How to use external modules inside adobe runtime

Avatar

Level 2

Hello,

 

I'm new in Adobe Runtime and trying to learn usage of the actions. But i'm stuck with usage of a new modules.

For example i have following action created:

const fetch = require('node-fetch')
const FormData = require('form-data')
async function main(params) {
        let formDataVar = new FormData();
}
Where before that i have install my module : npm install --save form-data
It's visible inside my package.json:
{
  "name": "runtimeHelloWorld",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "@adobe/aio-sdk": "^3.0.0",
     ...
    "core-js": "^3.6.4",
    "form-data": "^4.0.0",
    "node-fetch": "^2.6.0",
    ...
  },
 
I have executed "npm install" and build my app as well. But when i create or update my action after invoke it i got:
{
"error": "Initialization has failed due to: Error: Cannot find module 'form-data'
Require stack:
- /nodejsAction/runner.js

at initCode (/nodejsAction/src/service.js:168:24)
at /nodejsAction/app.js:74:13"
}

What is that i'm doing wrong or missing into my actions?
P.S. if i remove declaration of the form-data my action is working fine locally. 
 
I notice that i post the question on the wrong place. If possible some Admin or Moderator delete this post
