How to fix NPM EJSONParse with this package.json file? - node.js

Question

when I try the command npm install I have this
C:\Users\khaou>npm install
npm ERR! code EJSONPARSE
npm ERR! path C:\Users\khaou/package.json
npm ERR! JSON.parse Unexpected end of JSON input while parsing empty string
npm ERR! JSON.parse Failed to parse JSON data.
npm ERR! JSON.parse Note: package.json must be actual JSON, not just JavaScript.
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR! C:\Users\khaou\AppData\Local\npm-cache\_logs\2021-12-31T16_42_25_903Z-debug.log
This is the JSON:
{

"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "Blockchain Todo List Powered By Ethereum",
"main": "truffle-config.js",
"directories": {

}

Answer 1

Probably your file association is other than JavaScript like JavaScript react or any other.
Check your package.json settings file to have Item:javascript Value:javascript as default extension (*) on Files:Associations.
package.json->file->preferences->settings->Files:Associations
Item:javascript Value:javascript
Hope it works!
