[pezcode]

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.

Package Name

nodejs

Expected/Current Behaviour

Installing nodejs (22.0.0) and then running npm produces:

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1205
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\chris\scoop\persist\nodejs\bin\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js'
    at Module._resolveFilename (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1202:15)
    at Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1027:27)
    at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (node:internal/modules/run_main:187:14)
    at node:internal/main/run_main_module:28:49 {
  code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: []
}

Steps to Reproduce

scoop install nodejs
npm

Possible Solution

No fix, but two workarounds:

• install old version scoop install [email protected]
• install nodejs-lts instead

Same issue here

This line introduces the error:

Main/bucket/nodejs.json

Line 33 in f0aa6fd

"Set-Content -Value \"prefix=$persist_dir\\bin`ncache=$persist_dir\\cache\" -Path \"$dir\\node_modules\\npm\\npmrc\""

Possible Solution:

• update persist path defined in manifest.json, or:
• change %scoop%\apps\nodejs\22.0.0\node_modules\npm\npmrc, unset prefix variable.

npm.cmd only uses npm-cli from the prefix dir if it actually exists, and otherwise falls back to using npm-cli from the node dir. npm.ps1 always tries to use npm-cli from the prefix dir.

This seems like a bug in node.

As a workaround, using npm.cmd directly works fine.

PS C:\> npm.cmd --version
10.5.1

Or you could add this to npm.ps1:

$npmprefixclijs="$npmprefix/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js"

+# Fall back to using npm from the node dir if it doesn't exist in the prefix dir
+if (-not (test-path $npmprefixclijs)) {
+  $npmprefixclijs = "$nodedir/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js"
+}

which also seems to work

PS C:\> npm --version
10.5.1

Seems like this requires a fix in node though. Setting the node prefix path to point to a persisted path seems like the right thing for the scoop package to be doing.

It's a npm's bug, see nodejs/node#52682, you may try workarounds mentioned above (or manually remove npm|npx.ps1 to let it fallback to npm|npx.cmd) before they fixing it.
