I'm trying to develop an angular project and I've been using the CLI. I'm also trying to use some other components, like the angular handsontable and primeng. I unraveled a huge ball of confusion for myself, however, when I just wanted to see what versions of some packages, including angular itself, I have installed.
So for example, if I want to check the installed version of primeng, I saw that I could do `npm list primeng'. I get this:
C:\Code\path-to-my-project>npm list primeng
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/common@4.1.3
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/compiler@4.1.3
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/core@4.1.3
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/forms@4.1.3
`-- primeng@4.0.3
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/common@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/compiler@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/core@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/forms@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
Okay so... does that mean angular/common,compiler,core, and forms aren't installed? That's weird since Angular is working. Let me check...
C:\Code\path-to-my-project>npm list @angular/common
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/common@4.1.3
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/compiler@4.1.3
+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/core@4.1.3
`-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY @angular/forms@4.1.3
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/common@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/compiler@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/core@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! peer dep missing: @angular/forms@^2.3.1, required by ng2-handsontable@0.48.0
npm ERR! code 1
It looks like it isn't, from what I can tell. But this is the dependencies section of my package.json:
"dependencies": {
"@angular/animations": "^4.1.2",
"@angular/common": "^4.1.3",
"@angular/compiler": "^4.1.3",
"@angular/core": "^4.1.3",
"@angular/forms": "^4.1.3",
"@angular/http": "^4.0.0",
"@angular/platform-browser": "^4.0.0",
"@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "^4.0.0",
"@angular/router": "^4.0.0",
"core-js": "^2.4.1",
"font-awesome": "^4.7.0",
"ng2-handsontable": "^0.48.0",
"primeng": "^4.0.0",
"rxjs": "^5.1.0",
"zone.js": "^0.8.4"
},
and I've done "npm install" in this directory plenty of times. And Angular stuff works...
So what's going on? I would think that with all of these @angular lines in my package.json that when I npm install, it installs those packages.
