I'm developing my own node for the GLPI V10 API, following the tutorial at this link:
https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/creating-nodes/test/run-node-locally/
When I run the command:
BASHnpm run build
I receive the following error message:
BASHnpm ERR! Missing script: "build" npm ERR! npm ERR! To see a list of scripts, run: npm ERR! npm run
I've tried executing the command from the project root, as well as from the /nodes
and /nodes/NasaPics
directories, but the error persists.
What steps should I take to resolve this issue?

It looks like npm can’t find a "build" script defined in your package.json. Here are a few steps to resolve the issue:
Check the package.json file:
Open your package.json in the directory where you expect to run the command. Verify that it contains a "build" script. It should look something like this:
JSON{ "scripts": { "build": "tsc" } }
If the "build" script is missing, add it or adjust it to match your build process (e.g., if you use a bundler or another command).
Confirm you’re in the correct directory:
The build script is read from the package.json in the current working directory. Make sure you’re running npm run build
from the folder where your package.json is located.
If you followed the starter guide (for example, cloning from the n8n-nodes-starter repository), the package.json in that cloned folder should already have the necessary build commands.
Use the starter project as reference:
If you haven't already, consider comparing your project setup with the n8n-nodes-starter repository. The starter contains a package.json with all required scripts. You can clone it and use it as a template for your custom node:
BASHgit clone https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n-nodes-starter.git n8n-nodes-glpi cd n8n-nodes-glpi
Then update the package name and adjust the node code to match the GLPI V10 API integration.
Verify dependencies:
Ensure that you have installed all dependencies. After setting up the package.json with the correct scripts, run:
BASHnpm install
Then try running the build command again.
These steps should help you resolve the missing script issue so that you can build and subsequently test your custom GLPI node locally.
