"Sort lines" fails with error

[randoogle]

I don't know how much the scripts are part of this project, but when I try to use "Sort lines" I get this error:

ERROR: EXCEPTION: RangeError: Internal error. Icu error. (14:26 - 14:27)

My journal logs say the following:

fyi.zoey.Boop-GTK.desktop[53859]: [2021-08-18T19:23:15Z INFO boop_gtk::ui::app] executing Sort lines
fyi.zoey.Boop-GTK.desktop[53859]: [2021-08-18T19:23:15Z INFO boop_gtk::script] request received, full_text: 10 bytes, selection: 10 bytes

Icu error.", resource_name: Some("undefined"), source_line: Some(" .sort((a, b) => a.localeCompare(b))"), line_number: Some(14), columns: Some((26, 27)) })

I'm using the flatkpak on Fedora Silverblue 34

Thanks for the report! I can replicate this, I will take a closer look when I have more time :)

Oh, I should also have mentioned that "Natural Sort lines" also returns this error.

I can confirm, came here after seeing this error. Also starred the project because it's amazingly good. Thanks @zoeyfyi :D

Have the same issue #397?
Any workaround for now? Currently, I just use my JavaScript directly from terminal with node.

I'm thinking that the internal node.js that Boop-GTK relies on doesn't include full-icu
See nodejs/node#12529

Since I'm in the US and mostly deal with English text, my current workaround is to copy the original Sort.js into my scripts folder and change the line that is using localCompare to this instead:
.sort((a, b) => a > b)
Well, I guess the other workaround is to use another app that can sort lines. I personally enjoy the way this app works, and I hope the original developer(s) hasn't given up on it 🤞. I definitely enjoy the interoperability of being able to share a boop script with a co-worker who is on a Mac or Windows, and generally have it work the same in their version of Boop.
