I have added latest version of @angular-devkit/build-angular in package.json and did npm install ,it should install webpack as well ,as a peer dependency but its not installing ,its throwing a warning explicitly to install webpack when I do npm install.I can explicitly install the module but I want that to happen from @angular-devkit/build-angular itself. what could be the reason?

  • What is the exact error you are getting? – Ikhlak S. Mar 21 '19 at 16:59

    npm WARN @angular-devkit/build-webpack@0.13.6 requires a peer of webpack@^4.6.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself. @Rust – curious coder Mar 21 '19 at 17:12
  • saw this on a system where I was doing a side build of an old version and had to downgrade node from 14.X to 12.19.0. I have a bulid machine where the old build is working on 12.19. The uninstall/reinstall of node wiped out my globals, so I reinstalled (-g) what was on the build machine globally (@angular/cli@7.1.4, node-gyp@7.1.2). Same error message you got. Extra weird part: as a diagnostic, I copied node_modules from the build machine and fixed up _where in package.jsons. Somewhere during the build THE WEBPACK I COPIED OVER GOT DELETED, then the build complained about not having it. – unbob Jan 18 '21 at 20:40
  • small update - an angular 9 build works on the same machine where the angular 7 build is broken (not just on the same machine, but in the same directory, after pulling in the trunk where the branch had been and deleting node_modules). – unbob Jan 18 '21 at 20:51
