In some cases, meteor build doesn't include `.bin` symlinks #8136

glasser · Dec 6, 2016

I've seen that in some cases, meteor build doesn't include .bin symlinks from npm modules in the app directory. This can break Galaxy when it rebuilds the app, if a package that needs to be rebuilt (eg bcrypt@1.0.0) depends on a program (eg node-pre-gyp) being on the PATH.

I've actually gone and done this experiment: in an empty directory, run meteor --release 1.4.2.3 create source && cd source && meteor npm install bcrypt && meteor build --directory ../built, then tried it again including --save in the bcrypt. I saved a full diff -ruN of the directories (both source and built). (Note that in order to keep references to absolute paths in generated files constant, each "source" directory was under /tmp/experiment when I ran meteor build; I then moved them elsewhere for the diff.)

The output of the diff: https://gist.github.com/glasser/98826a5fbf5d63f0f265acf167009bd6

You can see that when I pass --save, the symlinks are missing from built/bundle/programs/server/npm/node_modules/.bin.

The only other differences are the missing bcrypt line in package.json (this is basically the definition of not passing --save), a missing _requiredBy line in bcrypt's package.json (similar), and a note in node_modules/bcrypt/build/config.gypi (in both source and built) noting that it was saved.

I'm not sure why this causes the meteor build process to drop the .bin symlinks, but it does, and this breaks the ability to run npm rebuild in the produced tarball (as Galaxy does).

Note: anyone encountering this due to upgrading bcrypt specifically can work around this with meteor npm install --save bcrypt@0.8.7 — there's no new functionality in 1.0.0, just a build system change that conflicts here. (Well, there's a new Promise-based API that accounts-password does not use.)

Adding this to the 1.4.3 milestone, but I will port the fix to previous Meteor versions as necessary.

@glasser when you get a chance, please test this with

meteor create --release 1.4.3-beta.1 bin-links-test
cd bin-links-test
meteor npm install --save bcrypt
meteor npm install --save-dev mocha
ls -al node_modules/.bin
meteor build ../bin-links-build
cd ../bin-links-build
tar xf bin-links-test.tgz
cd bundle/programs/server
ls -al npm/node_modules/.bin
meteor npm install

The final ls -al should show a symlink for node-pre-gyp but not for mocha.

Hey Ben,

Thanks for checking this out! Quick Q: is the server-side warning about "Meteor is using a JavaScript implementation of bcrypt, use npm, etc" normal? In other words, will everyone see that out of the box until they run meteor npm i --save bcrypt?

@ffxsam Only if you're depending on the Meteor bcrypt package, which probably means you're using accounts-password.

Yep, I am indeed. I figured that was the case.

ffxsam · Dec 6, 2016

Yep, I am indeed. I figured that was the case.

@benjamn I verified that your steps show the symlinks, and also that the app can be successfully deployed to Galaxy without a rebuild failure.

(Note: I tend to use meteor build --directory when doing things like this!)

@vsivsi I had originally missed this issue, but I agree that this is likely the issue you are encountering that you documented in #7568 (comment).

Do you mind testing by trying 1.4.3-beta.1? It would be nice to confirm since you received a few up-votes on that comment:

meteor update --release 1.4.3-beta.1

@abernix I have confirmed that 1.4.3-beta.1 solves the issue I reported when deploying apps to Galaxy that require node-pre-gyp to build. Thanks for the helpful follow-up on this!

Ok, I followed the earlier suggestion and installing the older bcrypt package solved the problem for me:

meteor npm install --save bcrypt@0.8.7

But the beta1 doesn't solve it, so more research needs to be done.

@a4xrbj1 Is this happening on a Galaxy deployment? I'd need you to break your setup again to research it further. While it's still broken, what is the output from the following:

cd your_app_directory/
ls -la node_modules/.bin

I got the same problem with a newer bcrypt package and the current meteor release Meteor 1.4.2.3 on galaxy (local builds fine). ls -la node_modules/.bin showed the node-pre-gyp on my local machine.

using an older version worked for me: meteor npm install --save bcrypt@0.8.7

To reproduce this: Make a new meteor app, use accounts-password with bcrypt and save the binary npm package. Ensure it has a version > 0.8.7. Then deploy to galaxy and see it crash.

In case it helps anyone else reading this, we had storybook installed which in turn depended on bcrypt 1.0.0 way down the tree. Broke galaxy deployments. :-(

@chmac Isn't your storybook package in the devDependencies section of your package.json file?

@ffxsam I guess it probably should have been 😜

I used meteor npm install --save bcrypt@0.8.7 to solve this problem, which worked initially but has now stopped working for no apparent reason. Deployment using mupx used to be straightforward, not it's fraught with uncertainty.

Unfortunately the fix for this (released in 1.4.2.5) turned out to have some issues. 1.4.2.6 fixes them!

Thanks for the reply. I have avoided going beyond 1.4.0.1 as I encountered open file issues and wasn't able to increase ulimit -n above 4096. Will this work in 1.4.2.6?

@mbateman If you can't increase your ulimit, you might want to set the METEOR_WATCH_FORCE_POLLING environment variable:

export METEOR_WATCH_FORCE_POLLING=1

This increases CPU usage (because of the polling) but greatly decreases the open file count.

Hi @glasser and @benjamn ,

Looks like initial issue was fixed, when NPM dependencies of dependent packages is not loaded.
But I faced an issue when nested dependencies of dependent package is missed, but with weird behavior - modules is not found on first run and on rebuild.

Please see issue here.
What is happening:

Meteor-Files package has fs-extra as dependency
fs-extra has graceful-fs dependency which is missed on first run and on rebuild

What version of Meteor (guessing 1.4.2.6, in which case 1.4.2.7 should fix)?
What does meteor npm version say?
Try removing the .npm directory from your package to force it to be recreated?

@benjamn thank you for quick response.

Yes meteor version was 1.4.2.6

$ meteor npm version
{ 'Meteor-Files': '1.7.9',
  npm: '4.1.2',
  ares: '1.10.1-DEV',
  http_parser: '2.7.0',
  icu: '56.1',

  openssl: '1.0.2k',
  uv: '1.9.1',
  v8: '4.5.103.43',
  zlib: '1.2.8' }

After update to 1.4.2.7 (which is not solved an issue):

$ meteor npm version
{ 'Meteor-Files': '1.7.9',

  zlib: '1.2.8' }

After removing .npm, run into issue and can't start application, which has ostrio:files:

@benjamn removing everything in .npm except .npm/package/npm-shrinkwrap.json and running meteor update is solved an issue.
