Error: Cannot find module code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND', (metaplex) - solana

Question

im heaving trouble uploading my NFT to the devnet in solana using metaplex cli
im following a tutorial on buildspace: https://buildspace.so/p/ship-solana-nft-collection/
(should be noted! im using WSL)
i followed as instructed and when i needed to upload my nfts throught metaplex i ran the command:
ts-node ~/metaplex/js/packages/cli/src/candy-machine-v2-cli.ts upload -e devnet -k ~/.config/solana/devnet.json -cp config.json ./assets
and then this eror pops up:

i proceeded to inspect where the warning came from using:
node --trace-warnings ...
and it showed me this:

=========================================================================================
i thought maybe something wrong with the way installed metaplex, so i deleted every thing and re installed but nothing..
i installed metaplex files in home/deathsn1per/metaplex...
from what little i understand this is a problem with the modules, something went wrong with the installetion but i cant figure out what is it...
so im kinda lost as where to look even. or what to do to fix it, any help would be very nice!
i hope i provided with enough info (if needed more info pls dont kill just tell me what you need to know ;) )

Answer 1

The tutorial is way outdated. The tool that you are trying to use is deprecated and not supported anymore.
You should be using sugar instead which is a cli that is way faster and more reliable than the old js cli.
You can find a tutorial on the official docs here:
