Does this issue happen in VS Code or GitHub Codespaces?

[X] I cannot reproduce this in VS Code.
[X] I cannot reproduce this in GitHub Codespaces.

Are you accessing code-server over HTTPS?

[X] I am using HTTPS.

Notes

There are other errors when not installing globally (such as a 404 error).

~~Logs of code-server installation without --global~~ ~~https://hastebin.com/mojarihica.sql~~

completely unrelated

Sep 01 '22 23:09 U5B

Installing with yarn with code-server v4.6.1 gives the same error as the npm install. However, installing with yarn for code-server v4.6.0 has no error.

(side note, npm for v4.6.0 and below don't work on my system due to node-gyp issues)

Same error after installing code-server on my raspberry pi using npm

Sep 02 '22 11:09 ravi0the0sun

So it's not installing some dependencies 🤔 @edvincent any insight here since you're the npm expert?

I wonder if it's because of node-gyp issues or some native dependencies or something.

@edvincent any insight here since you're the npm expert?

🤓😬😂

Are all of the installs using ARM & Windows? I don't have my RPi handy until this evening so I can't test myself...

But I saw similar errors in the past when some of the nested install commands would fail - and unfortunately the logging sometimes get swallowed.

Anyone can try to run npm install from inside the lib/vscode and lib/vscode/extensions folder where code-server got installed?

Sep 02 '22 17:09 edvincent

Ok able to reproduce on Ubuntu 22.04 on an ARM instance. Seems a problem with the underlying dependencies of lib/vscode, specifically xterm... Which I would have expected the shrinkwrap file to prevent...

A short term hack/workaround: after the global install, go to the node_modules/code-server/lib/vscode directory directly and issue an npm install --legacy-peer-deps.

Sep 02 '22 17:09 edvincent

I suspect it's an issue with how the combo npm + semver computes peerDependencies...

[email protected] declares "xterm": "^4.0.0" as a peer dependency - see package.json
Our lockfile is bringing [email protected] - see npm-shrinkwrap.json

Likely the semver carret plays differently with beta versions - i.e. doesn't really consider 4.20.0-betaXX as a valid version above 4.19.0?

Sep 02 '22 17:09 edvincent

> semver.satisfies('4.20.0', '^4.19.0')
true
> semver.satisfies('4.20.0-beta.20', '^4.19.0')
false
> semver.satisfies('4.20.0-beta.20', '^4.19.0', {includePrerelease: true})
true

And the explanation is the same that from https://github.com/coder/code-server/pull/4918 and comes in https://github.com/npm/node-semver#prerelease-tags: pre-release tags are in a different "namespace".

Not sure why yarn (when we install everything during development) is not complaining about this...

Sep 02 '22 18:09 edvincent

I guess https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/pull/3361 would explain that...

Sep 02 '22 18:09 edvincent

Relevant discussion for npm: https://github.com/npm/rfcs/pull/397, but doesn't seem to go anywhere...

Brainstorming on next steps/fixes - happy to hear thoughts/other ideas:

After installing vscode, before doing the release, force an install of [email protected] which will override the version brought by the yarn.lock from vscode (which is what eventually ends up in the release package we vend).
Edit the install script to issue a --legacy-peer-deps, which is going to revert to an older behavior which won't validate these peer-deps.
Try to force upstream (vscode) to go back to [email protected] - though likely wouldn't work, as the next time they upgrade deps it'll bump to the next beta version....

And either way, need to sanity check why logging for the nested commands is not being bubbled up to the user...

Sep 02 '22 20:09 edvincent

Edit the install script to issue a --legacy-peer-deps, which is going to revert to an older behavior which won't validate these peer-deps.

I think we're going to try this for now to unblock installing via npm. see: https://github.com/coder/code-server/pull/5533

Once CI passes, we'll publish 4.6.1-1 on npm manually to unblock people and allow us to publish to homebrew: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/109430

Not sure which of those solutions are best. cc @code-asher

side note: @edvincent your investigation/notes are super thorough and you found all this super fast!!! Thank you!

I tried installing this three packages with npm globally and it seems the problem is solved sudo npm install -g @microsoft/1ds-core-js minimist yauzl i hope this will solve the problem

I tried installing this three packages with npm globally and it seems the problem is solved sudo npm install -g @microsoft/1ds-core-js minimist yauzl i hope this will solve the problem

Yes, thanks! On FreeBSD also had to add vscode-proxy-agent @vscode/ripgrep vscode-regexpp xterm-headless spdlog @parcel/watcher the same way because of some warnings, and still have [IPC Library: Pty Host] Error: Platform not supported error, so no terminal available, but the editor works fine, that's the point.

I got an error installing spdlog:

Exactly the same problem was found on Windows Server 2022. [email protected] After deployment was complete, I found 4.10.1, which had just been updated, but when I reviewing CHANGELOG I did not find anything related to it. Env. TencentCloud CVM Windows Server 2022 Datacenter X64 Simplified Chinese

I tried to run:

npm install --global @microsoft/1ds-core-js minimist yauzl

and restart device, but it doesn't working.

@Initial-heart-1 you missed quite a few packages try:

npm i -g @microsoft/1ds-core-js minimist yauzl yazl spdlog

I think this is coming from y'alls lack of understanding of the new yarn and some things. right now if you're on a corepack enabled node version, anything past 16.17.0, and use a non yarn 1.22.19 install it all blows up. if this is your current hell hole here's how you can make this package run as if yarn 1 is the only yarn that exists:

export const installCodeServer = () => {
  spawnSync('corepack', ['[email protected]', 'global', 'add', '[email protected]'])
  // without these globals it doesn't work
  spawnSync('corepack', ['[email protected]', 'global', 'add', '@microsoft/1ds-core-js', 'minimist', 'yauzl', 'yazl', 'spdlog'])
  process.stdout.write('code-server version 4.11.0 installed\n')
}

After installing code-server(v4.11.0) on my Raspberry Pi 3(OS: Raspbian GNU/Linux 11) with npm(node v16.16.0): npm i -g code-server --unsafe-perm, i installed the missing libraries with the following commands:

npm i -g @microsoft/1ds-core-js minimist yauzl yazl spdlog xterm-headless
sudo apt install libsecret-1-dev

then changed into the node_modules/code-server/lib/vscode directory to run the command:

npm i --legacy-peer-deps

Eventually code-server works as expected.

v4.12.0 still have this problem， it need to install vscode's node_modules manually:

cd path_to_global_node_modules/codeserver/lib/vscode && npm i . --production --force

after installed, code-server can start up successfully.

seams the npm post install script should add this step

Oh, not so good...I seem to have been successful in the solution to this problem, because it has indeed worked well on my server for a while, but I seem to forget what I did... Anyway, I'm running [email protected] on my server (Windows 10 Pro).

info? it still persist on latest version

Issue persists September 10, 2023. Any updates?

Please use docker and code-server-python. It is tested on RPI4 Pi OS 64-bit. For 32-bit, you have to build the image manually. You can modify the base image to work with other frameworks.

Does this still persist in the latest version? I am not sure there are any errors on our end, we already install modules as part of the postinstall: https://github.com/coder/code-server/blob/6a140706642578ea8bd290254457f25d77499956/ci/build/npm-postinstall.sh#L145-L147
