Conflict with tree-view-autoresize package

[jerrykal]

Problem as the title, here's an example:

Before disable file-icons:

After disable file-icons:

[Alhadis]

I don't understand what the problem is.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis In the gif-1 you can see I close tree-view before I close atom, but after I open atom, the tree-view show up again.

[jerrykal]

It should be closed when I restart atom.

[Alhadis]

Ah, I see.

Run this in your dev console:

atom.config.set("file-icons.revealTreeView", false);

Then restart. Better?

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis Thank you 😘 , It's now work very well for me now 🎉

[Alhadis]

My pleasure!

I'll update the readme's troubleshooting section to include this, because you're not the first person to bring this up.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis But there is a new 🐛 spawned after run atom.config.set("file-icons.reavelTreeView", fales); I it post on the other packages call tree-view-autoresize, can you look at it ? maybe you can fix it.

[Alhadis]

I'll look once I'm in front of a desktop computer again.

[Alhadis]

@ooJerryLeeoo Does this still happen after disabling the tree-view-autoresize package?

I also need to stress one important fact: the code I gave you is a hack. In fact, it's a hack to fix a hack that I needed to do because people were complaining about the tree-view not opening automatically.

Thankfully, they're all temporary issues. Assuming the Atom team decide to merge atom/tree‑view#1009.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis tree-view-autoresize is a package that while auto adjust the tree-view width when you expand folder, so my problem here is that after disable revealTreeView, the tree-view-autoresize package cannot auto adjust the tree-view width.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis If you still don't understand what I'm saying here's a gif to reproduce the 🐛:

[Alhadis]

I'm not asking you to disable tree-view-autoresize permanently. Just disable it once, and restart Atom. I want to be 100% sure there's nothing else that's causing problems here.

Once confirmed, you can re-enable the package again. Then I'll work on a fix.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis I've found the problem 😄
The problem here is that the tree-view-autoresize will not start running after restart atom, because after I disable and enable the package, the tree-view will start autoresize again.

[Alhadis]

I'm sorry, I'm still confused... :( I feel there's a language barrier here.

Anyway, I'll just assume you don't have any other packages installed which are causing complications. I see the error in my console, so I'll work on fixing that, I guess.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis Sorry, my english is terrible.

Okay, I will try to explain this issue as well as I can.
Here's how the tree-view-autoresize work before I run atom.config.set("file-icons.revealTreeView", false);

and my problem is after I run atom.config.set("file-icons.revealTreeView", false); and restart Atom, the tree-view-autoresize not working anymore, until I re-enable the tree-view-autoresize package.

[Alhadis]

@ooJerryLeeoo Don't worry. =) I understand that English isn't your first language, so you don't have to apologise.

I'm having troubles reproducing this, even when following your steps.

Could you please do the following for me?

1. Copy+paste the contents of ~/.atom/config.cson. I need to see what your exact settings are.
2. Run the following command in your Terminal: apm ls -i. Copy+paste its output - this shows us what packages and themes are installed and active.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis Okay, here's my config repository.

[Alhadis]

谢谢！That's perfect, thank you. =)

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis By the way, that's simplified chinese, I'm using traditional chinese 😄 謝謝！

[Alhadis]

Oh whoops, I noticed you're from Taiwan. Haha, sorry... I must've confused you with another recent reporter who's from Beijing.

By the way, does this error still happen when you start Atom in dev-mode?

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis Yes, it still happen when dev-mode.

And I've found another new problem: I cannot scroll past end after run atom.config.set("file-icons.revealTreeView", false);

[Alhadis]

Are errors being emitted to your dev-console?

Also, does the error happen when you deactivate EVERY package EXCEPT for file-icons and tree-view-autoresize? I noticed there's quite a few things installed... sometimes one package does something that causes another package to behave badly. So it might be the fault of some third package...

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis I get this console message ~/.atom/packages/file-icons/lib/consumers/tree-view.js:38 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property '0' of null(…)

and, It still happened when I disable all package except file-icons and tree-view-autoresize...

[Alhadis]

I was writing a reply when a wolf spider decided to crawl across my keyboard... and after catching it and releasing it outside, I returned to find my message gone. :\ Guess the spider snuck in to eat what I was typing.

Anyway, it was something along the lines of asking you to check if this is what you see when you enter _FileIcons.treeView in the dev-console, but it doesn't matter. I managed to get the full stack trace:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property '0' of null(…) @ tree-view.js:38
    activate                                                         @ tree-view.js:38
    updateStatus                                                     @ consumer.js:206
    disposables.add.atom.packages.onDidActivatePackage               @ consumer.js:84
    module.exports.Emitter.simpleDispatch                            @ emitter.js:25
    module.exports.Emitter.emit                                      @ emitter.js:129
    (anonymous function)                                             @ package-manager.coffee:469

... and with a little editing, I noticed treeView really is null when it shouldn't be null...

So far, zero luck! I'm probably going to kludge this one, and pray to God that @50Wliu accidentally slips, falls and presses the Merge button on atom/tree-view#1009. 😁

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis Here's what I get when I run _FileIcons.treeView in the dev console:

[Alhadis]

Wait, you're using Atom Beta? Okay, this changes everything.

When filing a bug report, please make sure to include all possible version information. Maintainers prefer to have too much information instead of not enough.

I'll have to recheck everything using Beta... sigh :(

@ooJerryLeeoo I've pushed a fix for this, but I need you to tell me it really works.

Could you please clone the latest changes to file-icons locally? Run this in your terminal:

cd ~/.atom/dev/packages
git clone https://github.com/file-icons/atom.git file-icons && cd file-icons
apm install .

Then restart Atom in dev mode and tell me if the error vanishes.

[jerrykal]

@Alhadis It fixed 🎉 very thanks 👊

[Alhadis]

Thank fuck for that. 😀 Thank you so much for your patience and help with all of this.
