Error: Cannot find module ‘webpack-cli/bin/config-yargs‘的解决方法

安装webpack-dev-server包后，配置脚本"dev": "webpack-dev-server"，然后执行npm run dev发现报错：

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:883
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module 'webpack-cli/bin/config-yargs' 

从错误信息我们可以看到其实是webpack-cli缺少了config-yargs模块造成的，
我的包版本如下：

"devDependencies": {
    "webpack": "^5.23.0",
    "webpack-cli": "^4.5.0",
    "webpack-dev-server": "^3.11.2"
  }

解决方法

删除原来的webpack-cli包，降低webpack-cli的版本为 "^3.3.12"即可：

npm uninstall webpack-cli

npm install webpack-cli@3.3.12 --save-dev
