package.json not being read on AWS Beanstalk

I deployed a simple app to Beanstalk via terminal using eb deploy I have a package.json file in the main folder of my app like normal.

But it seems that when i do eb logs it doesn't read the package.json file.

npm ERR! syscall open

npm ERR! enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/var/app/current/package.json'
npm ERR! enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/var/app/current/package.json'
npm ERR! enoent This is most likely not a problem with npm itself
npm ERR! enoent and is related to npm not being able to find a file.
