NPM Packages issue in cordova-electron

["Nair, Rahul" <rn...@dxc.com>]

Hi,

               We have been using the Apache Cordova to develop a native windows application using the electron platform. We have run into an issue when we try to work with any NPM package in the Electron platform. On installing any NPM package in the cordova electron app, it works fine if we run the command "cordova run electron". The same doesn't work when we run the command "cordova build electron". It skips the installation of the dependencies mentioned in the package.json.

Our project config and details:

  *   cordova-electron: ^3.0.0
  *   Cordova CLI version: 10.0.0

Thanks & Regards,
Rahul Nair

This email list is for developers working on cordova, and not developers
using cordova.
For support, please ask your question either in our slack community (
http://slack.cordova.io/ ), or on stack-overflow (
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/cordova ) where many questions
are answered.

Cheers,
  Jesse
