Error: Loading PostCSS Plugin failed: Cannot find module 'postcss-import' (Vue 2)

Question

I create my first npm package. I published it on npmjs and encountered the error of the lack of the 'postcss-import' module after installing the package in the project and running it. Tell me, where and in which file may the problem be? I tried all the ways and nothing works.Maybe something is wrong with these files?

This is the 'package.json' file of my package

{
  "_from": "some_package",
  "_inBundle": false,
  "_integrity": "sha512-***",
  "_location": "/some_package",
  "_phantomChildren": {},
  "_requested": {
    "type": "tag",
    "registry": true,
    "raw": "some_package",
    "name": "some_package",
    "escapedName": "some_package",
    "rawSpec": "",
    "saveSpec": null,
    "fetchSpec": "latest"
  },
  "_requiredBy": [
    "#USER",
    "/"
  ],
  "_resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/some_package/-/some_package-1.0.1.tgz",

  },
  "bugs": {
    "url": "https://github.com/user/some_package/issues"
  },
  "homepage": "https://github.com/user/some_package#readme"
}

This is the '.postcssrc.js' file of my package

module.exports = {
  "plugins": {
    "postcss-import": {},
    "postcss-url": {},
    // to edit target browsers: use "browserslist" field in package.json
    "autoprefixer": {}
  }
}

Solution

You can try:

npm install --save-dev postcss-import

What do you mean by "running" it. The postcss-import plugin is in your devDependencies. A npm install packagename does install these.
