Totally. We just ran into this issue. Running npm install inside a linux vm resulted in an endless loop, because the nfs mapping created path names that exceeded the length limit.
- ishener 10y agoit's like an entire eco-system is fundamentally broken
- fahrradflucht 10y agoMaybe, but it's not like there is no way of solving that issue. It's just that this problem can't be solved entirely by npm. Node has to make changes to it's module loader as well.
- throwanem 10y agoNPM 3 tries, not entirely without success, to flatten the tree under node_modules/; I've had good results using it to resolve the kind of path length issues (in this case, with NTFS directories mounted in a VM) that you describe. Might be worth a look in your case as well.
