Unable to run CDK local Error: Cannot find module 'aws-cdk/lib/api/aws-auth/sdk-provider' about aws-cdk-local

[SimonLdj]

got similar issue:

Error: Cannot find module 'aws-cdk/node_modules/cdk-assets/lib/private/handlers/files'

with "aws-cdk": "1.111.0" & "aws-cdk-local": "1.65.5"
but with "aws-cdk-local": "1.65.4" all looks good

Please note I had a similar issue with aws-cdk-local version 1.65.5
My error was
cdklocal --version
Error Cannot find module diff

Taking @SimonLdj advice solved the issue.

Thanks for reporting @rgoodwin . Just to confirm - did you install the aws-cdk npm package as well? (See README here: https://github.com/localstack/aws-cdk-local#quick-installation).

Can you please share the output of the following commands:

$ node -e 'console.log(require("aws-cdk"))'
$ cdk --version
$ cdklocal --version

Thanks!

Not OP, but I ran into this error as well. Seemed to be a versioning issue.

npm install -g [email protected]
npm install -g [email protected] 

seems to work, but earlier (<1.65) or later (>1.90) versions of CDK do not.

@SimonLdj this seems to be related to the latest change:
const { FileAssetHandler } = require('aws-cdk/node_modules/cdk-assets/lib/private/handlers/files');

As a result, anything other than NPM or Yarn (and in yarn, it doesn't work with monorepos will probably fail because node_modules folder doesn't have to exist as folder itself because it can be a symlink (which probably will throw an error).

Thanks @SimonLdj @nbraid @rubfergor @recklessYello @ubaidbaig-10p @rgoodwin . We have pushed a small fix which should (hopefully) resolve the import issues. Can you please give it another try with the latest version [email protected]. Hope that helps - please report here or create a new issue with more details if the problem persists. Thanks!

[rubfergor]

Seems to be working now! Thanks!
