Troubleshooting ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree Error in Angular

When working on your Angular projects, you might encounter various errors, one of which could be the ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree error. This guide aims to help you understand this issue and provide a clear solution to successfully install the Clarity library in your Angular application.

Understanding the Problem

You are trying to install the Clarity library using the command:

However, you are faced with an error. This error commonly occurs due to incompatibilities between different versions of Angular and the Clarity library. Specifically, the issue arises when the version of Angular in your project does not align with the required version for Clarity, leading to conflicts that npm can't resolve. The command output reveals that your Angular version could be 13.0.3, while Clarity might be expecting a version around 12.0.0.

Analyzing the Error Output

Here's a breakdown of the key points from the error message:

Current Angular Version: @ angular/common@ 13.0.3 indicates you are using Angular version 13.

Clarity Version Requirement: Clarity requires @ angular/common@ ^12.0.0, which indicates it is not compatible with Angular 13 (as it expects a previous major version 12).

This indicates that your project's dependencies might be misaligned, specifically between the version of Angular and Clarity you are trying to integrate.

Solutions to the Problem

There are a couple of paths you can take to resolve this dependency conflict. Here are the recommended solutions:

1. Use the --legacy-peer-deps Flag

This approach allows npm to install packages while ignoring strict version compatibility rules. You can run the following command in your terminal:

This command will force the installation of the Clarity library, despite the version conflict, which may be useful if you want to proceed without downgrading your Angular version.

2. Downgrade npm to Version 7.x

If the first solution does not appeal to you or causes further issues, downgrading npm to version 7.x is another strategy. npm version 7 introduced stricter rules for dependency resolution. By downgrading to 7.x, you may find that your dependencies resolve more smoothly.

To downgrade npm, you can use this command:

The ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree error can be frustrating, especially when you're excited to implement new libraries in your projects. By understanding the problem and employing one of the solutions detailed above, you can efficiently resolve this issue and continue with your Angular development.
