我装webpack的时候也出现了这个问题

Refusing to install webpack as a dependency of itself

当时我的package.json是这个样子的

{
  "name": "webpack",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "devDependencies": {

  }
}

然后我把name字段改成webpacktest就好了，没错！就好了，太神奇了

{
  "name": "webpacktest",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "devDependencies": {
    "gulp": "^3.9.1",
    "webpack": "^1.13.0"
  }
}

没错，package.json文件的name名字不能跟npm模块相同。

打开 package.json 删除 里面 关于 grunt的信息

网络不好网络不好网络不好

楼上是对的 name不能和devDependencies里的模块名相同
