MasterReact-Section 8- Calling Backend Services (Cannot find module 'joi')

Hi Mosh and All,

I enrolled the course and currently learning until the Section 8- Calling Backend Services. I downloaded the folder and go to vidly-api-node. I could not populate the data. I am strongly believe that i need to install additional some libraries but don’t know which one ? I was trying with latest node, npm, joi but still not working.

I typed node seed.js and then error message displayed. Please see the attached file.

error_cant find module joi

It would be better you written down which version of any libraries you were using in the project.

Please support me.

Best regards,
Thang

Hi EmraanKhan,

My problem has been solved by myself. What i have been done was. I created a new reactapp and moved all files to my new project and then re-install libraries according to the errors and which library did not work well i found lower version to make sure it works.

Now, I created DB with MongDB and can make connection to DB through port 3900. However, I could not send request to server to implement “Save” function. I am strongly believe that the issue is all about

await saveMovie(this.state.data);

error-save-movie-axios-put

I hope Mosh can have look at this and update this for us.

Error came from the vidly-api-node

My Problem has been solved. Thank All.

This is a problem with bcrypt (experienced this earlier in the course). On Windows in command prompt do this:

npm uninstall --save bcrypt
npm install --save bcrypt-nodejs

Then you should be able to run

node seed.js

I did the course some time ago and there where hiccups here and there. I remember there was a problem of this kind.

Sometimes your code won’t work but the solution is in the next video. That may be a bit frustrating when you are shown a working app and therefore you expect it to work locally because you code along or whatnot.

For instance I remember there was a cyclic call in services and it was solved in the next video.

thanks for share your solution this class was really pain in ass

this doesnt work for me
