Command failed: remix routes --json | tee in Windows Powershell

[xHomu]

Describe the bug

Followed the instructions up to this line yarn routes-gen -d @routes-gen/remix and received the following error:

I believe this occurs because on Windows it defaults to use command prompt instead of Powershell, where the command would have worked.

@homumado I do not have a Windows myself. Do you have any ideas on how we could approach this?

[sandulat]

I've added tee to get the full output of remix routes --json. The output can be very long when you have many routes, and without tee, it gets truncated. Not sure if there's a cross-platform alternative to tee.

@homumado I think a solution might be ditching exec in favour of using Remix internal utils for reading the routes.

Pros:

• Cross-platform.
• Insane speed bump. Locally, it went down from 5.03s to 0.30s for me.

Cons:

• We're using internals, which may break on any Remix release.

I'm still researching for the best approach.

@homumado This was fixed in @routes-gen/remix 0.3.4. You can upgrade with yarn add @routes-gen/remix@latest. Feel free to re-open this issue or another one, if you still encounter any issues after upgrading.

Yey it works! Thanks for kicking ass, @sandulat !

[sandulat]

Awesome! Glad it works!

@xHomu This was actually affecting another package as well: https://github.com/sandulat/remix-docs-gen

It's now fixed there as well. Thanks once again for pointing this one out!
