Error when adding Club Greensock package

[andrewandopen]

Hey there, 

I've followed this installation guide in order to add my Club Greensock features to my react project:


After copying the gsap-bonus.tgz into my project directory, and running yarn add ./gsap-bonus.tgz in my command line I am getting the following error:

error "./gsap-bonus.tgz": Tarball is not in network and can not be located in cache

Can you please advise on how to get around this?

Thanks

Hi there! Sorry this sounds super frustrating. I'm afraid I don't have much experience with yarn, other than seeing people in the forums having problems with it. It just seems like Yarn has a lot of known bugs and issues.

This thread may help?

 

Paging @Prasanna too in case he can help?

Maybe this too? https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/issues/2861

Thanks for your response @Cassie, should the .tgz file be pasted into my node_modules folder instead of the root directory perhaps?

As a follow up here, I also tried to install via my command line and receieved the below error, even though I was logged in

Hi,

 

The .tgz file should go in your project's root folder, not the node_modules one.

 

 

That's how the package.json file should look after installing GSAP using the bonus file using:

yarn add ./gsap-bonus.tgz

Happy Tweening!
