I've just added a link to the AUR package in the FAQ with c062d1f2405ee367d0439c791db6cfc86a7e6c91.

Let me know if you have any comment and thanks a lot for leading this!

[pat-s]

Thanks, I am about to test v2.8.3

After solving another nasty pupetteer one (https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer/issues/2519) I am stuck at what seems to be a decktape one (thats at least how it looks like in the first place)

decktape --no-sandbox  /home/pjs/Downloads/Remark.html test.pdf
Loading page file:///home/pjs/Downloads/Remark.html ...

Unable to load resource from URL: file:///home/pjs/Downloads/downloads/remark-latest.min.js

Unable to load resource from URL: file:///home/pjs/Downloads/remark.language.js

Why is there an additional "downloads" inserted in the path which breaks the resource loading? Trying with the remark example presentation.

@astefanutti any help would be appreciated, I am stuck here :open_mouth:

[astefanutti]

@pat-s sorry, I miss your comment. I haven't been able to reproduce locally. Could you double check that the links in the /home/pjs/Downloads/Remark.html file are actually correct and the presentation opens correctly. I cannot think of anything that could cause such a behaviour in Decktape :(

[pat-s]

@astefanutti Trying it again, I am now stuck at a way earlier stage: Due to the missing hummus binary for v10.2, hummus is build from source and throws an error..

https://gist.github.com/pat-s/a8d8e0095d386554a98009587e8a663a

Regarding your comment: I checked that everything was correct, I did not change anything in the default remark presentation. But for now the other error needs to be solved. Kinda tricky with all the nodejs updated on Arch.

[astefanutti]

Ah bummer 😞! I haven't tested Hummus binary compilation for Node 10.2. I'll give it a try ASAP and let you know.

[pat-s]

Interesting finds:

• v.2.8.0 installs hummus 1.0.87
• v.2.8.3 installs hummus 1.0.86

Could not relate the behavior to the commit history of package.json.

Also, running sudo npm -g install decktape works, doing it similar in the PKGBUILD ( npm install --user root -g --prefix "$pkgdir/usr" $_npmname@$pkgver) throws an error.

I changed the package-lock.json file for a npm-shrinkwrap.json file, as the later guarantees the same dependency versions are installed. That explains the versions you get for the Hummus dependency, and the decision to use a npm-shrinkwrap.json file.

Also, running sudo npm -g install decktape works, doing it similar in the PKGBUILD ( npm install --user root -g --prefix "$pkgdir/usr" $_npmname@$pkgver) throws an error.

What error does it throw?

What error does it throw?

The error in the linked gist two comments above.

[pat-s]

Got it building again (v2.8.4), but executing fails due to the sandbox error. Even when using --no-sandbox.

I tried this but without success.

decktape --no-sandbox ~/Downloads/Remark.html ~/Downloads/remark.pdf

[astefanutti]

Seems similar to GoogleChrome/puppeteer#2519 that you've already faced above.

[pat-s]

@astefanutti Next try ;)

Using decktape 2.8.5 I see:

decktape --no-sandbox Remark.html test.pdf

Loading page file:///home/pjs/git/pkgbuilds/nodejs-decktape/Remark.html ...

Unable to load resource from URL: file:///home/pjs/git/pkgbuilds/nodejs-decktape/downloads/remark-latest.min.js
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

Unable to load resource from URL: file:///home/pjs/git/pkgbuilds/nodejs-decktape/remark.language.js
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

Page error: ReferenceError: remark is not defined
    at file:///home/pjs/git/pkgbuilds/nodejs-decktape/Remark.html:464:18

Why is there a search going on in /home/pjs/git/pkgbuilds/nodejs-decktape/downloads/ (which does not even exist)? It seems decktape is trying to load the remark JS plugin but looks in the wrong place?

[astefanutti]

@pat-s looks like it's running!

It looks like the Remark.html file loads the Remark libs from the download directory. Could you double checked the script tags?

Alternatively, could you try testing directly the online presentation, e.g.:

$ decktape --no-sandbox http://remarkjs.com/ test.pdf

[pat-s]

Alternatively, could you try testing directly the online presentation,

That works!

But we need to resolve this local file issue.

Could you double checked the script tags?

What do you mean by this? I do not understand this :duck:

[astefanutti]

Could you double checked the script tags?

What do you mean by this? I do not understand this 🦆

I mean, inside the Remark.html file, what is the URL for the remark-latest.min.js resource? It seems Chrome is loading it from downloads/remark-latest.min.js so the only reason I see is that it's defined in the Remark.html file.

[pat-s]

Indeed, it is

<script src="downloads/remark-latest.min.js"></script>

Ok, so verifying that the online version works is enough then to verify a valid decktape build for me.

Then I can finally update the AUR package again. It has quite some warnings during packaging but as long as it works in the end ;)

[astefanutti]

Great! I agree packaging warning should not be a big deal.

[pat-s]

@astefanutti When building v2.8.9 I see the following:

[astefanutti]

@pat-s ah the NPM publish failed. I've just given another try so it should be fixed.

[pat-s]

Thanks, worked!
