Custom-Config & Custom UI - "npm install" > npm error code EOVERRIDE / Us

Forge
1

Hi all,

I’m using first time the template for Custom UI/Confluence “confluence-macro-with-custom-configuration”. (latest @forge/cli)

Without any changes in the source code I tried to install on top-level (root dir) with “npm install”
(as stated in the readme file )

I got the error:

verbose stack Error: Override for react@^16 conflicts with direct dependency
verbose stack     at Node.assertRootOverrides (C:\sw\nvm\v22.13.0\node_modules\npm\node_modules\@npmcli\arborist\lib\node.js:1336:29)
verbose stack     at #loadActual (C:\sw\nvm\v22.13.0\node_modules\npm\node_modules\@npmcli\arborist\lib\arborist\load-actual.js:133:24)
verbose stack     at async Promise.all (index 0)
...

This is propably caused by the “overrides” option in the package.json file:

 "devDependencies": {
    "vite": "^5.4.6"
  },
 "dependencies": {
    "@atlaskit/css-reset": "^6.6.2",
    "@forge/bridge": "4.2.0",
    "@forge/resolver": "1.6.3",
    "react": "^16",
    "react-dom": "^16"
  },
  "overrides": {
    "react": "^18.2.0",
    "react-dom": "^18.2.0"
  }

Questions:

  • How can I avoid this error?
  • Is Forge development silently switching to VITE?
  • Is there anything to consider in this regard during development?

Thanks / BR,
Franz
