Topic: How install React Plugins such as mdb-react-fileupload
I have MDB React Pro Bundle with all Plugins.
When I use import MDBFileupload from 'mdb-react-fileupload';
I get Module not found: Can't resolve 'mdb-react-fileupload' in '/Users/ ... /src
I've tried many things in package.json, removing yarn.lock and node_modules, and following multiple forum posts. Nothing helps. I have a fairly simple and clean create-react-app environment.
I'm loading mdt-react this way "mdbreact": "git+https://oauth2:MY_TOKEN@git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/re-pro.git",
What is the proper way to install plugins? Isn't there a simple and documented solution that doesn't involve manually copying dependencies from one package.json to another?
@Piotr Glejzer, here's a partial directory listing:
$ ls m* M*
MDB_README.txt mdbreact-5.0.1.tgz
MDB-React-Admin-Pro:
License.pdf package-lock.json public/ src/
mdbreact-5.0.1.tgz package.json source-pack/
MDB-React-Plugin-Pack-New:
MDB-React-Calendar/ MDB-React-FileUpload/ MDB-React-Sortable/ MDB-React-WYSIWYG/ license.pdf*
MDB-React-Color-Picker/ MDB-React-Filter/ MDB-React-Table-Editor/ README.md*
Also, I just ran npm list and was surprised about the mdbreact error (the log has no additional information).
$ npm list

"react-scripts": "4.0.1",
"styled-components": "^5.2.1"
},
My app is otherwise working fine.

so if you want to use a plugin you have to use it from the zip package, we don't have these plugins in re-pro repository
So what does that exactly mean? This is taking days to answer what I thought was a straight-forward question.
What is the full and specific set of instructions for installing and referencing a plug-in (up through the import statement in my React code).
Piotr Glejzer staff commented 4 years ago
We don't have an instruction for plugins installation but if you have an mdb-react-plugin-ack-new you have to unpack all packages and if you want to use some of these you need to create a package with npm pack command and copy and paste this package into your project and add into dependencies for example "mdb-react-calendar": "./mdb-full-calendar-4.26.1.tgz".
