Cannot find module 'lodash'

[softshipper]

Hi all
I am trying to setup for the first time bazel with rules_nodejs on the dummy project.
The project structure is organised as follows:

The folder app1 contains NODE application and the folder app2 will be a GO based application.

The index.js is a very simple application:

const _ = require("lodash");

const numbers = [1, 5, 8, 10, 1, 5, 15, 42, 5];
const uniqNumbers = _.uniq(numbers);
console.log(uniqNumbers);

Running the application with the command:

bazel run //app1

it shows the error message:

ERROR: An error occurred during the fetch of repository 'app1':

I assume the problem is the lodash module is missing. How can I do yarn install with bazel command?
All source files can be found here:

And also could anyone please explain the purpose of yarn_install rule?

Best regards
