Module not found: Error: Can't resolve './lib/axios'

Question

I'm trying to import axios in my project. However, for some reasons, webpack/axios is causing me big troubles when trying to build.

GroupService.ts

import axios, { AxiosResponse, AxiosInstance } from 'axios';

webpack --display-error-details errors

ERROR in ./~/axios/index.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve './lib/axios' in 'C:\dev\test-project\node_modules\axios'

Here's my webpack configurations.

webpack.config.js

/** Plugin settings **/
var jsOutputFile = 'dist/testproject.min.js';
var cssOutputFile = 'dist/styles.css';

/** Webpack configuration **/
var webpack = require("webpack");
var ExtractTextPlugin = require("extract-text-webpack-plugin");
var extractCSS = new ExtractTextPlugin(cssOutputFile);

module.exports = {
  // application entry file
  entry: "./src/test-project.ts",

  // bundled application output file
  output: {
    path: __dirname,
    filename: jsOutputFile
  },

  // Currently we need to add '.ts' to the resolve.extensions array.
  resolve: {
    extensions: ['.ts']
  },

  // Source maps support ('inline-source-map' also works)
  devtool: 'source-map',

  // Add the loader for .ts files.
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.tsx?$/,
        use: 'ts-loader'
      },
      {
        test: /\.scss$/,
        use: extractCSS.extract([
          {
            loader: 'css-loader'
          },
          {
            loader: 'sass-loader'
          }
        ])
      }
    ]
  },

  plugins: [
    new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin({
      minimize: true,
      sourceMap: true,
      compress: {
        warnings: true
      }
    }),
    extractCSS
  ]
};

For me the problem was that I didn't restart the yarn start service after installing axios the library was correctly installed in the app local node_modules directory.

Solution

Stopped the yarn service with CTRL+C and restarted it again with yarn start.
