How can I generate a package.lock.json via the command line? I tried to run npm install, npm update, npm ci, npm ci --production. Everything failed. Usually a npm install do the job. I also tried the promising npm install --package-lock without success.
I want one to have one in local so I could push it to the build in my ci.

You can see the failed job on Gitlab.
The gitlab-ci.yml used is the one from the vuejs's official documentation. The vuejs code was originally written on https://codesandbox.io.
As far as I know, my node, my npm and my OS (Windows) up to date.
