[BUG] Yarn workspaces w/ Symlinks Breaks npx Invocations #7834
Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
This issue exists in the latest npm version
- I am using the latest npm
Current Behavior
I've had issues invoking a couple of different commands due to the existence of symbolic links in our monorepo using Yarn workspaces. Specifically, I've gotten the error with npx @react-native-vector-icons/codemod and npx @react-native-community/cli config.
I had originally thought it was a bug in @react-native-community/cli and filed a bug there, but then I had the same issue with @react-native-vector-icons/codemod and realized it might be an npx bug, which is why I'm reporting the issue here now.
Expected Behavior
The existence of symbolic links in a monorepo should not break npx commands.
Steps To Reproduce
- Clone this git repo: https://github.com/brianlenz/rncli-symlink-bug
- Run
npx @react-native-community/cli configin the root of the repo or intestsymlinkproj. - Observe error:
Exit prior to config file resolving
