Why the "Error: cannot find module" Occurs. This error occurs because of the following reasons: you're trying to import an item from a module you don't have installed in your project directory. you're importing some things from an outdated package. you're pointing to a file that does not exist.
To fix the Cannot find module error, simply install the missing modules using npm . This will install the project's dependencies into your project so that you can use them. Sometimes, this might still not resolve it for you. In this case, you'll want to just delete your node_modules folder and lock file ( package-lock.
If you are getting the "Cannot find module" error when trying to run a local file, make sure that the path you passed to the node command points to a file that exists. For example, if you run node src/index. js , make sure that the path src/index. js points to an existing file.
Most likely commander is missing from package.json. Install it and add it to package.json by doing:
npm install commander --save
Install commander globally.
sudo npm install commander -g
/usr/lib/node_modules/.
