Forward PATH to child processes

[Seldaek]

Without this I can't get it to run at all, as it doesn't find php or phpunit or any command I give it. Not sure if it's the correct fix..

[liuggio]

Sorry for the late reply, I was on holiday... I need to investigate, but what $_server['path'] is? Which OS are you using?

[Seldaek]

Windows and $_SERVER['PATH'] is my PATH environment variable.

[ioleo]

This should be fixed by #52

@Seldaek can you retest and confirm?

[Seldaek]

$ find tests/ -name "*Test.php" | ../fastest/fastest
- 87 shuffled tests into the queue.
- Will be consumed by 4 parallel Processes.

87/87 [============================] 100%  1 sec 4.0 MiB

     87 failures.
[1] tests/Composer/Test/Repository/CompositeRepositoryTest.php'bin' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

All tests fail with that same message. Sounds like it tries to execute "bin" as a command, not sure why and I don't really have the motivation to debug this right now.. Have you tried it on windows at all? :)

[ioleo]

@Seldaek without the -c option, the default command is bin/phpunit {}

for Windows you need to change that to bin\phpunit {}

so try with find tests/ -name "*Test.php" | ../fastest/fastest -c "bin\phpunit {}"

ill make a PR with a fix for that

[Seldaek]

[3] tests/Composer/Test/Downloader/PerforceDownloaderTest.php'phpunit' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

$ which phpunit
/c/Users/seld/AppData/Roaming/Composer/vendor/bin/phpunit

[Seldaek]

Seems like that is a similar issue to what I was having when I created this PR :)

[ioleo]

@Seldaek you must edit your variable_order in php.ini to add E flag

see readme

PS. I've discovered and added it to readme yesterday :P

[Seldaek]

Well.. sorry but I don't think I should have to tweak my variable_order to make this work. It's just not nice user experience :) $_SERVER['PATH'] or getenv('PATH') work fine without having the E in var order. Can't fastest just use that?

[ioleo]

@Seldaek fastest uses $_ENV variable to pass all enviroment variables (along with PATH) to the child process. By default php has variable_order set to EGPCS (so, haveing E flag is the default). However some Windows PHP stacks (like EasyPHP) have it set to GPCS by default.

Without E flag, the $_ENV variable is empty.

[Seldaek]

Actually no, EGPCS is the default if not specified, but php.ini-production and php.ini-development in php7 both ship without E.

; Default Value: "EGPCS"
; Development Value: "GPCS"
; Production Value: "GPCS";
; http://php.net/variables-order
variables_order = "GPCS"

proc_open's env argument should just be set to null to forward current env (docs say An array with the environment variables for the command that will be run, or NULL to use the same environment as the current PHP process).

[ioleo]

@Seldaek fastest needs to add some custom ENV variables per process (so it cannot set them in the ENV) and the part responsible for this is Process/EnvCommandCreator.php#L16

To also include current process ENV variables it uses $_ENV. So we can't set it to null.

[Seldaek]

Hmm ok.. you could probably just use putenv() to set your new env vars and then use null to forward it all though?

[liuggio]

Hi I see two problems here:

1. the "PATH" env that is accesible only via getenv('PATH')
2. decide which is (or how to get) the standard test command to execute on windows.

for the first maybe just adding the PATH with getenv here: https://github.com/liuggio/fastest/blob/master/src/Process/EnvCommandCreator.php#L17

for the second I'm not a Windows user but maybe if is well configured we could just leave phpunit /phpunit.de/#installation.phar.windows

/c @loostro

[ioleo]

@Seldaek sounds good, i'll test that

[ioleo]

Should be fixed by #58.

[ioleo]

Reopening, as #58 has been reverted due to some unexpected side effects.

[francoispluchino]

This PR can be closed, because already fixed.

[DonCallisto]

@francoispluchino have you tested it?

[francoispluchino]

Yes, and it's tested in the Liuggio\Fastest\Process\ProcessFactoryTest class.

[DonCallisto]

Thank you
