Jest Cannot Find Module react-location

I am using create-react-app without ejecting. Tests were working all fine until my PRs starting failing with npm ERR! npm ci can only install packages when your package.json and package-lock.json or npm-shrinkwrap.json are in sync. Please update your lock file with npm install before continuing.

After fixing that, the site runs fine, but I have this error in my tests when running both locally and on my CI:

● Test suite failed to run

    Cannot find module 'react-location' from 'src/_shared/testUtils/renderComponent.js'

    ...

      at Resolver.resolveModule (node_modules/jest-resolve/build/resolver.js:324:11)
      at Object.<anonymous> (src/_shared/testUtils/renderComponent.js:6:1)

That's just an example, it happens everywhere that react-location is used in the app.

After digging into resolver.js, I narrowed it down to this:

Cannot find module 'react-location' from '/Users/[username]/projects/[projectname]/src/_shared/testUtils'
    at resolveSync (/Users/[username]/projects/[projectname]/node_modules/resolve/lib/sync.js:111:15)

Couldn't work out what's going on deeper than that.

Since I'm using CRA my jest config is very minimal, it's just this:

"jest": {
    "globalSetup": "./src/_shared/testUtils/timezone.js"
  }

I have tried:

But still the same error. My package.json after updating to latest versions:

Here is the renderComponent file:

import { render } from '@testing-library/react';
import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from 'react-query';
import { ChakraProvider } from '@chakra-ui/react';
import theme from '_shared/designSystem/theme';
import { Router, ReactLocation, createMemoryHistory } from 'react-location';
import { authenticatedRoutes } from 'routes';

// Renders the component wrapped in Chakra and React Query
export const renderComponent = (component) => {
  const queryClient = new QueryClient({
    defaultOptions: {
      queries: { retry: false, staleTime: 2500 }
    }
  });

  const testNode = render(
    <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
      <ChakraProvider resetCSS={false} theme={theme}>
        {component}
      </ChakraProvider>
    </QueryClientProvider>
  );

  return { testNode };
};

// Renders the whole app at a specific route if given
export const renderComponentWithRoute = (component, route) => {
  const history = createMemoryHistory({ initialEntries: [route] });
  const location = new ReactLocation({ history });

  const queryClient = new QueryClient({
    defaultOptions: {
      queries: { retry: false, staleTime: 2500 }
    }
  });

  const testNode = render(
    <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
      <ChakraProvider resetCSS={false} theme={theme}>
        <Router location={location} routes={authenticatedRoutes}>
          {component}
        </Router>
      </ChakraProvider>
    </QueryClientProvider>
  );

  return { testNode };
};
Solution

  • The non-scoped variant of the react-location package isn't published correctly.

    When you investigate the package.json for the installed react-location package, you find this:

      "main": "build/cjs/index.js",

    The main entry points to module location that doesn't exist within the package. That's why there is an error about the module not being found.

    I recommend switching to the scoped version. In your package.json, use

    "@tanstack/react-location": "^3.3.4",

    And in your import, use

    import { Router, ReactLocation, createMemoryHistory } from '@tanstack/react-location';
