How to configure the npm install comnand to "npm install --legacy-peer-deps" in Microsoft AppCenter while building a react native app


File Attached

I am trying to build my react native app from App Center. I have dependency conflicts, while running in VSCode I use the command "npm install --legacy-peer-deps" but in App center, how do I configure the same command not just npm install so that node_modules are generated and build does not fail? Thanks in advance!

I found this article but it did not make complete sense to me.

Solution

  • You can add an .npmrc file to the root of your project, and include this line:

    legacy-peer-deps=true

    This gives context to the build process about your preferences for npm.
