Step 2: Ensure SVGO Is Installed

If you get a “Cannot find module 'svgo'” error upon execution, it often indicates that SVGO is not installed in the correct location. Although you mentioned that SVGO is installed globally, it could be that your project has a conflicting local version.

Checking Installation

First, check which version of SVGO you are using by running:

Verify if a local version exists within your project. If you are using Node.js, a local installation may override the global version.

Step 3: Use Absolute Path for Require

If the global version is correct, you might need to specify the absolute path to SVGO in your configuration file. For example:

This not only helps maintain the quality of your SVG files but also resolves common errors that arise during the configuration process. Should you encounter further issues, re-evaluating your installation paths and project dependencies will often lead to a solution. Happy optimizing!
