Node.js hook errors with direnv

[evanleck]

What happened?

I installed nodejs@20 via devbox and added direnv with devbox generate direnv and now when I cd into that directory I get this error:

direnv: loading PATH/.envrc
direnv: using devbox
PATH/.devbox/gen/scripts/.raw-hooks.sh:1: DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED: unbound variable
direnv: error exit status 1

Steps to reproduce

mkdir devbox-node-repro
cd devbox-node-repro/
devbox init
devbox add nodejs@20
# Info: Adding package "nodejs@20" to devbox.json
# 
# nodejs NOTES:
# Devbox automatically configures Corepack for Nodejs when DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED=1. You can install Yarn or Pnpm by adding them to your `package.json` file using # `packageManager`
# Corepack binaries will be installed in your local `.devbox` directory
# 
# This plugin creates the following helper files:
# 
# To show this information, run `devbox info nodejs`
# 
# 
devbox generate direnv
# ✓ Computed the Devbox environment.
# Success: generated .envrc file
# Success: ran `direnv allow`
# direnv: loading ~/Documents/devbox-node-repro/.envrc
# direnv: using devbox
# devbox-node-repro/.devbox/gen/scripts/.raw-hooks.sh:1: DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED: unbound variable
# direnv: error exit status 1

Probably worth noting that I’m using fish shell.

[savil]

@evanleck which version of fish shell are you using?

[evanleck]

@savil fish 3.7.1 and direnv 2.34.0

Hey @evanleck, I've been trying to reproduce this but I can't get the error to replicate with Fish + Direnv. Can you try the following:

1. Update to the latest version of Devbox using devbox version update
2. Delete the contents of your .devbox directory, then regenerate them using devbox shell.

If those don't fix your issue, can you share the contents of the file at devbox-node-repro/.devbox/gen/scripts/.raw-hooks.sh

[evanleck]

@Lagoja thanks for looking into the issue.

1. Done, I'm on 0.10.4 now.
2. Done.

Unfortunately, that didn't seem to fix the issue. The contents of .raw-hooks.sh is:

test -z $DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED || corepack enable --install-directory "/Users/evan/Code/devbox-node-repro/.devbox/virtenv/nodejs/corepack-bin/"
test -z $DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED || export PATH="/Users/evan/Code/devbox-node-repro/.devbox/virtenv/nodejs/corepack-bin/:$PATH"

I don't see DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED anywhere in the output of env if that's of any help.

FWIW changing the contents of .raw-hooks to use test -v seems to fix the issue, though I'm not 100% sure it's functionally equivalent. Worth noting, test -v was introduced in bash 4.2, so this won't work on versions prior to that.

test -v DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED || corepack enable --install-directory "/Users/evan/Code/devbox-node-repro/.devbox/virtenv/nodejs/corepack-bin/"
test -v DEVBOX_COREPACK_ENABLED || export PATH="/Users/evan/Code/devbox-node-repro/.devbox/virtenv/nodejs/corepack-bin/:$PATH"
