json-graphql-server: command not found

[pdehaan]

What you were expecting: npm is unable to find the json-graphql-server command

What happened instead:

npx json-graphql-server db.cjs
sh: json-graphql-server: command not found

ls -lh ./node_modules/.bin
lrwxr-xr-x  1 pdehaan  staff    18B 20 Jul 23:22 acorn -> ../acorn/bin/acorn
lrwxr-xr-x  1 pdehaan  staff    22B 20 Jul 23:22 loose-envify -> ../loose-envify/cli.js
lrwxr-xr-x  1 pdehaan  staff    14B 20 Jul 23:22 mime -> ../mime/cli.js
lrwxr-xr-x  1 pdehaan  staff    20B 20 Jul 23:22 semver -> ../semver/bin/semver

Steps to reproduce: Installed json-graphql-server locally via npm i json-graphql-server -D and populated my db.cjs flie and then tried to run with npx json-graphql-server db.cjs and got the errors above.

Looks like the filename is ./bin/json-graphql-server.cjs. But I think the bin command in package.json still points to ./bin/json-graphql-server.js (and not .cjs)

Workaround is to try and run the json-graphql-server directly from ./node_modules/json-graphql-server/bin/json-graphql-server.cjs and not from ./node_modules/.bin/json-graphql-server` alias.

./node_modules/json-graphql-server/bin/json-graphql-server.cjs db.cjs
