for the longest time and none of the above solutions helped. I was in the middle of upgrading react native in a create-react-native-app project until I found out that not all versions of Expo support the latest React Native.
Found this page linked in the documentation that shows which version combinations of React Native, React, and Expo are officially supported:
Source: https://github.com/react-community/create-react-native-app/blob/master/VERSIONS.md
Editing the app.json and package.json files to match the corresponding versions and running npm install got everything working again.
I am using a physical device, in my case this solved the problem:
Uninstall the app
lsof -i :8081
kill -9 PID
Rebuild the app (react-native run-android or react-native run-ios)
In your build.gradle file add the following
implementation ("com.facebook.react:react-native:0.51.0") {
force = true;
}
replace 0.51.0 with the version in your package.json
Try installing the dependencies again. That worked for me-
1.) yarn/npm install
2.) yarn/npm start --reset-cache
For me it was due to react-native version in dependency section of package.json file. It was:
"dependencies": {
"expo": "^27.0.1",
"react": "16.3.1",
"react-native": "~0.55.0"
}
I chaged it to:
"dependencies": {
"expo": "^27.0.1",
"react": "16.3.1",
"react-native": "0.52.0"
}
Now it works fine.
In my case installing a new virtual device helped. Now I am using 1 device per app.
It happens sometimes when you try to run without closing the node server, in which the previous app was running, so try restarting React.To do so, just run the following commands:
1. To kill current processes
killall node -9
2. To Start React Native
react-native start
3. Then Run android
react-native run-android
For my case I'm facing it on iOS, and I've tried to reset and clear all cache using below command but failed too, despite many comments saying that the root cause is there is react packager running somewhere accidentally, I've restarted my mac and the problem still remained.
watchman watch-del-all && rm -rf node_modules/ && yarn cache clean && yarn install && yarn start --reset-cache
The solution is, to delete the build folder # /ios/build, then execute react-native run-ios solved it
I have tried the solutions above but adding this to AndroidManifest.xml seems to fix it.
android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
For others with the same problem on iOS with CocoaPods:
I tried all of the solutions above, without luck. I have some packages with native dependencies in my project, and some of those needed pod modules being installed. The problem was that React was specified in my Podfile, but the React pod didn't automatically get upgraded by using react-native-git-upgrade.
The fix is to upgrade all installed pods, by running cd ios && pod install.
Expo users - make sure your app.json sdk version and package.json expo version are (may be equal) compatible to each other.
The fix we did was to make sure the ANDROID_HOME and PATH variables were set up prior to the build.
First, run the below two commands then the build the app for the device.
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/username/MyFiles/applications/androidsdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
This is working for me :
react-native start --reset-cache
I also had this issue using Expo and iOS Simulator. What worked for me was erasing the Simulator in Hardware > Erase All Content and Settings...
I have got the same issue while building my react native app for android and I did the following which worked for me.
The "JavaScript version 0.50.1" in the error console is the react-native version in your package.json file. Make sure it is the same version as "Native version 0.50.0" in the error console.
I have Updated the react-native version to the "Native Version 0.50.0" as prompted in the error console.
Rebuild the app react-native run-android.
Possible Fix:
Delete the package-lock.json
Run: watchman watch-del-all && rm -rf $TMPDIR/react-* && rm -rf $TMPDIR/haste-map-react-native-packager-* && rm -rf node_modules/&& npm install
If the problem persists, try to execute the project directly from the Xcode
This worked for me.
In my case (NOT using expo & Android build)
package.json
"dependencies": {
"react": "16.3.1",
"react-native": "0.55.2"
}
And app.json
{
"sdkVersion": "27"
}
resolved the issue
I was trying to build and run a React Native app from WebStorm and ran into this problem. The simple solution for me was:
watchman watch-del-all
On macOS, if watchman is not already installed, install it using Homebrew:
brew install watchman
In my case, I changed the expo version manually. I got the same issue because I forgot to update sdkVersion in app.json and babel-preset-expo in package.json
After that run: expo r -c to clear cache and start the app.
This Answer is Published in 2020,
Fix this Error in 3 steps:
First step: I changed the value of expo in package.json file to the latest supported version, according to expo documents(visit here).
Second step: I changed the value of sdkVersion in app.json file to the same value of expo in package.json.( equal number to last step).
Third step : I changed the value of react-native in package.json file to the same value of React Native Version , according to expo documents(visit here).
now your ready to go.
use npm install to install specified version of dependencies and then npm start to run the project
I got this classing when TypeScript type definitions mismatched.
E.G react-native at 0.61.5 in dependencies and #types/react-native at 0.60.0 in devDependencies.
As soon as I updated devDependencies it worked. Didn't have to restart anything.
edit your package.json for your javascript version
"react-native": "^0.50.1",
after run
npm install
For me, who is running with a monorepo, there was a hidden react-native version inside yarn.lock. It was not present in any package.json, but was never deleted.
I removed that particular react-native version from yarn.lock, and did a
yarn install
This cleaned out alot of old stuff and made sure that things was working fine.
In a team set up, usually, I have faced merge conflicts in package-lock.json and my quick fix has always been to delete the file and regenerate it with npm install. I have not seriously thought about the implication of this fix because it has not caused any perceivable problem before.
Is there a problem with deleting the file and having npm recreate it that way instead of resolving the conflicts manually?
Yes, it can and will affect all the project in really bad way.
if your team does not run npm install after each git pull you all are using different dependencies' versions. So it ends with "but it works for me!!" and "I don't understand why my code does not work for you"
even if all the team runs npm install it still does not mean everything is ok. at some moment you may find your project acts differently. in a part that you have not been changing for years. and after (probably, quite painful) debugging you will find it's because of 3rd level dependency has updated for next major version and this led some breaking changes.
Conclusion: don't ever delete package-lock.json.
Yes, for first level dependencies if we specify them without ranges (like "react": "16.12.0") we get the same versions each time we run npm install. But we cannot say the same about dependencies of 2+ level deep (dependencies that our dependencies are relying on), so package-lock.json is really important for stability.
In your case you better do next way:
fix conflicts in package.json
run npm install
As easy as it looks. The same to yarn - it fixes lockfile conflict on its own. The only requirement here to resolve all the conflicts in package.json beforehand if any.
Per docs npm will fix merge conflicts in package-lock.json for you.
[Upd from 2021] important! If you use some library already and npm/GitHub account of its maintainer is hacked. And new version with malicious code inside is released. And you have package-lock.json intact. You will be fine. If you drop it you are in trouble.
Yes it can have bad side effects, maybe not very often but for example you can have in package.json "moduleX": "^1.0.0" and you used to have "moduleX": "1.0.0" in package-lock.json.
By deleting package-lock.json and running npm install you could be updating to version 1.0.999 of moduleX without knowing about it and maybe they have created a bug or done a backwards breaking change (not following semantic versioning).
Anyway there is already a standard solution for it.
Fix the conflict inside package.json
Run: npm install --package-lock-only
Check out this link for more info:
https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v6/configuring-npm/package-locks#resolving-lockfile-conflicts
I know it's an old question but for future seekers, you can also use npm-merge-driver which try to automatically resolve the npm related files' merge issues.
Just install it globally npx npm-merge-driver install --global. You can read more about it here npm-merge-driver
Edit: Just want to warn people, who are interested in using above package, that sometime it can behave erratically and difficult to remove. So although it is a useful tool, it still need some work.
Edit: This repository is now archived and read only.
npm i --force does the work for me
In my project I've installed bower components without save option. Now, I would like update to bower.json?
How can I update bower.json with installed packages?
Just list your dependencies:
bower list
Then you should run all install command with param '--save' like this:
bower install bootstrap --save
It's a hard work, but if you have a thousand dependencies, could you create a script to automatize the task.
A little trick if you don't want to write a script for that:
before doing anything rename your bower.json in bower2.json for example.
then you can do a:
$ bower init
(automatically create a bower.json file).
note that all questions should be pre-filled with your current config.
When it will ask you:
set currently installed components as dependencies?
say yes,
You now have all your dependencies in the new bower.json file (and you can check if everything is right with the old bower2.json)
A bit arduous way is to run bower list, look for packages labeled extraneous and add those manually to the dependencies in the bower.json.
If there are a lot of extraneous packages, it might be easier to workaround this by running bower init and answering Yes to "set currently installed components as dependencies?". This will take your current bower.json, read it and then create new one using information from the old one. So in an ideal case you will have the same file just with extraneous packages added.
Warning: Firstly, there might be something lost in the process (e.g. devDependecies). Secondly in the last version of bower (v1.2.7) this will not preserve current packages info! I feel it is a bug. However you can save the old file and (manually) merge it with the generated one.
Also, you should ask for an option or something by opening a bower issue as this would be welcomed by many developers.
You can use bower-check-updates (you need installed node.js on your machine):
bower-check-updates is a utility that automatically adjusts a bower.json with the latest version of all dependencies
bower-check-updates - is a fork of npm-check-updates, so it's all the same but updates bower.json, instead of package.json
npm install -g bower-check-updates
bower-check-updates -u
bower install
This will install bower-check-updates globally, so you can launch it from anywhere.
P.S. for more information about npm-check-updates pleas see this topic
If there aren't that many bower packages you have installed, try writing bower install [package_name] --save. This will just update your bower.json file.
After bower-check-updates -u you must run bower install instead of npm install
