Error when trying to migrate Gatsby App from "netlify-cms-app" to "decap-cms-app"

[praharsh23]

Hi all,

I'm receiving an error when trying to migrate from "netlify-cms-app" to "decap-cms-app".

Any suggestions to resolve this?

Also, is there any doc to help with migration of existing apps that use netlify-cms to decap-cms?

Steps taken:

1. npm uninstall netlify-cms-app
2. npm install decap-cms-app
3. In cms.js of my App changed the import as follows

import CMS from 'decap-cms-app'
instead of
import CMS from 'netlify-cms-app'

Here is the error message with gatsby build

 ERROR #11321  PLUGIN

"gatsby-plugin-netlify-cms" threw an error while running the onCreateWebpackConfig lifecycle:

Cannot find module 'netlify-cms-app\dist\netlify-cms-app.js'

This seems to be a problem with gatsby-plugin-netlify-cms. The package is maintained by Gatsby, so I suggest that you open an issue with them.

Thanks for the response. Started a discussion in the Gatsby forum here: gatsbyjs/gatsby#38546
