I'm attempting to make a CLI with Node.js following the tutorial on Twilio and after doing npm link I get this error when using the command. I read an old overflow post which said to add node to my environment variables, which I have.
Here's the error:
& : The term '/node.exe' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check
the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

My best guess is the tutorial is behind versions, hopefully one of you can sort this out for me. Thanks!
Environment Variables
I was also looking for the answer but after comparing this code and my code suddenly realized that the path #!/usr/bin/env/node given to bin/create-project is completely wrong.
In my case, I have given it as #! /user/bin/env node but it has to be usr instead of using user.
In this case, it has to be...
File: bin/create-project
#! /usr/bin/env node
require = require('esm')(module /*, options */);
require('../src/cli').cli(process.argv);
Those spaces are a must when it comes to path.
For reference: first line is a so-called shebang.
And why to use env here and not call node directly, is summarized here in another SE post.
Short: env acts as a proxy to find your desired interpreter, in your case node on the target system, even if it is maybe found in the users ~ home dir or something...
I have a Node app that is tested on node 10. I am using yarn as a dependency manager. As my app test is run on CI with the latest version of node 10, I want to make sure that all developers have installed the latest 10.x.x version when running any yarn command.
For example, let's say the current latest node version is 10.22.1, then I want to stop the yarn install if the developer is on 10.22.0 or 10.11.1.
Using the engine directive in package.json I tried the following syntax but no avail.
{
"engines": {
"node": "^10.x.x",
}
}
{
"engines": {
"node": "^10",
}
}
{
"engines": {
"node": ">10.0.0 <11.0.0",
}
}
{
"engines": {
"node": "10",
}
}
All of these allow any node with major version 10.
As per the yarn documentation (https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/package-json/), the preinstall is called before the package is installed.
If defined, the preinstall script is called by yarn before your package is installed.
So I would go with something like this in your package.json:
"scripts": {
....
"preinstall": "./scripts/preinstall.sh",
}
Your preinstall.sh could be:
#!/bin/bash
currentver="$(node -v)"
requiredver="v10.0.0"
if [ "$(printf '%s\n' "$requiredver" "$currentver" | sort -V | head -n1)" = "$requiredver" ]; then
echo "Version is good so let's go with install"
else
echo "Please install the node version greater than v10.0.0"
exit -1
fi
So if your developer has a version less than v10.0.0, the above script will fail and will in turn fail the yarn install command.
Note: Credit to https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/285924/how-to-compare-a-programs-version-in-a-shell-script for shell script for version comparison.
As we have in the npm doc :
to specify acceptable version ranges up to 1.0.4, use the following syntax:
Patch releases: 1.0 or 1.0.x or ~1.0.4
Minor releases: 1 or 1.x or ^1.0.4
Major releases: * or x
So, if you want to ask for only the 10.22.1 version or newer you should use ~10.22.1 or ^10.22.1
And it's another option to pin the version (you can read more about it from this link) by using the exact version like:
{
"engines": {
"node": "10.22.1",
}
}

I ran into a similar issue lately while trying to use another library (tiff.js) in a small project I was experimenting with.
The way I got around this was to add the following to my package.json file, right after the devDependencies section.
"devDependencies": {
...
},
"browser": {
"crypto": false
}
This didn't seem to have any adverse effect when trying to use the library in the application.
Adding this setting in tsconfig.json file under that project resolve this warning
"compilerOptions": {
"baseUrl": "./",
"paths": {
"crypto": [
"node_modules/crypto-js"
]
}
I like R. Richards's answer, but I thought it would be useful to provide some more information.
This is a known issue with Angular, and the Angular CLI dev team seems to think it's a feature rather than a bug. I, as well as other developers in this issue thread, disagree. Contributors to that thread provided several workaround fixes, but my project didn't compile successfully until I implemented R. Richards' solution. I didn't revert the previous changes, though, so tacnoman's and GrandSchtroumpf's fixes may be of use to others.
Some, like clovis1122 here and others in that issue thread, have questioned why a web app would need access to these libraries and why the necessary tasks can't be completed on the server side instead. I can't speak for everyone, but my use case is that, when authenticating a user account, Strapi responds with a JSON Web Token string that must be decoded by the client. Since the necessary library depends on crypto and stream, you won't be able to extract the JWT expiration time unless those dependencies are available.
In case anyone has trouble extrapolating from R. Richards' answer, you'll have to set to false any dependencies that are showing up in "can't resolve x" errors. For example, the critical part of my package.json is:
"browser": {
"crypto": false,
"stream": false
}
I thought I would expand on what Tarique Ahmed wrote in his answer.
I was using an npm module that had the following line in the code:
const crypto = require('crypto');
I couldn't add:
"browser": {
"crypto": false
}
to the package.json because the crypto package had to be part of the build.
It turns out that during the compilation process Angular seems to have decided to install the crypto-browserify package instead of crypto.
Adding the following to the tsconfig.json file instructs the build to use the crypto-browserify library every time that crypto is required. As you can see, I had the same issue for the stream package.
"paths": {
"crypto": [
"node_modules/crypto-browserify"
],
"stream": [
"node_modules/stream-browserify"
]
}
After having the same issue with Angular 11 and crypto-js 4 (and manually setting the path in tsconfig.json), I found rolling back crypto-js to version 3.1.9-1 fixed the issue. It seems a change made in version 4 caused the issue.
npm install crypto-js#3.1.9-1
Explained here in repo issues:
GitHub issue
If you upgraded to Webpack 5, you need to add this to your webpack config file:
resolve: {
fallback: { crypto: false },
},
aws-sign2 is a NodeJS package (and crypto is a NodeJS module), but it looks like you're dealing with a web application. It makes sense that the crypto module is not available in that environment.
Would it be possible to complete what you need to do server-side? Otherwise, you may need to look for another package.
For Laravel Inertia JS project, my solution was:
1- Add dependencies to package.json
"dependencies": {
"crypto-browserify": "3.12.0",
"crypto-random-string": "^3.3.0",
"stream": "^0.0.2"
}
2-In webpack.config.js:
const path = require('path');
module.exports = {
resolve: {
alias: {
'#': path.resolve('resources/js'),
},
fallback: {
crypto: require.resolve('crypto-browserify'),
stream: require.resolve('stream'),
},
},
};
3-Install, build and run:
npm install && npm run watch
I have resolved my issue using below steps:
Add below to tsconfig.json to resolve crypto warning:
"paths": {
"crypto": [
"node_modules/crypto-js"
]
},
and add below to angular.json
"options": {
"allowedCommonJsDependencies": [
"crypto-js"
],
...
}
My Error
In my Case the import { get } from "express/lib/response" is the culprit, which is automatically added by vs-code.
So, after removing it I solved my issue
When using #Laravel framework with Laravel Mix this is going to be more trick. I spend some hours on this NPM nightmare and found a solid solution.
So, in your webpack.mix.js you find the 'comment'
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Mix Asset Management
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Mix provides a clean, fluent API for defining some Webpack build steps
| for your Laravel application. By default, we are compiling the Sass
| file for the application as well as bundling up all the JS files.
|
*/
Now just below that comment add the following lines;
mix.webpackConfig(webpack => {
return {
plugins: [
new webpack.LoaderOptionsPlugin({
exports: {
resolve: {
fallback: {
crypto: require.resolve('crypto-browserify'),
}
}
}
})
]
};
});
Now you can use Laravel Mix just like you would edit webpack.config.js ;)
Also; In package.json remove:
--no-progress --hide-modules
These are no longer valid for WebPack >= 5. Enjoy!
After a deep a research i found that the solution is very simple: replace
import * as CryptoJS from 'crypto-js'; with declare var CryptoJS;
Using direct import may not work with ES6 Enviornment..
This may help you.
$ npm i crypto-js#latest // For using latest version 4
import AES from 'crypto-js/aes';
import Utf8 from 'crypto-js/enc-utf8';
import { secretKey } from './environments/environment';
/** Encryption */
const data = {key: 'Test Value'};
const ciphertext = AES.encrypt(JSON.stringify(data), secretKey).toString();
console.log('Encrypted Data', ciphertext);
/** Decryption */
const bytes = AES.decrypt(ciphertext, secretKey);
const decryptedData = JSON.parse(bytes.toString(Utf8));
console.log('Decrypted Data', decryptedData);
https://github.com/brix/crypto-js/issues/168#issuecomment-785617218
Add the option allowedCommonJsDependencies with literal "crypto-js" in a array, this in file angular.json:
"architect":
"build": {
"options": {
"allowedCommonJsDependencies": [
"crypto-js"
]
},
}
}
This will disable all warnings, tested in Angular 11.
My problem was that I was trying to build to node and web using the same code, but is not possible to built to web while importing a WebSocket dependency, ws in my case
So the solution is by using a wrapper:
Install a wrapper, I will use isomorphic-ws because is made for ws
npm i --save isomorphic-ws
Remove const WebSocket = require('ws')
Replace with:
const WebSocket = require('isomorphic-ws')
I ended up going into
node_modules/react-scripts/config/webpack.config.js
and adding:
fallback: {
// Here paste
crypto: require.resolve("crypto-browserify"),
https: require.resolve("https-browserify"),
http: require.resolve("stream-http"),
url : require.resolve("url")
}
And now my react app builds with errors but no dependency issues. Ill update this when I get it building.
Add
npm install crypto-js
Or Add a specific version according to your project need
npm install crypto-js#4.0.0
Also, run the above commands in Window "run as administrator" or in Linux use sudo
Alot of answers already but still none of them works. In my case I see warning message
BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default. This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it. If you want to include a polyfill, you need to: - add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "crypto": require.resolve("crypto-browserify") }' - install 'crypto-browserify' If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this: resolve.fallback: { "crypto": false }
comment from #stewii did helped me to resolved this.
There is now an ES modules version called "crypto-es". It clears these warnings. npmjs.com/package/crypto-es
After this I imported cryptoES
import CryptoES from 'crypto-es';
and remove the existing import of cryptoJs. Re-start the compile and Voila.. The warning message is gone.
I tried a lot of the solutions above but the final thing that worked for me was downloading the crypto-es package and adding, "type":"module" to package.json.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/crypto-es
I was facing same issue, Just run node patch.js and it worked. The issue is, browser doesn't allow server files to be run on browser. In case you need some of these, You can use node patch.js. If you don't want to run any server file on browser, you can simply apply above mentioned solution by #R.Richards. Might be helpful for someone..
In my case, the solution described by R.Richards doesn't work.
However, following several threads along this issue, I finally understood where to insert the recommendation provided in the warning message and solved this warning.

Differently from many contributors, I didn't want to install crypto-browserify as I don't need it (*), and I chose to add the fallback { "crypto": false }.
However I didn't know where to add this fallback. After reading several threads, I found it was in the webpack.config.js file, which is located in the directory node_modules/react_scripts/config.
Adding this fallback made the compilation succeed without any warning.
(*) PS : I once tried to add the following fallback { "crypto": require.resolve("crypto-browserify") }, but it led to generation of 7 errors, requiring other modules :
Failed to compile.

webpack compiled with 7 errors
I had this problem in ReactJS with create-react-app(facebook)
Solution:
First install the necessary packages "crypto-browserify"
Modify webpack.config.js in reactjs with create-react-app this file is inside:
node_modules/react-scripts/config/webpack.config.js
Search module.exports and inside this function there is a return:
module.exports = function (webpackEnv) {
...
return {
...
resolve: {
...
fallback: {
// Here paste
crypto: require.resolve("crypto-browserify"),
}
}
}
}
Note: Is possible you need other packages how "stream-browserify" the steps are same. This solution works, but when the webpack project starts it shows warnings
Pd: I am not native speaker English, but I hope understand me.
I have two js files : play.js and myStore.js.
I want to import code from myStore.js into play.js and use it there. I'm using es2015 plugin for the import, But it makes my es2017 friendly code fail, even though I have es2017 setup.
play.js:
import G from '../functions/myStore.js'; // import needs es2015
// this works with es2017, but not when es2015 is also included
for(k in [1,2,3]) console.log(k)
myStore.js
var G = {}
export default G
Output: If I did not import anything, and just used the es2017 preset, this would run fine, but using es2015 along with es2017 makes this fail as below:
for (k in [1, 2, 3]) {
^
ReferenceError: k is not defined
I'm executing this from terminal via npm start . Here's my package.json:
{
"name": "functions",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "play.js",
"scripts": {
"start": "babel-node play.js"
},
"author": "Somjit",
"license": "ISC",
"devDependencies": {
"babel-cli": "^6.24.0",
"babel-preset-es2015": "^6.24.0",
"babel-preset-es2015-node5": "^1.2.0",
"babel-preset-es2017": "^6.22.0"
}
}
and my babel.rc:
{ "presets": ["es2015", "es2017"] }
Ok. My short answer would be...
1) Babel reads your code and if it sees some new js feature it translate it to regular js by using presets. For example, if it sees let a = 1 Babel uses preset-es2015 (that knows what let is) and translate this line into var a = 1 so your browser could understand this line.
2) If you look to the docs of babel-preset-es2017 you'll see that it supports only two features. You have not this features in your code. So babel don't use this preset while reading code that you've provided. So es2017 don't matter in your problem.
3) If you run your code without es2015 it allows you to declare variables without var (because you can do this in js without strict mode). But when you use this preset Babel reads your code and trows an Error because according to new js standarts you need to declare variables with var, let or const and can't just write a = 1;
when I started with babel even small stuff where taking too much time to understand.
then I found this tutorial which helped me a lot.
In Your case, absolutely your problem is not babel-preset-es2017. you must install babel-plugin-transform-runtime and put it in your .babelrc file as plugin.
installing:
npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-transform-runtime
setting .babelrc file:
{
"presets": [
"es2015",
"es2017"
],
"plugins": [
"transform-runtime"
]
}
