6 years ago Up until today, I was getting an error when running the js, saying that one of the packages I was using couldn't be found. I analyzed the elmStaticHtml function and found that it was creating a new directory, .elm-static-html, and also creating a new elm-package.json file and elm-stuff directory based off of my project's elm-package.json. I looked in that elm-stuff folder, and found out that any package which isn't under elm-lang (core, html) wasn't actually in the directory, even though it is referenced in the new elm-package.json file, which is why the error was occurring. I deleted that elm-stuff folder and ran elm-package install inside of .elm-static-html, which installed everything correctly and got rid of the error message.
What happens if you delete that folder, then run elm-static-html-lib? Does it install the packages correctly? Can you create a minimal example with that elm-package.json and a rendered view the way you have it set up?
However, I now notice problems with the way my view is rendered, and I suspect it is because elm-static-html-lib doesn't handle the two non elm-lang packages I'm using, style-elements and elm-exts, properly. I wanted to know if you were aware of problems with using non elm-lang packages with elm-static-html-lib, and if so, is there a way to fix them? I also wanted to bring your attention to the fact that non elm-lang packages aren't installed when generating .elm-static-html's elm-stuff folder. thanks.
Third party packages work fine and have been working fine for me, so it's likely something else to blame.

Hi, I've been using elm-static-html-lib to generate html using elm code almost exactly how you do in your example. I use node to run a javascript file which calls the elmStaticLib function, giving my elm module's model, json decoder and view as arguments.
