Issues getting started

[waalge]

Summary

I had a few problems getting started. Long time since i've used yarn or done any serious ts work.

Opening up the repo, I notice not all packages are listed in the README. Not sure why.
Using nix, there's a dev environment. I would assume this means I can skip the "setup" step in the README.

But I can't see local imports

$yarn test
➤ YN0000: [@cardano-sdk/cardano-services]: Process started
➤ YN0000: [@cardano-sdk/cardano-services]: Error: Jest: Got error running globalSetup - /home/waalge/clones/cardano/cardano-js-sdk/packages/cardano-services/test/jest-setup/jest-setup.ts, reason: [TSError: test/jest-setup/jest-setup.ts:1:28 - error TS2307: Cannot find module '@cardano-sdk/util-dev' or its corresponding type declarations.

Doing yarn install does not resolve this.

The readme says I can run

$nix run .#config-update
warning: Git tree '/home/waalge/clones/cardano/cardano-js-sdk' is dirty
error: flake 'git+file:///home/waalge/clones/cardano/cardano-js-sdk' does not provide attribute 'apps.x86_64-linux.config-update', 'packages.x86_64-linux.config-update', 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.config-update' or 'config-update'

I don't remember how nixstd works wrt this, if I ever did know.

[mkazlauskas]

I'm not aware of anyone using nix for cardano-js-sdk dev environment. We're using nix for deployments

[waalge]

The README currently suggests it's supported, and nix comes with a devshell.

Happy to help try fix that. Alternatively can it be removed?

In anycase is there an obvious reason why local dependencies aren't being found?

[gytis-ivaskevicius]

Just tested it from devshell. yarn install && yarn build && yarn test seems to do the job

[mkazlauskas]

Closing due to no activity, assuming the solution worked

[waalge]

The readme still says you can use nix

[michalrus]

@waalge if you’re not using direnv to enter the devshell, you can first run:

❯ nix develop .#x86_64-linux.local.envs.main

and then, inside that shell:

❯ yarn install && yarn build && yarn test

[waalge]

@michalrus direnv or otherwise, the README is still out-of-date 🤷
