Gibberish main window

garyrob opened this issue · 7 comments

The first time I do npm start, the attached screenshot is the window I see. This is on MacOS 11.6.

I did have some other problems getting it running at all for the first time. I was able to get past them, but I am mentioning them here in case they're related. The first is described at this link, which was resolved by following the "Try the following" comment at the bottom of the linked page. The other was resolved by doing export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider.

I'm no longer concerned about those earlier problems, but obviously, the screenshot shows a serious current problem.

svelte-nodegui main window

Could you try deleting the package-lock.json and reinstalling the dependencies and seeing whether it improves things?

Basically I can’t explain the issue so I can only conclude that NodeGUI itself (which Svelte NodeGUI depends upon) has changed since I was last working on this.

@shirakaba , with all respects to your efforts with this project, I already explained the same problem about rendering in #68 and said that it started with @nodegui/svelte-nodegui@0.0.4.

On my end, I never saw such problems in versions following 0.0.4, so I don’t have much to go on.

Can you try pinning your @nodegui/nodegui dependency to be exactly this version and tell me whether it helps?

npm install --save --save-exact @nodegui/nodegui@0.30.2

[Sorry for the slow response; I fell quite ill and basically dropped out of normal life for a couple days.]

Hmm. If I use that version of nodegui (0.30.2) I get the error I'll paste below when I do npm run dev. It's because of that that I found this page and used version 0.1.2 instead, which did eliminate the error... at the cost, I now assume, of causing the gibberish output. Obvious, 0.1.2 is MUCH earlier, so using it isn't really a viable fix. But why do current versions cause this error on my machine? I'm running node 17.0.1.

Obvious, 0.1.2 is MUCH earlier, so using it isn't really a viable fix.

0.1.2 is the latest version of @nodegui/svelte-nodegui. Unless you're talking about @nodegui/nodegui – but I've never developed against version 0.1.2 of that, so let's not go down that rabbit hole.

Obvious, 0.1.2 is MUCH earlier, so using it isn't really a viable fix.

No idea. Doesn't happen on my side, and I've looked into it in other issue threads without any luck. My working setup:

  • Node.js v14.6.0 (this is probably the main factor)
  • macOS Big Sur

As the issue doesn't reproduce on my setup, I'm afraid I must rely on other users to get to the bottom of it!

But why do current versions cause this error on my machine?

Current versions of @nodegui/nodegui? I don't know. I only developed against version 0.30.2, so if there have been any breaking changes since, it's unexpected, and I simply suggest continuing to use only v0.30.2 of @nodegui/nodegui.

It could also be that the starter template is not quite right. You could try cloning the main @nodegui/svelte-nodegui repository and seeing whether the included example app runs any better than the starter template does. If so, you can then try determining what's different between the two.

Sorry about the version number confusion... as I mentioned above I was quite ill for a couple days and am still not fully recovered or up to my normal level of thinking!

I just wanted to try svelte-nodegui out, but couldn't because of the errors mentioned above. I'm not sure I'll be able to spend more time investigating it, although I'd like to. I'll post here if I do.

Closed in favour of #72.
