Deployment without a manually uploaded node module folder didn't work

As the title suggests, I had a really simple script that I needed to deploy and without my node modules folder manually uploaded (note, there was a package.json and all that), I couldn't properly deploy the script and was getting undefined errors from my dependancies.

Farazpatankar suggested that the start script might be the issue and to check the package.json file. Wyzlle suggested setting the NIXPACKS_PKGS variable to util-linux-minimal in variables, and JustJake suggested adding the variable.

⚠️ experimental feature

SharpOP•2y ago

There we go, ofc just lmk if I'm missing anything take your time, no rush at all, apologies for the wait haha

Brody•2y ago

obligatory question, have you modified anything in your local node_modules folder? also, callback hell async but no await

SharpOP•2y ago

no sir, never

Brody•2y ago

can i see a screenshot of the variables tab in the service

SharpOP•2y ago

just node v18

SharpOP•2y ago

Brody•2y ago

okay i was hoping so

SharpOP•2y ago

yep, always <a:aPES_Shake:513344618444881941>

Brody•2y ago

little side track though, im seeing a few 'XXX' meaning you stored secrets as plain text in your code?

SharpOP•2y ago

yeah, this is a one-off discord bot for a super small function someone could get hold of that secret and it really wouldnt matter haha

Brody•2y ago

still though, please use service variables going forward, its just good practice

SharpOP•2y ago

service variables?

Brody•2y ago

Brody•2y ago

like that but for your discord token

SharpOP•2y ago

shit, railway keeps getting better, ill be sure to peep docs for how that works and get on it immediately, thanks dude!

Brody•2y ago

add a variable in there then access it with process.env.<variable name>

SharpOP•2y ago

you're the best

Brody•2y ago

okay but thats not your issue

SharpOP•2y ago

i have many glad we could fix one

Brody•2y ago

now back on track, locally, delete the node_modules folder then run npm i and tell me if your code still works

SharpOP•2y ago

worked

SharpOP•2y ago

side note

SharpOP•2y ago

ill work on callback hell later PepeNervSmile

Brody•2y ago

its just const balance = await provider.getBalance('xxx');

SharpOP•2y ago

const getBalance = async () => {
    const initBalance = await provider.getBalance('XXX')
            let ethBalance = ethers.formatEther(initBalance);

const getBalance = async () => {
    const initBalance = await provider.getBalance('XXX')
            let ethBalance = ethers.formatEther(initBalance);

is that less hellish lol sorry, i swear i didnt open this for JS lessons KEKW

Brody•2y ago

ethBalance can be a const

SharpOP•2y ago

done ty sensei

Brody•2y ago

is client.channels.cache.get a promise?

SharpOP•2y ago

dont believe so would be if it was without cache actually i may be confusing versions of discord.js forget that

Brody•2y ago

okay so at this point im just googleing for the error, so will you take over that for now

SharpOP•2y ago

are you referring to:

 TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'send')
at /app/index.js:50:13

What.... the sweet hell, I just deleted node modules again and it worked <:PES_Cry:493359762432327691>

Brody•2y ago

Are you deploying from git?

SharpOP•2y ago

wdym? to railway?

Brody•2y ago

from git to railway?

SharpOP•2y ago

I sync changes to my repo and then railway redeploys is my flow

Brody•2y ago

So currently you have a .gitignore with node_modules/ and theres now no node_modules folder on git?

SharpOP•2y ago

correct

SharpOP•2y ago

SharpOP•2y ago

Brody•2y ago

and it works, no more undefined?

SharpOP•2y ago

nope. lol

Brody•2y ago

okay well i dont know what was fixed but yay

SharpOP•2y ago

it was your energy the vibes Thank you so much for taking the time, I'm sorry this didn't sort itself out cleanly, but I did seriously learn some really solid lessons from you in the process

Brody•2y ago

haha thank you, glad it worked out
