I am using new @angular/cli 18.2.5. I did:
ng new my-app
Next:
ng add @nguniversal/express-engine
I got error "NOT SUPPORTED: keyword "id", use "$id" for schema ID") but the installation was successful.
And now I am trying:
1. ng generate universal --client-project=my-app
Error: Unknown argument: client-project
2. ng generate universal
Error: A collection and schematic is required during execution.
I follow this documentation: https://angulardive.com/blog/implementing-angular-universal-in-your-existing-angular-application/
I tested a lot of things, but can't find any solution for this. I am not sure if issue is releated to angular version (tried also angular 17), this error "NOT SUPPORTED: keyword "id", use "$id" for schema ID" or something else.
It seems like you're hitting a compatibility issue between @nguniversal/express-engine and Angular 18. Right now, nguniversal is expecting Angular v16 as a peer dependency. Downgrading to Angular 16 should solve the issue!
When I tried to upgrade nguniversal, I got the following response :
my-app>ng update @nguniversal/express-engine
Using package manager: npm
Collecting installed dependencies...
Found 28 dependencies.
Fetching dependency metadata from registry...
Package "@nguniversal/express-engine" has an incompatible peer dependency to "@angular/common" (requires "^16.0.0 || ^16.1.0-next.0", would install "18.2.5")
Package "@nguniversal/express-engine" has an incompatible peer dependency to "@angular/core" (requires "^16.0.0 || ^16.1.0-next.0", would install "18.2.5")
× Migration failed: Incompatible peer dependencies found.
Peer dependency warnings when installing dependencies means that those dependencies might not work correctly together.
Also, I got the following response after downgrading the CLI's version to 16 :
my-app>ng add @nguniversal/express-engine
