Hello!
Recently, I was trying to make my own plugin for exporting data to pdf. I wanted to use package “pdf-lib”, however I have a small problem: I don’t now how to install packages (yarn add or npm install). I tried installing packages globally, but when I build plugin, I get an error “Error: Cannot find module”. I also tried building built-in “plugin-action-export” and got the same error for package “xlsx”, even though it is installed.
Can you help me? Thanks in advance!
There are two methods you can try:
- Add the dependencies to the
devDependencies
part of the package.json
of your own plugin.
{
"devDependencies": {
"pdf-lib": "xxx"
}
}
Then run yarn install
under the root directory.
- Run
npx lerna add pdf-lib --scope={plugin-package-name} --dev
under the root directory.

Thanks! That worked, but I now have this error when I am trying to build xlsx export plugin(built-in):
Do you know how to fix that?
Build the core packages by running yarn build packages/core
under the root directory before building your own plugin for the first time.
