yarn global add nyaovim not work

[gu-fan]

Use yarn global add nyaovim
Run with nyaovim

console error produces

$USER/AppData/Local/Yarn/config/global/node_modules/nyaovim/node_modules/neovim-component/neovim-editor.html
 Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

thus only npm install -g nyaovim can be used.

Not sure if similar, but I had to npm i or yarn inside ./node_modules/nyaovim. This made things work. I've done the following steps both with npm and yarn:

mkdir nyaovim
cd nyaovim
yarn add nyaovim
npx nyaovim     <-- oops! not working
cd node_modules/nyaovim
yarn
cd ../..
npx nyaovim     --> yap, works!

I'm not familiar with npm packaging but maybe there's some flag missing doing this same thing?

I'm using Yarn also and had exactly the same type of problems launching Nyaovim. At first I thought it had to do with the fact that I was executing Nyaovim from Zsh and that it possibly did not reattach to user namespace like it is described in the FAQ, it seemed like a likely scenario.

Then after some debugging I was able to locate the problem, here is a short shell snippet to assert wether you have same problems as me:
ls "$(yarn global dir)/node_modules/nyaovim/node_modules" | wc -l
If the command results with 0 (lines), then Nyaovim was not installed fully, meaning its dependencies like electron and such is non existent within Nyaovim own node_modules directory.
Try resolve it by following command:
cd "$(yarn global dir)/node_modules/nyaovim" && yarn install

Hope it helps!
