Type of issue

• Hello, I installed yo + generator-code as a dev dependancies by yarn then when ever I try to run npx yo code in the first time I got

import { loadFile } from 'mem-fs';
         ^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: The requested module 'mem-fs' does not provide an export named 'loadFile'
    at ModuleJob._instantiate (node:internal/modules/esm/module_job:131:21)

    at async E:\VSCODE Extensions\locales generator\node_modules\yo\lib\cli.js:193:3

• So I navigated to mem-fs library to export it and after export it I got the following error

file:///E:/VSCODE%20Extensions/locales%20generator/node_modules/mem-fs-editor/dist/actions/commit.js:1
import { isFileTransform } from 'mem-fs';
         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

• So as a try I tried to remove export it because I couldn't find it in mem-fs so i replaced it by true and the tool is running but after questions and when it comes to the last step to generate the files I got that error

Writing in E:\VSCODE Extensions\locales generator\localesgen...
Error code 

sharedFs.pipeline is not a function

• Please release a new update to fix those issues

My environment

• OS version/details: Windows 10 64-bit
• Node version: 20.9.0
• yarn version: 1.22.21
• Version of yo : 5.0.0

Expected behavior

• Just run and ask the questions then generate the files

Current behavior

• Just a collection of errors

Also tested on the following without success:

• OS: Alpine, Debian bookworm (both via docker node image), MacOs Ventura 13.6.2
• Node versions: 18.19.0, 20.9.0
• yarn versions: 1.22.21, 4.0.2
• Version of yo : 5.0.0

Switching to using npm resolves the issue so I'm not sure why it is failing with yarn. Not sure, but this might also be related to #800.

It's failing even with pnpm. Again, switching to npm resolves the issue.

Figure out where is your global node_module, for example, I am using yarn
Now step all is in global node_module

Step: here is something to check

1. Open mem-fs-editor -> package.json to check peerDependencies
   👇

2. open mem-fs -> package.json to check current lib version

3. Go to the up level of the global node_module folder

yarn add mem-fs
npm install mem-fs

If use pnpm, you may check & install same as this

4. Then you can check installed mem-fs version also
5. Now try to use yo
