Ionic-cli: Ionic info reports error after upgrading to 3.0 release

[yuricamara]

From ionic info:

[ERROR] Error occurred while loading plugins. CLI functionality may be limited.
[ERROR] No updates found after plugin error--please report this issue.

global packages:

@ionic/cli-utils : 1.0.0
Ionic CLI        : 3.0.0

System:

Node       : v6.9.1
OS         : Windows 10
Xcode      : not installed
ios-deploy : not installed
ios-sim    : not installed

This happened after that I reproduced the steps to upgrade from this link:
Announcing Ionic CLI v3

From package.json

"@ionic/app-scripts": "1.3.6",
"@ionic/cli-plugin-cordova": "1.0.0",
"@ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular": "1.0.0",
"ionic-angular": "3.1.1"

I saw this warn too after install the cli-plugins:

npm WARN @ionic/[email protected] requires a peer of strip-ansi@^3.0.1 but none was installed.

This was my first install of Ionic cli v3.

Steps to reproduce:
From this link to Ionic Angular : Announcing Ionic CLI v3

Other information: (e.g. stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, stackoverflow links, forum links, etc)

Suggestion:
In package.json of cli-utils, change from:

  "peerDependencies": {
    "strip-ansi": "^3.0.1"
  }

to:

  "peerDependencies": {
    "strip-ansi": "^3.0.0"
  }

@yuricamara Please also update your plugins.

For Ionic Angular:

npm install --save-dev --save-exact @ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular@latest
npm install --save-dev --save-exact @ionic/cli-plugin-cordova@latest

For Ionic 1:

npm install --save-dev --save-exact @ionic/cli-plugin-ionic1@latest
npm install --save-dev --save-exact @ionic/cli-plugin-cordova@latest

@dwieeb , I had already the last versions of these plugins.

" For Ionic Angular projects, make sure 'ionic-angular' exists in the dependencies attribute of package.json."
The problem was that. I had moved ionic-angular to devDependencies. When I put it back to dependecies the issue was solved.

Why do you impose that? I think we could decide between place it in 'devDependencies' or 'dependencies'. I don't put any front-end dependency as 'dependecies'.

I use AWS Beanstalk with a command that install automatically only the packages in 'dependecies'. So, only back-end packages are placed there. It will be lost of time to install ionic-angular in my server.

Could you consider to change that?

@yuricamara Unless I'm misunderstanding, you're combining your front-end and back-end into a single package. That's not what dependencies and devDependencies were meant to differentiate.

That error goes on to explain an alternative option you can do to bypass it.

[yuricamara]

Yes! In package.json.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, it is possible to have a "package.json" to front-end and another "package.json" to a Node back-end. I did't even know that. I will search information about it. It would be great to separate them.
