babel-node is not recognized as internal or external command - Babel 7


I'm using babel v7.6.x and have set up the following.

package.json

 "scripts": {
    "dev": "nodemon --exec babel-node bin/index.js",
    "start": "babel-node bin/index.js",
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
...
"devDependencies": {
    "@babel/core": "^7.6.4",
    "@babel/node": "^7.6.3",
    "@babel/preset-env": "^7.6.3",
    "nodemon": "^1.19.4"
  }

.babelrc

{
    "presets":[
        "@babel/preset-env"
    ]
}

yet i am still getting :

'babel-node' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It used to be working but since doing a recent npm install to get updated versions it has failed to start up successfully.

my node version is 10.15.2 npm version is 6.12.0

Thank you in advance!


Solution

  • Remove package directory:

    rm -rf node_modules
    

    Install again:

    yarn
    

    or

    npm install
    

    Check there is no errors

    Check enough free space available

    Check existence of files:
