Error: Cannot retrieve configuration for preset node.

in an existing yarn/npm repository, with a valid package.json the yarn gitmoji-changelog or yarn gitmoji-changelog --init does not work for me.

I get the following error:

$ /Users/mark/ypm/colonynetworks/test-pwa/node_modules/.bin/gitmoji-changelog
▶  start     gitmoji-changelog v2.2.0
ℹ  info      init ./CHANGELOG.md
ℹ  info      No custom configuration found
ℹ  info      use preset node
✖  error     Error: Cannot retrieve configuration for preset node. 
    at main (/Users/mark/ypm/test-pwa/node_modules/gitmoji-changelog/src/cli.js:56:13)

I do not have a CHANGELOG.md already.

I have a package.json file with the version on line 3:

{
  "name": "test-pwa",
  "version": "0.1.4",
  "description": "testing PWAs",
  ...

since I just need the node preset, I did not setup a .gitmoji-changelogrc file

I installed it like so: yarn add -D gitmoji-changelog and running it with yarn.

I also tried running it with npx but same error.

I'm in a "normal" repo, not a monorepo and the package.json is at the root of my application, same place as I run the command.

Any idea why it can't retrieve the Configuration?

@frinyvonnick I found the issue and opened a PR: https://github.com/frinyvonnick/gitmoji-changelog/pull/206

when const packageInfo = await readPkgUp()

is resolved in my repository I get this structure:

packageInfo {
  packageJson: {
    name: 'test-pwa',
    version: '0.1.4',
    description: 'testing PWAs',

the node preset expects to see:

packageInfo {
  pkg: { ... }

After some investigating I found that newer versions of https://github.com/sindresorhus/read-pkg-up changes the name from pkg to packageJson

Even though I have never manually installed read-pkg-up, I have the following in my yarn.lock file.

Likely. one of the newer versions are being used when I'm running gitmoji-changelog, and the new naming scheme is not found in the node preset.

The PR I submitted, supports both cases without upgrading read-pkg-up.

Alternatively you can lock in the version to force an older compatible version of the package to run. Or upgrade the package and change the name to only support "packageJson"
