Don't write to install directory

[andischan]

If you have installed wikidata-cli with your distros package manager (e.g. pacman) and not with npm, you have to run it with root rights. Otherwise you'll get:
EACCES: permission denied, open '/usr/lib/node_modules/wikidata-cli/props/de.json'

Thanks for reporting. Isn't it a duplicate of #9?

[maxlath]

I guess a temporary fix could be to run sudo chmod -R 666 /usr/lib/node_modules/wikidata-cli/props, but it doesn't solve the general problem. Where should a module write files?

[andischan]

Yes, it's the same bug like #9 .

Can node apps write to ~/.config or to ~/.wikidata-cli?

[maxlath]

It could, but I would like to know first if there is a standard and cross platform way to do that for node modules. Writing directly in the home folder doesn't feel super clean, maybe a subfolder like .config or .local indeed

should be fixed in 4.1.2
