Anyone who experienced this, please help us. Thanks
Need to give full access to package-lock.json
So if you have not done an npm init then that is the issue. npm init initializes the project and will add the node_modules folder to the working directory, this will set it up as a node project. Then to install a dependency just run a npm install <dependency> although I do recommend doing a --save afterwards as well as it just ensures that the package is put in your current directory
$ npm init
$ npm install optionator --save
