2.12.0 failing with 'error PATH missing'

[warrenv]

I just did a brew update and received a new version of direnv that appears to be broken. When I cd into a directory with a .envrc file, I see the message: direnv: error PATH missing.

OS info:

Darwin beatnix-8.local 16.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 16.6.0: Fri Apr 14 16:21:16 PDT 2017; root:xnu-3789.60.24~6/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64

The .envrc file in the directory is:

source_up
export UVM_SERVICE="$(basename $(pwd))"

Here's the direnv output:

$ direnv

I'm getting this error with this .envrc

PATH_add bin
PATH_add node_modules/.bin

Pls fix

[warrenv]

I also have a .envrc in a parent dir with a PATH_add just like @joelmichael :

PATH_add $HOME/.uvm/bin

@nbraud I suspect that 060260b introduced that regression. Investigating..

Just released v2.12.1 which solves that issue

[warrenv]

thank you.

[nbraud]

@zimbatm Thanks; the rewritten logic is indeed much nicer, I just wasn't sure whether I should/could use arrays (for portability reasons). :)

[zimbatm]

@nbraud I'm not sure either, I tested it on macOS which is stuck at version 3.x and am assuming everybody else has switched to 4.x.

According to TLDP, version 3 introduced the generalised array syntax (as opposed to only on arguments) and was released in 2004 http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/bashver3.html
