Error: Cannot find module '‘global-agent/bootstrap’'

I am trying to build theia project using yarn but am facing 2 issues.

I cloned Theia repo but when building using yarn

kriouana@TUN MINGW64 ~/Desktop/theia (master)
$ yarn

I got this error related to some file called INSTALL.JS

error C:\Users\kriouana\Desktop\theia\node_modules\electron: Command failed.
Exit code: 1
Command: node install.js
Arguments:
Directory: C:\Users\kriouana\Desktop\theia\node_modules\electron
Output:
RequestError: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND github.com

So after searching about this issue I found this

yarn global add global-agent
cd <clone_dir>/theia/node_modules/electron
node -r ‘global-agent/bootstrap’ install.js

but when executing the last line this came up

$ node -r ‘global-agent/bootstrap’ install.js
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:988
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module '‘global-agent/bootstrap’'
Require stack:
- internal/preload

its something related to node and install.js and global-agent

Solution

  • I have already found the solution just I wrote the wrong quote ‘ ’ when I should use ' ',

    node -r 'global-agent/bootstrap' install.js
