npm ERR! 404 Not Found: pinkie-promise

Question

I\'m trying to install Ionic Pro, and I am getting this error while pushing through live deploy.. Any help would be gladly appreciated

npm install --quiet --no

Answer 1

I was able to work around this by installing pinkie-promise by pointing to their github repo.

npm install https://github.com/floatdrop/pinkie-promise.git

Answer 2

Solution to make project build work again

Since this dependency is not available on npm registry, one will have to do the following to make it work.

Follow these steps to make things work again.

1. rm -rf node_modules/
2. rm -rf package-lock.json
3. npm i https://github.com/floatdrop/pinkie-promise.git

In the end you will see the output

+ pinkie-promise@2.0.1

Answer 3

A little under a year ago, the package "leftpad" broke NPM builds all over the world because the author pulled it from the public repository.

The same is happening today, for "pinkie-promise". The author's NPM account (@floatdrop) was deleted, opening opportunities for malware in all the packages he's written.

Dependent builds include Ionic and (in my case) node-sass.
