Cannot instal graphql-faker

[tbecker]

I cannot install graphql-faker on the mac - Ventura 13.4.1 (22F82), NPM version 9.2.0

this is the prompt:
npm install -g graphql-faker
"(######⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂⠂) ⠋ idealTree:express-graphql timing idealTree:node_modules/graphql-faker/node_modu"
The installer always stops at this point.

Yarn install did not work for me.
"ERROR: global is not COMMAND nor fully qualified CLASSNAME."

Best regards

I have the same problem, did anyone find a solution?

I installed using docker...., but still the standard install should work on Mac.

I managed to install the package through yarn when it's in a package.json file (I haven't tried a global install). But the module ends up empty in node_nodules:

The dist directory with the built files is missing. It looks like the 2.0.0 release didn't go as intended @IvanGoncharov

Until version 19 we can install it, after that all versions hangs.

The only way how i run the version 2.0.0 in docker is build it self in my Dockerfile by this command.

WORKDIR /workdir

EXPOSE 9002

ENV NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider

RUN git clone https://github.com/graphql-kit/graphql-faker.git && \
    cd graphql-faker && npm i && npm run build

ENTRYPOINT ["node", "/workdir/graphql-faker/dist/index.js"]

I run it on ubuntu with node 20 with npm 9 and the prerequisite is to have git installed inside the container..
it could still be combed and moved to the global, but for my needs it seemed unnecessary..
it's slow during the build, but I didn't come up with anything better after a whole day of research.. hopefully it will help someone..

Still facing the same issue. Any solution to this?

Even if installed via dependencies, v2.0.0 still does not work.

I just hit this issue with the following Dockerfile:

FROM node:18-alpine
RUN npm install -g --verbose graphql-faker

which after a couple seconds stopped dead in its tracks (here's ~2 minutes after it got stuck):

I commented out the RUN line in the above Dockerfile, then ran a shell to get the node and npm versions:

$ docker run --rm -it --entrypoint sh test
/ # npm --version
10.2.3
/ # node --version
v18.19.0

If it matters, my host is Windows 10 Pro (22H2, v19045.3930) running Docker Desktop v4.26.1.
