proxychains4 nvm ls-remote

[proxychains] config file found: /etc/proxychains.conf
[proxychains] preloading /usr/local/lib/libproxychains4.dylib
proxychains can't load process....: No such file or directory

could anyone help?

try to use the full path to nvm binary

example proxychains4 /bin/nvm ls-remote

since you're using an apple its likely in another location though maybe which nvm tells you the full path

If you have an https proxy, e.g., use polipo's port 8123 to proxy socks5's port 1080

You can do it like below

https_proxy=https://127.0.0.1:8123 nvm ls-remote

Hit the same issue. I created a bash script then run it with proxychains to solve the problem. nvm-script.sh:

export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
nvm ls-remote

Run it:

proxychains4 bash nvm-script.sh

Edit: Rename the script to avoid misunderstand.

your nvm.sh calls itself ? or what's inside "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ?

@rofl0r No it's not, just a coincidence their names are same. $NVM_DIR/nvm.sh is provided by nvm. See it here: https://github.com/creationix/nvm/blob/master/nvm.sh

ok, thanks for clarification
