Was just trying out this addon and getting the following error:

Error: stderr maxBuffer exceeded

Looks very interesting, so thought it would be useful to post :)

Hey @Globegitter
thank you for reporting the finding. Can you tell me on which platform this error message came up? Did it happen all the time you are using the plugin?

Globegitter commented

I am in Ubuntu 16.04, will try again to see if it happened all the time.

@dprogm This is likely due to the use of child_process.exec. If possible use child_process.spawn.

child_process.exec has this option:

  • maxBuffer Largest amount of data in bytes allowed on stdout or stderr. If exceeded, the child process is terminated. See caveat at maxBuffer and Unicode. Default: 200 * 1024.

child_process.spawn has no such limitation.
