`yalc publish` fails with error `bob: command not found`

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug Not entirely clear from the Contributing guidelines, but I went ahead and downloaded stripe-react-native as a zip file, unarchived it, cd’d into the folder, then ran yalc publish and got error /bin/sh: bob: command not found

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Download this package
Unarchive
cd package-name
yalc publish

Expected behavior Package should be building locally

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: macOS 11.3
Browser irrelevant
Version of what?

Additional context I’m normally using zsh, which is the default shell cli for mac now, not sure if that is relevant, though.

I tried installing bob using this doc using python3 -m pip install BobBuildTool [--user] but it failed with another error zsh: no matches found: [--user], tried replacing user with my actual username, failed with the same error, tried ommitting [--user] altogether, failed again with no previously-included directories found matching 'docs/_build'.

I’m not able to reproduce this. Did you make sure to run yarn bootstrap before running yalc publish?

ok, yes, I downloaded this package to a separate folder (anywhere on my file system I guess it’s ok because yalc takes care of publishing it in a folder from where it’s going to take it when I used yalc add), did yarn bootstrap and the rest worked fine, thank you.
