fresh.gen.ts is `not found` about fresh

[marvinhagemeister]

I wasn't able to reproduce this with the following steps in WSL:

1. Run deno run -Ar https://fresh.deno.dev
2. Run cd fresh project
3. Run deno task start

Maybe I'm missing a step?

Yea, when starting a new project, things work fine, until I move in components/islands etc from the original project.
What I'll do is try the migrating more slowly, until something triggers the error.

I'll report my findings once I'm done.

My gut tells me its probably a file/folder permissions thing in the new file system. But I'll know more when I get through some slow asf migration steps.

Ok. So I've finally got through the annoying task of migrating by hand. And I was able to reproduce 2 nasty side effects of Deno in WSL.

The first is actually a bug in the Deno VSCode plugin. Types for the package 'npm:contentful' and 'npm:@contentful/rich-text-types' do not work. That is its own issue, and probably related to how they package their code... I'll explore that seperately.

The second issue is the one I originally saw. Again, a package is throwing an error and causing issues, but the build step in fresh reports this as unhandled promise rejection. The package in question is 'active-campaign-react' And I'm unsure of what the real issue underlying this is. I'll do some more research tomorrow.

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: not found
  const manifest = (await import(toFileUrl(join(dir, "fresh.gen.ts")).href))

Ok, I'm now absolutely sure the issue here is with that specific module.

A couple things here.

1. There was a bug in deno 1.43.5 that was fixed in deno 1.43.6 that did not load @types properly.
2. Module imports that fail are not explained properly when not found. ie: the module that failed is not named in the error.

that second note is worth fixing I think.

i run into the same issue.
I try to use the open layers library.

I added the library in the deno.json imports
"ol": "npm:ol@latest"

And i get the error when i try to import from a sub-directory of that module ( in my case the ol module )

import { Map as olMap, View } from 'ol';  // THIS IS OK
import TileLayer from 'ol/layer';  // ERROR
