Development docs missing styleguide setup about molgenis-emx2 HOT 3 CLOSED

did you do a 'yarn install' in /apps ?

from molgenis-emx2.

As a matter of fact I did do yarn install in the /apps folder. But this has nothing to do with this error.

If you cleanly checkout emx2 repository, there will be no 'dist' folder inside the styleguide app.
to reproduce this, is by deleting the dist folder from the styleguide in your dev environment and try to start.
You will get the same error as above.

The reason is, is that you use 'workspaces' and have included the styleguide as a package in one or more apps, because of workspaces it will see the same package inside your mono-repo and will link it internally. It then tries to resolve the path and looks for the 'dist' folder inside the styleguide. With a clean install this is not present, because of .gitignore it is not added to the repo. So it will error.

So you actually have to build the styleguide as well by typing 'yarn build' inside the styleguide app. And this step is not documented.

yarn install only fetches external dependancies and does not build anything.
