Hi @siduck76! It looks like the Discord IPC socket wasn't able to be found on your system. What OS are you using?

[siduck]

I use void linux , do I need to install this discord IPC socket?

[andweeb]

Hmm okay I see, nah it's not something you need to install!

It looks like I need to support the case where named pipes aren't in tmp runtime directories. It's likely that on your system the IPC socket is in this location: /run/user/{userid}/discord-ipc-0.

Can you confirm that that's the case? You can find your userid with id -u $USER (or echo $UID).

@siduck76 My /run/user is empty ,do I need to install this? https://github.com/iamtraction/discoIPC

Nah there shouldn't be anything to install other than your Discord application and ensure that Discord is running, as the client will automatically initialize and open the socket on your system somewhere. We just gotta find where that is lol

I did some light research on Discord on Void Linux, and I'm starting to suspect it may be due to how the application is packaged for your system. Are you using the flatpak version by any chance? It seems there's some limitations and/or extra work into enabling Rich Presence (see here).

Otherwise, try searching for the discord IPC socket location via netstat -u | grep discord (assuming netstat is available), and let me know if you can find it!

[siduck]

discord is available on void but its a restricted package so I have to use xbps-src to build it , So I just used xdeb to install discord (deb file) , xdeb is a tool that converts xdeb to xbps packages https://github.com/toluschr/xdeb.

Hmm you ran that command while Discord was running right?

If Discord is running and for some reason it doesn't open a socket for the plugin to connect to, I'm not exactly sure if there's a fix I can apply on my end. :/

Coincidentally I've been meaning to try out Void (and Arch) so when I have the time I'll try setting that up and install Discord myself to be able to replicate your issue locally, though it may be a while.

Until then it'd be helpful if you could let me know if you come across more information, such as the discord-ipc-0 socket location on your system or whether Discord on Void Linux actually does support Rich Presence.

[siduck]

No worries I'll wait! and check about the discord-ipc-0 .

I keep getting this error , I use neovim 0.5

I've encountered the same issue using Ubuntu 20 on WSL2.

[andweeb]

Thanks for reporting @OliverKovacs! I've not yet added support for WSL on Windows, I'll add that note to the README.

Regarding the error, that occurs when the Discord IPC socket is unable to be found (due to lack of support for Void Linux and WSL at the moment). I'll make a fix to properly handle the error and have a more helpful/informative log here.

I wonder if I'm a similar situation. I'm also on Void Linux, and the following appears when the plugin executes:

[presence.nvim] Failed to determine Discord IPC socket path    

However, when I look into the /tmp folder, I do see the file discord-ipc-0:

What should I do?

[JuniorSuperTux]

I think I found the problem:

All of these are not set in Void Linux by default

[JuniorSuperTux]

@siduck Try adding the following to your .xinitrc:

export TMPDIR=/tmp

It worked for me
