deno -A npm:create-vite@latest doesn't use latest version

[kuchta]

Version: 2.1.10

Running -A npm:create-vite@latest initializes projects with old (non-latest) version.

Can you run with the deno run --reload -A npm:create-vite@latest flag? Otherwise it will use your cached version.

Also, I think you can use deno init --npm vite nowadays instead of that longer command. Probably that should implicitly run with the --reload flag.

Hi @dsherret. deno run --reload did the job, but deno init seems not to reload the cache, unfortunatelly...

If I understand it correctly, then running deno cache -r npm:create-vite before should also do the job, right?

BTW, is there a way to reload everything, or all npm modules, since the following doesn't work (as it probably should, according to documentation`

$ deno cache -h
...
  -r, --reload[=<CACHE_BLOCKLIST>...]  Reload source code cache (recompile TypeScript)
                                         no value                                                 Reload everything
                                         jsr:@std/http/file-server,jsr:@std/assert/assert-equals  Reloads specific modules
                                         npm:                                                     Reload all npm modules
                                         npm:chalk                                                Reload specific npm module
...

$ deno cache -r

$ deno cache -r npm:

You need to provide deno cache <entrypoint> with an entrypoint for it to cache/reload (so that could be a file in your project that uses the dependencies, ex. deno cache -r some_file.ts). I think for that scenario of just reloading all npm/jsr packages specified in the deno.json or package.json you can use deno install --reload
