Installing from a GitHub repository does not always retrieve all of the necessary files

After making some modifications to a specific NPM package by forking the GitHub repository, I am now facing challenges when trying to install it in my project.

The command I used to install this modified package is:

npm install --save git+https://github.com/username/githubreponame.git#branchname

Although the installation seems to be successful, upon checking the node_modules folder and examining the installed package, I noticed that not all files from the GitHub repo were included. In fact, only the License, package.json, and README.md files are present while the JS files seem to be missing, rendering me unable to import anything from the library.

Any advice on how to ensure all files are properly installed?

Answer №1

Referring to the previous comment, it was noted that by specifying only one folder in the files section of package.json for installation via npm install, the issue was resolved after removing this entry.
