Description

Node version: v12.13 Sails version (sails): none DB adapter & version (e.g. sails-mysql@5.55.5): sails-disk

Hello all, I'm trying to use waterline + sails-disk but when I require/import the adapter from "sails-disk" I encounter two errors:

Cannot find module '/machines/cp'

Error [ImplementationError]: Could not find cp, one of the modules in pkg.machinepack.machines.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers!

Research direction
The error indicates that the `cp` machine is missing from the adapter's dependencies. Check the package.json of sails disk to ensure all required machinepacks are listed. Alternatively, the adapter may need to be used within a full Sails app rather than standalone. Look at the other comments for guidance or report if the issue persists.
