Cannot serve application with angular.dart 0.13 #1270

cinan · 2014-07-28T13:23:01Z

Hello,
today I've upgraded to angular.dart 0.13. I cannot serve my application because of "Illegal argument(s): sdkDirectory must be provided." error which occures after running "pub serve". My pubspec.yaml:

name: test_app
version: 0.0.1
dependencies:
  angular: ">=0.13.0 <0.14.0"
  browser: any
  js: any
  shadow_dom: any
  json_object: any
  crypto: any
  dart_config: any
dev_dependencies:
  unittest: ">=0.11.0 <0.12.0"
  mock: ">=0.11.0 <0.12.0"
transformers:
- angular:
    html_files:
    - web/index.html
    - web/views/login.html
    - web/views/in.html
    - web/views/profile.html
    - web/views/feedbacks.html

I can't reproduce the error here. What version of the dart-sdk are you using?

Also, shadow_dom has been replaced by web_components. Depending on shadow_dom may prevent certain dependencies from updating. See http://pub.dartlang.org/packages/shadow_dom

cinan · 2014-07-29T09:46:12Z

I'm using dart-sdk 1.5.3.

I replaced shadow_dom with web_components, did pub upgrade, but the problem persists.

Here's complete output of pub serve:

taisph · 2014-07-29T12:37:40Z

Thanks. Deps look good too.

Could you pastebin your pubspec.yaml? I'm wondering why the "in" in the "- web/views/in.html" line is bold?

Other than that I'm out of suggestions. I made an empty directory with a web subdir, pasted your pubspec.yaml as above and ran pub upgrade and pub serve web. No errors.

cinan · 2014-07-29T12:53:31Z

I looked at transformer.dart source code. So I added to transformers section this line: dart_sdk: /opt/google/dartsdk/ and now it works (as workaround). I'm wondering where is declared dartSdkDirectory variable (used here: https://github.com/angular/angular.dart/blob/master/lib/transformer.dart, line 50).

taisph · 2014-07-29T13:40:40Z

It is from code_transformers package imported by di which in turn is imported by the file you mentioned.

rkirov · 2014-07-29T19:06:52Z

Here is the code_transformers file in question:
https://github.com/dart-lang/bleeding_edge/blob/master/dart/pkg/code_transformers/lib/src/dart_sdk.dart#L22

There are certain assumptions about SdkDirectory with relation to the dart executable accessed through Platform.executable.

You can fix it by adding appropriate symlinks or even better pass dart_sdk argument to the angular transformer as follows:

transformers:
- angular:
    dart_sdk: "/path/to/sdk"

jonaskello · 2014-11-28T15:42:37Z

I'm using both Windows and Ubuntu (dart docker image) so it will not work with a siningle hardcoded path in pubspec.yaml and I don't want to maintain two versions of pubspec.yaml.

@rkirov "You can fix it by adding appropriate symlinks"
Exactly what symlinks do I need to setup for this to work?

zoechi · 2014-11-28T17:44:32Z

I run this code in the Docker file
RUN sed -i "s{sdkDirectory:.*{sdkDirectory: \"$DART_SDK\"{" pubspec.yaml
which replaces the text after sdkDirectory: with the content of the $DART_SDK variable.

I guess the comment with symlinks means that you can create symlinks so that the Dart SDK can be reached on all systems by the same path.

jonaskello · 2014-11-29T22:28:19Z

@zoechi Thanks! Transforming the path in pubspec.yaml during build would work for me too if I didn't have to support development on OSX too (forgot to mention that in the original post). If I put a path in pubspec.yaml then development on both OSX and Windows will not work. But I have it working now. I did not add anything to pubspec.yaml, instead I added this line to the Dockerfile:

RUN ln -s /usr/lib/dart /usr/lib/dart/bin/dart-sdk

zoechi · 2014-11-30T09:14:30Z

Nice, thanks for the info!

adarshaj · 2014-11-30T17:57:34Z

@jonaskello 👍

adarshaj · 2014-12-08T01:25:42Z

For future reference, with homebrew on mac with dart 1.8.0, I had to do following:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/dart/1.8.0/libexec /usr/local/Cellar/dart/1.8.0/libexec/bin/dart-sdk

#notetoself

markuswustenberg · 2014-12-08T12:08:44Z

We've put these lines in our pubspec.yaml:

transformers:
- angular:
    dart_sdk: /opt/google/dartsdk

and then symlinked with ln -s /usr/local/opt/dart/libexec /opt/google/dartsdk (with Dart installed on a Mac with Homebrew). @adarshaj this won't break when Dart is upgraded from v1.8.0.

It would, however, be nice to override the configuration with e.g. an environment variable. Could angular perhaps respect $DART_SDK or similar?

jonaskello · 2014-12-08T12:24:00Z

@markuswustenberg I think it is enough to either do the symlink or put the path in pubspec.yaml. You should not have to do both. Also I don't think it is an angular specific issue. If you look up this thread were @rkirov linked the code that probes for the sdk path, it seems to not be a part of angular (it was by reading this code I figured out where to put the symlink). You might want to star these issues which I think are closer to the root cause:

https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=21225
https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=16994
https://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=20376

markuswustenberg · 2014-12-08T12:42:53Z

@jonaskello Yeah, sorry, I forgot to add that we are running in multiple environments and we've settled for /opt/google/dartsdk for the SDK path. That's the reason for the extra symlink.

I didn't realize it's not an Angular-specific issue, thanks for the pointers.

zoechi · 2014-12-11T05:28:45Z

Should be fixed in code_transformers 0.2.3+2 (see http://dartbug.com/21225)
