"Error: Error: Failed to load the 'package.json' file, did you setup your project correctly?"

Bug Report

Current behavior

Running action in GitHub, get error that can’t load package.json.

Expected behavior

Package.json is loaded

Others: Action:

on:
  pull_request:
    branches: [develop]

jobs:
  lint_and_build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: Checkout Repo
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Directory change
        run: |
          cd <nx_directory>

      - name: Nrwl Nx
        uses: MansaGroup/nrwl-nx-action@v2.0.3
        with:
          targets: lint, build

Output:

Run MansaGroup/nrwl-nx-action@v2.0.3 🔍 Ensuring Nx is available Error: Error: Failed to load the ‘package.json’ file, did you setup your project correctly?

I put a pwd and ls in the Directory Change step to ensure I was in the right place, the output included the proper package.json file.

It works at the latest HEAD if you regenerate the dist/index.js file with npm run package.

Looks like a new release build just needs to be made to fix this.

I’ll create a new release then! Thanks for pointing out!

Thanks for the quick reply! That makes sense. So it seems like I’ll have to do my npm ci in each job too, which at that point, it seems best to just have everything together in one job.
