Why is npm not installing some folders?

Question

I forked primeng's repository and made one small modification. When I npm install my repo it's giving me this error:

[email protected]  (git://github.com/matthieu- D/primeng.git#cec36bf71efe96b8a25d5d03f0c7d4ca6762443d)
└── UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY [email protected]

After installation, I have some files but others (components for example) are missing.

I have this package.json in my local project:

"@angular/common": "2.0.0-rc.4",
"@angular/compiler": "2.0.0-rc.4",
"@angular/core": "2.0.0-rc.4",
"@angular/forms": "0.2.0",
"@angular/http": "2.0.0-rc.4",
"@angular/platform-browser": "2.0.0-rc.4",
"@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "2.0.0-rc.4",
"@angular/router": "3.0.0-beta.2",
"primeng": "git://github.com/matthieu-D/primeng.git",
"primeui": "^4.1.12",
"rxjs": "^5.0.0-beta.6",
"zone.js": "^0.6.12"

I suspect the problem would be local and not from the fork. PS: I forked another project ng2-translate and the src folder doesn't get installed: https://github.com/matthieu-D/ng2-translate
I'm doing a :

npm install git://github.com/matthieu-D/ng2-translate.git

If I install the non-forked through through npm primeng, I get the errors but everything is cloned perfectly.
However if I install the non-forked through npm install github ... some folders don't install.
It's either I'm using the wrong command or the repo somehow don't support installation through github.

I guess you would need to update your package "rxjs": "^5.0.0-beta.6" like

npm update --save [email protected]

I'm not pretty sure as I'm now get used to npm, but that's what the error say to me.

Hope this helps !

Tried your command, nothing changed. Then I did npm install of .10. UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY [email protected] npm WARN @angular/[email protected] requires a peer of [email protected] but none was installed. npm WARN @angular/[email protected] requires a peer of [email protected] but none was installed. npm WARN @angular/[email protected] requires a peer of [email protected] but none was installed. – Matthieu Drula Jul 20 '16 at 19:55
Try by uninstalling .6 and installing .10 with `npm uninstall --save [email protected]` and then `npm uninstall --save [email protected]` – Elwi Jul 21 '16 at 15:40
Also, try by looking which exactly packages do you have, see this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/a/10986132/1536999 – Elwi Jul 21 '16 at 15:41
Hm I have no hint what is going on here. I forked the project https://github.com/matthieu-D/primeng, I npm install in a clean space with nothing, no dep. I get no errors but whatever I do, npm only installs 3 files when there are a lot more to install. By the way the fork can be cleanly installed doing : npm install primeng-fork. – Matthieu Drula Jul 21 '16 at 16:47
Just created a repo from scratch. Added components, gitignore. Everything is good. Added npmignore, components disappeared. Erased: *.ts !*.d.ts from npmignore component is back. – Matthieu Drula Jul 26 '16 at 06:34
