resolveCLIBinary: abstract-cli could not be accessed at the expected path: []

[Rulevoid]

I'm using Azure Functions to run a nodejs function which consumes the abstract sdk. No issues running this locally, but consistently seeing issues with the resolveCLIBinary function throwing an error when trying to locate the cli. The path that the error spits out is correct and the cli binary is at that path. The deployed artifact has the node_modules directory at root as expected. This same issue was reported in Spectrum in May: https://spectrum.chat/abstract/developers/cant-access-abstract-cli-when-using-the-abstract-sdk-package~2ad41747-e801-4601-8bc2-852dbcb080c2

I have tried nodejs 10.x and 12.x both with the same issue.

Result: Failure Exception: Worker was unable to load function AbstractHook: 'Error: abstract-cli could not be accessed at the expected path: /home/site/wwwroot/node_modules/@elasticprojects/abstract-cli/bin/abstract-cli' Stack: Error: abstract-cli could not be accessed at the expected path: /home/site/wwwroot/node_modules/@elasticprojects/abstract-cli/bin/abstract-cli at resolveCLIBinary (/home/site/wwwroot/node_modules/@elasticprojects/abstract-cli/index.js:20:13) at Object.<anonymous> (/home/site/wwwroot/node_modules/@elasticprojects/abstract-cli/index.js:30:18) at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1138:30) at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1158:10) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:986:32) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:879:14) at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1026:19) at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:72:18) at Object.<anonymous> (/home/site/wwwroot/node_modules/abstract-sdk/dist/endpoints/Endpoint.js:96:15) at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1138:30)

Temporarily fixed by modifying the resolveCLIBinary function to return the binpath without the fs check. Something is wrong with the fs access check.

Example of changes that are working.

  const binDir = resolveBinDir();
  if (process.platform === "darwin" || process.platform === "linux" || process.platform === "win32") {
    const binPath = path.join(binDir, BINARY_NAME);
    return binPath;
    
    // try {
    //   fs.accessSync(binPath, fs.constants.R_OK | fs.constants.X_OK);
    //   return binPath;
    // } catch (error) {
    //   throw new Error(
    //     `${BINARY_NAME} could not be accessed at the expected path: ${binPath}`
    //   );
    // }
  }
  throw new Error(
    `${BINARY_NAME} not supported on platform: ${process.platform}`
  );
