docsify fails under yarn pnp strict mode due to missing ansi-colors dependency

[tripplilley]

Yarn (v2/3) by default operates in a strict Plug'n'Play mode which does not allow directly loading indirect dependencies.

lib/commands/init.js directly requires ansi-colors, but it's not listed in package.json.

yarn run docsify, therefore, fails (even if docsify-cli is correctly registered in package.json).

Adding "ansi-colors": "^4.1.1" to dependencies should be enough (I chose that version because it's what's already in package-lock.json from an indirect dependency).

$ yarn run docsify
/Users/tlilley/projects/veatech/sbx/smithy/.pnp.cjs:11796
    throw firstError;
    ^

Error: docsify-cli tried to access ansi-colors, but it isn't declared in its dependencies; this makes the require call ambiguous and unsound.

For anyone else dealing with this, you can work around it by using "loose" Plug'n'Play mode until there's an update.

$ yarn config set pnpMode loose
➤ YN0000: Successfully set pnpMode to 'loose'

You'll also need to remove the cached Plug'n'Play install file and reinstall your dependencies:

$ rm .pnp.cjs
$ yarn install
➤ YN0000: ┌ Resolution step
➤ YN0000: └ Completed
➤ YN0000: ┌ Fetch step
➤ YN0000: └ Completed
➤ YN0000: ┌ Link step

Apparently there are other missing dependency declarations, too 😅

Using pnpMode: loose, as noted in my previous comment, still works, but that's a setting that affects the entire project, so it's really just a short-term solution.
