`nvm current` reverts the used node version
taktran opened this issue · 14 comments
I noticed that when I create a nvm function, as suggested in the readme, it reverts the currently used node version (from an .nvmrc
file)
ie,
In .config/fish/functions/nvm.fish
function nvm
bass source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh ';' nvm $argv
end
In a directory where I have a .nvmrc
file with iojs-v2.2.1
and I run
$ nvm use
Found /Users/ttt/Work/Dev/folder/.nvmrc with version <iojs-v2.2.1>
Now using io.js v2.2.1
$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/versions/io.js/v2.2.1/bin/node
which is good. But then when I run nvm current
:
$ nvm current
v4.1.1
$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/versions/node/v4.1.1/bin/node
It reverts back to my default
version, which in this case is v4.1.1
. Same for other functions that read the status of nvm
eg, nvm list
Is there a way to run current
or other ready only functions without loading the default?
I was not able to reproduce the bug:
~ $ cat .config/fish/functions/nvm.fish
function nvm
bass source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh ';' nvm $argv
end
~ $ nvm use v4
Now using node v4.1.1 (npm v2.14.4)
~ $ which node
/Users/edc/.nvm/versions/node/v4.1.1/bin/node
~ $ cd tmp
~/tmp $ cat .nvmrc
v0.10.40
~/tmp $ nvm use
Found /Users/edc/tmp/.nvmrc with version <v0.10.40>
Now using node v0.10.40 (npm v1.4.28)
~/tmp $ which node
/Users/edc/.nvm/v0.10.40/bin/node
~/tmp $ nvm current
v0.10.40
~/tmp $ which node
/Users/edc/.nvm/v0.10.40/bin/node
~/tmp $ nvm --version
0.25.4
Have you tried the same flow in bash?
I got mostly what you got
~/tmp$ cat ~/.config/fish/functions/nvm.fish
function nvm
bass source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh ';' nvm $argv
end
~$ nvm current
v4.1.1
~$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/versions/node/v4.1.1/bin/node
~$ cd tmp
~/tmp$ nvm use
Found /Users/ttt/tmp/.nvmrc with version <v0.10.40>
Now using node v0.10.40 (npm v1.4.28)
~/tmp$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/v0.10.40/bin/node
~/tmp$ nvm current
v4.1.1
~/tmp$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/versions/node/v4.1.1/bin/node
~/tmp$ nvm --version
/Users/ttt/.nvm/nvm.sh: line 2188: echo: write error: Broken pipe
0.28.0
This bit might say something /Users/ttt/.nvm/nvm.sh: line 2188: echo: write error: Broken pipe
, which points to the 2nd line here
nvm_supports_source_options() {
[ "_$(echo 'echo $1' | . /dev/stdin yes 2> /dev/null)" = "_yes" ]
}
Any ideas?
I suspect it's because of nvm
. Is it possible for you to downgrade to 0.27.x? I will test with 0.28.0 if you still have the same problem after downgrade.
Nope, downgrading didn't work:
~$ nvm current
v4.1.1
~$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/versions/node/v4.1.1/bin/node
~$ cd tmp
~/tmp$ nvm use
/Users/ttt/.nvm/nvm.sh: line 2111: echo: write error: Broken pipe
Found /Users/ttt/tmp/.nvmrc with version <v0.10.40>
Now using node v0.10.40 (npm v1.4.28)
~/tmp$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/v0.10.40/bin/node
~/tmp$ nvm current
v4.1.1
~/tmp$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/versions/node/v4.1.1/bin/node
~/tmp$ nvm --version
0.27.1
I've also tried with 0.27.0
, and 0.25.4
(the one you were using)
I don't think it is nvm
because it works fine when I switch to bash and run the exact commands.
I'm thinking it's something to do with the bass source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh
line in the nvm
function
I found the problem. It was because I had the default
alias. Removing the default
alias allows nvm
to just use the previously set nvm
version ie,
~$ nvm current
system
~$ which node
/usr/local/bin/node
~$ cd tmp
~/tmp$ nvm use
Found /Users/ttt/tmp/.nvmrc with version <v0.10.40>
Now using node v0.10.40 (npm v1.4.28)
~/tmp$ nvm current
v0.10.40
~/tmp$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/v0.10.40/bin/node
~/tmp$ cd ..
~$ nvm current
v0.10.40
~$ which node
/Users/ttt/.nvm/v0.10.40/bin/node
Note how the nvm version is the same even after going to a different directory. In the previous case, the default
would override this.
Bash does do what is expected though, so it's still kind of a bug in the bass version. However, it works for me without default
, so I'm good =)
Up to you, what you want to do with this 🐛 =)
Glad to hear it works out!
I was able to reproduce it, and the bug was because nvm.sh
switches to the default every time it is source'd. Bass has to source nvm.sh
on every nvm command, so this is a limitation that's a bit hard to address. For now, I would suggest to not add a default
alias as a workaround. I'll leave this open to see if I can come up with a fix.
Can bass not do something along the lines of (pseudocode) "if nvm is already sourced, and nvm current
works, store that value in a variable, and after sourcing nvm, nvm use --silent $previousValue
"?
It's slightly inefficient but not that bad.
Does fish + bass support sourcing with arguments? if so, I would consider adding (in addition to the --install
argument that's already there) a --no-use
argument that bypassed the auto-use behavior.
Does fish + bass support sourcing with arguments
The short answer is yes. The sourcing is done by bash, so as long as bash supports it, it works. I tested with the following fish function:
$ cat ~/.config/fish/functions/nvm.fish
function nvm
bass source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh --no-use ';' nvm $argv
end
Then I modified nvm.sh to add support of --no-use

Now it works flawlessly:
$ cat .nvmrc
v4.1.1
$ nvm use default
Now using node v0.10.41 (npm v1.4.29)
$ nvm current
v0.10.41
$ nvm use system
Now using system version of node: v0.12.2 (npm v2.7.5)
$ nvm current
system
$ nvm use
Found /private/tmp/.nvmrc with version <v4.1.1>
Now using node v4.1.1 (npm v2.14.4)
/private/tmp
$ nvm current
v4.1.1
I think it's a pretty good solution!
Awesome. I'll add it as part of nvm-sh/nvm#972 (and the ordering of --install
or --no-use
won't actually matter, but --no-use
will of course trump --install
) and update here when it's released.
Done and released in v0.30.2.
Great, thanks!
