Fix versions from upstream modules

[remkolodder]

The latest versions from Chalk and Got require "ESM" and a different way of using the code. Require becomes import and more changes like that. To fix this, use the old version that is also in the docker image.

Attempted to try to find an old version but no luck. Do you have an older version that does not error with 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'?

Hi Hugo,

yes, well if you use the version that I specify in package.json it will pull in the correct versions. You have to install the version on my temp branch:

npm install https://github.com/remkolodder/vmw-sdk
and
npm install https://github.com/remkolodder/vmw-cli
to have them going.

I use them at work regularly without issues :-)
Thanks
Remko

I'm not sure if I'm doing this incorrectly. Need an idiots guide.

npm install https://github.com/remkolodder/vmw-sdk npm ERR! code ENOENT npm ERR! syscall spawn git npm ERR! path git npm ERR! errno -2 npm ERR! enoent Error while executing: npm ERR! enoent undefined ls-remote -h -t https://github.com/remkolodder/vmw-sdk.git npm ERR! enoent npm ERR! enoent npm ERR! enoent spawn git ENOENT npm ERR! enoent This is related to npm not being able to find a file. npm ERR! enoent

Hi,

I am sorry, the git part is appended:

npm install https://github.com/remkolodder/vmw-sdk.git --global
npm install https://github.com/remkolodder/vmw-cli.git --global

This works for us and uses the working versions of the software :)

Ah but you do not have git available?

[hugopow]

That was it! Forgot to install git onto my new docker image! Thanks for the help, working now.

I have added a part of the pull request to initialise the storage for the cache. The "init()" was missing from the cache storage, and therefor breaking my usage of the vmw-cli application. After adding this, caching works again and i can read the vmware upstream repositories.

Please consider merging these, in addition to the other update (#13) that brings this into a more future proof form.
