TypeError: Os.tmpDir is not a function when plugin is active on all serverless commands

[derekvincent]

I am using a fresh serverless install (via brew) and when I enable the serverless-offline-python any sls function I try, produces the error below. If I comment the plugin out in the serverless.yml then everything works again (well not testing my Python-based lambda offline).

MacOS: 10.15.3 Node Version: 14.0.0 Framework Version: 1.68.0 Plugin Version: 3.6.6 SDK Version: 2.3.0 Components Version: 2.30.1

> SLS_DEBUG=* sls print

[marcosfede]

same error here, any solutions?

[magdiel01]

@marcosfede as a temporary solution; I switched to node 8 with command n 8 and worked (see n repo)

[aelzeiny]

This is caused by a deprecation of tmpDir in node. You can read more about it here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40913034/

My solution was to do the following:

• open /node_modules/hapi/lib/defaults.js
• Go to line 5 right where it says const Os = require('os');
• Add line Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir;

Works perfectly, but I just have to remember to do this everytime I npm install

[DiogoTheCoder]

@aelzeiny Could you update the dependencies to use @hapi/hapi, since hapi is now deprecated. Having to use serverless-offline instead of serverless-offline-python until this gets resolved 🤷

[scripterkaran]

👍 I am having the same issue, need to update hapi

[aelzeiny]

@DiogoTheCoder Sorry, I'm not a maintainer of this code-base, and I only used it once for a side-project when I ran into this issue. If I were the one to make the change I'll probably break something else. I just thought my comment would be helpful.

Yep, me too.

[ananunaki]

In some caes Windows 10 uses tmpDir ( with camel case ) so you can solve this issue like this

var isWin = process.platform === "win32"; var isLinux = process.platform === "linux"; var os = require('os');

if(isWin){ os.tmpDir = os.tmpDir; } else if (isLinux) { os.tmpDir = os.tmpdir; }

[ajoslin103]

this will only be a problem if you use node > 12

pin your project to use node <= 12 with nvm

echo 'lts/erbium' > .nvmrc nvm use

ref: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm/blob/master/README.md

NodeJS 10 support will be ending very soon.

[ajoslin103]

'NodeJS 10 support will be ending very soon'

very true

'lts/erbium' is Node 12 and good for a little longer

The serverless framework has issues & PRs referring to os.tmpDir so it shouldn't be a problem much longer

[nyan-left]

This may be helpful for anyone that stumbles across this in the future. An automated version of @ananunaki 's solution:

(I have only tested on Darwin)

// fix-sls-offline.js

const fs = require('fs');
const LINE_NUMBER = 6;
const FILE_LOCATION = 'node_modules/hapi/lib/defaults.js'
const INJECT_FIX_STRING = `
var isWin = process.platform === "win32";
var isLinux = process.platform === "linux";
var isDarwin = process.platform === "darwin";
if (isDarwin || isLinux) {
  Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir;
} else if (isWin) {
   Os.tmpDir = os.tmpDir;
}
`

let data = fs.readFileSync(FILE_LOCATION)
if (data.includes(INJECT_FIX_STRING)) {
  console.log("Skipping fix injection, already exists.")
} else {
  data = data.toString().split("\n");
  data.splice(LINE_NUMBER, 0, INJECT_FIX_STRING);
  let text = data.join("\n");

  fs.writeFile(FILE_LOCATION, text, (err) => {
    if (err) {
      return console.log(err);
    } else {
      return console.log('Injected fix successfully')
    }
  });
}

// package.json

  "scripts": {
    "deploy": "serverless deploy",
    "start": "serverless offline start",
    "prestart": "node fix-sls-offline.js"
  }

adding Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir; fixed the issue

[rgabeh83]

I am having trouble with this and hoping someone could help me out. I have downgraded to node 12 but i am still have the same proplem. I tried to locate the "hapi/lib" file but there is no "lib" file. Any ideas?

[AlexanderAlvarez9]

adding Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir; fixed the issue

where you add this?

Should I add this as a new line 6 (did not work for me) or on line 5 next to the const Os = require('os'); ? line 5: const Os = require('os'); Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir; or line 5: const Os = require('os'); line 6 : Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir; which way you did it?

[andrewsauter-nbcuni]

@Aiperikurenkeeva both ways should work. Probably a bit cleaner to add Os.tmpDir = Os.tmpdir; to line 6.

Worked like a charm. Thank you very much :)
