No support for NPM projects?
LazaroOnline opened this issue · 7 comments
It is not compatible with NPM projects.
It only seems to work with Yarn managed projects.
Im using npm and getting this error:
yarn : The term 'yarn' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
@LazaroOnline whoops good catch there. I didn't think twice about that because I pretty much entirely use yarn
instead of npm
. I just published a fix to use npm by default
Let me know if that works for you
Sorry, the command still won't work as it is now:
npm run cypress open --config testFiles=${currentlyOpenTabfilePath}
It would only work if you happen to have a script in package.json with that name, which I don't.
You can fix it by changing the command to be like this:
./node_modules/.bin/cypress open --config testFiles="${currentlyOpenTabfilePath}"
as per cypress docs at:
https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/command-line.html#How-to-run-commands
Also you have to wrap the filename with double quotes "" to prevent errors, otherwise you have a command injection vulnerability, for example with a file name like:
"test; calc;.js"
will open the calc in windows right after closing the cypress app.
@LazaroOnline thanks for the help :)
Also you have to wrap the filename with commas to prevent errors, otherwise you have a command injection vulnerability, for example with a file name like:
"test; calc;.js"
will open the calc in windows right after closing the cypress app.
What should that look like in the example code?
@LazaroOnline I've implemented your first suggestion
I meant double quotes, I updated the previous comment.
The fix would be like above:
./node_modules/.bin/cypress open --config testFiles="${currentlyOpenTabfilePath}"
Also notice that in the last commit you wrote open
twice: open open
I've implemented your suggestion @LazaroOnline . Thanks!
