Support npm:pm2

[bartlomieju]

    > @iugo how is it same error? What command are you trying to run?

run command deno run -A npm:pm2 --help.

same error, error info is x.y.z is not a function.

Min. example

import chalk from "npm:chalk@3"
console.log(chalk.bold.green("Hello"))

Errors:

error: Uncaught TypeError: chalk.bold.green is not a function
console.log(chalk.bold.green("Hello"))
                       ^

[khrj]

The same issue is also present when using createRequire

[khrj]

I've dissected through the code for chalk v3 and have managed to get pure JS (no deps) code that works in node, but fails in Deno. I'm not completely sure yet but it seems like Node is handling object prototypes differently from Deno, I'll try to get a cleaner example and then post it here

[khrj]

Note that the code works in node and not in Deno even when not using npm specifiers / createRequire, so this isn't an issue with the npm compatibility layer (or std/node)

Duplicate of #13321

If this is because of chalk@3 then it's because of missing "proto" that Deno doesn't support and will not in the future. So the best bet is to ask pm2 maintainers to update their dependencies.

[khrj]

Yes, it is because of that -- is there no chance of implementing __proto__ to internally call Object.setPrototypeOf? If not for Deno modules, at least for npm specifiers to not break existing modules.

I've run grep through the node_modules of the top 10 packages on npm and nearly all of them have .__proto__ somewhere.

FYI, @khrj is aiming to fix this in Unitech/pm2#5489

[khrj]

Note that even after proto is fixed, pm2 will still be broken by #16784

[lino-levan]

pm2 now works with unsafe proto!

[bartlomieju]

This still doesn't work for me. It appears that we're not correctly handling "ipc" option in child_process module in new ChildProcess():

CC @littledivy is it something you could look at? Since we already support IPC in subprocesses it feels like there's something misconfigured that makes it crash.

[littledivy]

@bartlomieju I'm not getting the IPC error. It fails on .unref

[bartlomieju]

@littledivy - correct. I added additional logs to surface that error (the catch handler for when the process is spawned).

[littledivy]

Ah, I see the problem now. Our implementation only supports non-stdio IPC.

We need to implement support for stdio as raw fds and "ipc" in Deno.Command.

const process = new Deno.Command(command, {
  stdout: "ipc",
  // or stdout: 3
}).spawn();

[bartlomieju]

Huh, i thought we already had it. Is it any different than the current IPC support we have?
