I am looking for deleting a full Jhipster project (Cause their system to update entities is terrible, and their system to delete entities is ... non-existant.
Anyway, I would like to go back from 0. Is deleting my project directory enough ?
Won't it makes problems if I yo generator-jhipster on another directory after deleting my project's directory ?
Yes, deleting your project directory is enough, you will not have any problems running "yo jhipster" again.

I am a dev on a team inside a very large project. This is the first time I have worked on a project where the node_modules/package-lock files are not in the root of the project. I am used to personal projects with a few folders, files, and the node_modules/package-lock in the root so I can always easily "npm install..." in the root.
I am running into an issue when I try to run npm install (package), it completely breaks my local project. I have to rollback the changes, rebuild, and it works fine again.
Things I have tried:
Navigate to the same directory that node modules is in.
Example: C:\Users\USERID\source\repos\companyName\companyName2\Web\Administration.
Node_modules and package-lock are located here along with ~20 other various folders.
Navigate to the root (even though node_modules isn't located here, figured I'd try).
Navigate to one folder above. I tried this because this is the directory where the Visual Studio .sln file is located.
Example: C:\Users\USERID\source\repos\companyName\companyName2\Web\companyName.Web.Administration.sln
For more context, the specific file I need to add a package to is: C:\Users\USERID\source\repos\companyName\companyName2\Web\Administration\ClientApp\app\letter\letter-create-main.component.ts
I am hoping I can get some clarity on how to properly run npm install in large projects so I can add packages that I need to this monster of a project, and hopefully help others that have this question at the same time!
I have a create-react-app project that works well. However, if I let it sit for a couple days—without making any changes—it always breaks, with the error
package.json » eslint-config-react-app/jest#overrides[0]:
Environment key "jest/globals" is unknown
I'm convinced this is because desktop.ini files get created, and somehow they mess up the loading process of the dependencies. The problem gets fixed if I delete the whole node_modules folder and reinstall it using npm install. But the newly installed dependencies only last a couple of days (until the new desktop.ini files get regenerated) before they again break.
I've tried to stop windows from producing the desktop.ini files using the registry, but windows didn't listen (I run Windows 11). I've also seen that it is not recommended to delete/suppress these files.
Has anyone dealt with this issue? Are there any manageable workarounds?
I'm building a .Net Core application using Angular for my client-side code. For the most part, I'm using the default template that is included in VS 2017. For whatever reason, VS is making my node_modules folder read only. Before I was able to install packages via command line in the directory that holds my client side code as well as my package.json file and my node_modules folder. Before I was able to do this, but now it is defaulting the folder to read only which is invaliding all of my npm commands. I've verified that this is the case because I can remove the read only attribute via windows explorer and then run any of my commands like npm install.
Has anyone else encountered this before? If so, what did you do to resolve this?
Thanks!
Okay, I found the answer. VS puts a lock on the node_modules folder while it is running.
So, I guess for now if you need to add packages just close VS first.
I realize that this used to be accomplished with ng init but that no longer exists. It is also possible to run ng new from one level up the directory tree and target the folder of your extant project, but that will overwrite package.json thereby wiping out all the dependencies you already put in for yourself. Is there any way to accomplish the same as ng new, but in an already-extant project?
Well I see two immediates solutions :
1) Run ng-new in another project / folder
Then just copy paste the angular dependencies into your own package.json and run
npm i
2) Make a temporary duplicata of your dependencies
Then just run ng-new in your own project and put your dependencies back.
Those two solutions are not perfect, and I don't claim they are, but they are a 5 seconds-thinking solutions and sometimes, having the same result in less time can worth as much as the perfect solution.
I have a Team Foundation Build server behind a firewall, and I would like to check in a node_modules/ directory (powering both a Browserify client app and Node server app) associated with a project so that all of the files and dependencies needed to deploy a build are available without fetching anything.
Checking node_modules/ in to TFS seemed to work at first, except that the bin/ directories appearing in around 20 of my NPM dependencies were not checked in. bin/ does not appear in my .tfignore (or anywhere else I know of that could be preventing the check in).
These bin/ directories don't appear in the included/excluded changes in Team Explorer, at all. It's possible to locate one of these folders in Windows Explorer and add it with the TFS context menu, but doing that for all of the dependencies would be horrifically tedious and error prone.
How can I persuade TFS to detect changes in these folders? Is there some other configuration affecting included/excluded changes that I'm not aware of?
It is not recommended to upload "bin" folder or "node_modules" folder into Version Control. But if you do want to do this, following the steps below:
Go to "C:\Users\youraccount\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\x.0\Configuration\VersionControl" folder and open "LocalItemExclusions.config" file. (There may several folders named like 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, you need to make sure open the folder your VS current use.)
Delete the lines like following and save the file:
<Exclusion>bin</Exclusion>
<Exclusion>*.dll</Exclusion>
Close Visual Studio.
Delete "node_modules" folder.
Restart Visual Studio.
Run "npm install" command to reinstall the node modules.
Check "Pending Changes", files in "bin" folder should be listed in "Excluded Changes" section.
To check if the files and bin folders will get ignored by TFS. You could try to manually add them (such as drag to source control explorer). If you couldn't, then must related to some .tfignore settings , you may double check this such as if there is a .tfignore file in the root of the project folder level.
If you could, there maybe something wrong with your workspace or source control mapping of the bin folder. Try to remove the source control bindings and rebinding to TFS. Also give a try with delete the old workspace and use a new workspace.
You shouldn't check in node_modules - ever.
Rather use browserify or WebPack (I'd recommend WebPack) to package up your bundle.js.
Add the bundle.js to your source/scripts folder. Reference your bundle.js from your html instead of any <../node_modules/../scripts>.
Remove the npm install from your build script. you won't need it now due to referencing your bundle.js
WebPack is a dev-step, but it secures the version of packages you used during development and also saves you the npm install headache during deployment.
