I'm trying to use the CDB promoted links webpart (from github) for modern pages but I need to make changes to the code (just the colours, nothing structural), So far so good- runs on the workbench but I can't get it to turn into a working sppkg file. I get the following error:

through a process of trial and error I have managed to get a deployable web part.... thing is that it doesn't show up on any page when I go to add a webpart....

  • Can you post the github link ? Will be easier to find the error from there.

Sorry, this is a partial answer. For your now edited question, have you tried removing the "includeClientSideAssets" flag from the package-solution.json file? I experienced this earlier and it at least ran, I did not test the webpart was working as expected

Following on from that, I found this question via Google as I'm having the exact error you were getting before you edited your question on another webpart.

C:\cdb-promoted-links-master>gulp serve
Build target: DEBUG
C:\cdb-promoted-links-master\node_modules\@microsoft\node-core- 
library\lib\JsonSchema.js:178
    throw new Error(prefix + os.EOL +
    ^

Error: JSON validation failed:
C:\cdb-promoted-links-master\config\tslint.json

What did you do to fix it?

EDIT: There's a new version of SPFx, v1.6 that includes some breaking changes to how the tslint file works. Details here - https://github.com/SharePoint/sp-dev-docs/wiki/SharePoint-Framework-v1.6-release-notes

  • Yeah I tried removing the includeclientsideassets and although it does run it doesn't work as a webpart. The link given does give me a clue so thank you.

  • Finally got it to turn to a webpart that would upload by creating a new project with the newest version of SPFx and using some of the files from that.
