I've updated my modules in the package.json and I'm now getting the error "Unable to resolve module util from node_modules\uuidv4\build\lib\uuidv4.js: util could not be found within the project."

Of the steps below, I've done #2. I'm not using watchman for #1, I'm using npm instead of yarn for #3, and I don't know what path #4 is referring to. Here is my full output.

error Unable to resolve module util from node_modules\uuidv4\build\lib\uuidv4.js: util could not be found within the project.

If you are sure the module exists, try these steps:

  1. Clear watchman watches: watchman watch-del-all
  2. Delete node_modules: rm -rf node_modules and run yarn install
  3. Reset Metro's cache: yarn start --reset-cache
  4. Remove the cache: rm -rf /tmp/metro-*. Run CLI with --verbose flag for more details. Error: Unable to resolve module util from node_modules\uuidv4\build\lib\uuidv4.js: util could not be found within the project.

I had to roll back:

"uuidv4": "^5.0.1"

Search somewhere you have imported "uuidv4" in your project and remove it.

Delete the node-modules folder from your project and after that run npm-install for generating it again. This worked for me.

None of the answers provided here worked for me. I tried

  • Reverting to "uuidv4": "^5.0.1"
  • Reverting to "uuidv4": "^3.0.1"
  • Deliting the node_modules folder and then running npm i

What fixed it for me was using this UUID generation instead https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-uuid
