npm-bundle fails with Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'package.json'-CodePudding

npm-bundle fails with Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'package.json' for my NodeJs project. If I create test.js, package.json file manually and run npm install and then npm-bundle it works fine as expected. When I run npm-bundle for my existing project it fails. I have checked and all node_modules, package.json and package-lock.json exists in the project. How can I debug this issue?

username$npm-bundle --verbose

CodePudding user response：

Is your package.json file in the root of your project?

I find it helpful to run npm init when creating a new Node project instead of manually creating the package.json file.

CodePudding user response：

In package.json the name field had @namespace/package-name which was causing issue, changing it to just "name": "package-name" worked.
