New repository structure results in: cannot find module 'parse-server'

[omairvaiyani]

Happened once I updated to the latest build:

Error: Cannot find module 'parse-server'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:289:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:366:17)
    at require (module.js:385:17)

var ParseServer = require('parse-server').ParseServer; // not changed this line

can you re-run npm install and make sure that's not it?

[omairvaiyani]

I did - I think it might be a mistake on my end regarding how I installed the repo. I forked it, and ran npm install omairvaiyani/parse-server which cloned this repo's master branch. I see that the master branch is different from the latest tag 2.0.7, the latter of which works fine.

Looks like the problem has been found.

[omairvaiyani]

Could this be re-opened. I need clarification as I'm new to babel - are we supposed to build the repositories using npm build? Because even on 2.0.8, I can't simple use require('parse-server') without trigger the cannot find module error.

Yes you should only need to do npm install. If that doesn't work, that is a bug.

@omairvaiyani npm build won't do anything, to trigger a build you have to run npm run build

Not clear if there's an issue here and it's getting stale. If there is a problem with the latest version, please open a new issue. Thanks.

I am having this issue now as well. If I run:
npm install parseplatform/parse-server.git#latest --save
everything works fine. If I run:
npm install parseplatform/parse-server.git#2.6.5 --save
I get the same error: Cannot find module 'parse-server'. Changing nothing else about the project
npm install parseplatform/parse-server.git#master --save gives the same error
