npm run plug exits with a crash

JayCBreak commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug The powercord script crashes when attempting to install dependencies on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS

To Reproduce On Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS:

update git via apt-get
install node.js via snap using sudo snap install node --classic --channel=14
install discord canary via the install link on https://powercord.dev/installation
clone powercord repository to your local machine and move into the powercord repository (using command on https://powercord.dev/installation)
run npm i
run npm run plug The script should run into an error after the text "Installing dependencies, please wait..." with the error message:

child_process.js:655
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Command failed: npm install --only=prod

Expected behavior The proper installation of powercord

Desktop

OS: Default, fully updated, installation of Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Powercord version: I have no previous install and am using the latest clone from the powercord repository to install

Additional context

I checked if Discord and/or Powercord are up to date
I made sure this is not related to an external plugin or a theme
I am working with a fresh install of both discord canary and the latest powercord.
I do have an installation of discord stable however it is a regular install with no modifications (eg. betterdiscord)
Running npm run unplug provides a similar output, getting to "Installing dependencies, please wait..." and exiting with error:
```
child_process.js:655
throw err;
^
```

Error: Command failed: npm install --only=prod at checkExecSyncError (child_process.js:616:11) at execSync (child_process.js:652:15) at installDeps (/home/sysbreak/git/powercord/injectors/env_check.js:17:3) at module.exports (/home/sysbreak/git/powercord/injectors/env_check.js:60:9) at Object.

 - The error occurs whether or not discord stable and/or discord canary is running (tested with it being open, closed but open in tray, and completely quit)

Add any other context about the problem here.

In case anyone else comes across this, I re-read the error and just needed to add --scripts-prepend-node-path to the end of the plug command. sudo npm run plug --scripts-prepend-node-path gave me a proper install.

I wouldn't advise installing nodejs via snap, or using snap at all. For debian distros you can find the install method on https://www.github.com/nodesource/distributions/tree/master/README.md
