Hi Jose, 

I have tested your npm-shrinkwrap.json file with this patch (https://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/175755/) and it worked.
Can you test it on your machine ?

Regards,
Sandra

Hi Sandra, thank you by your info. It was very useful to fetch development modules from shrinkwrap file. 

I attach you the shrinkwrap file with no dependencies that I were trying to fetch. 

Regards.

Jose.

Hi Jose,

It seems that all your dependencies are development dependencies tagged with "dev":true in the npm-shrinkwrap.json file.

If all dependencies are for development purpose and if you want to install the package as a development package, you can add:

npmsw://${THISDIR}/${PN}/npm-shrinkwrap.json;dev=true

It seems that "npmsw.py" fetching code fails if you are trying to install a npm package with a npm-shrinkwrap.json file with no dependencies (as reported by Jean-Marie and Randy).
I am currently preparing a patch to solve the problem reported here: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13901.

If not, maybe you could send the full npm-shrinkwrap.json file to reproduce exactly the problem.

Regards,

Sandra
