Netlify Build Fails Due to Private Git Dependency (plugin-image-zoom) #248
Description
Task description:
- The Netlify build is currently failing during the dependency installation step with the following error:
Host key verification failed.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
...
Command: git ls-remote --tags --heads ssh://[email protected]/flexanalytics/plugin-image-zoom.git
-
This happens because the project depends on a private GitHub repository via SSH in package.json. However, open-source projects must use only publicly accessible dependencies so that anyone (including CI services like Netlify) can build the site without special access.
-
The goal of this task is to replace the private SSH dependency with the publicly available npm package docusaurus-plugin-image-zoom .
Solution:
- Remove the current private dependency (likely listed as "plugin-image-zoom": "git+ssh://..." in package.json).
- Install the official public plugin:
yarn remove plugin-image-zoom
yarn add docusaurus-plugin-image-zoom
- Update docusaurus.config.js to reference the plugin by its full name:
plugins: [
// ...
"docusaurus-plugin-image-zoom", // use full package name
// ...
]
- Commit the updated package.json and yarn.lock.
