Thanks to some amazing detective work by @ng-marcus - we discovered that doing
readSync
on the0
file descriptor doesn't always work in node (depending on how values are pushed into stdin); however,readFileSync
on the0
file descriptor always works as expected!With this discovery, I reworked the way we workaround JSOO's mock stdin by using their
Sys_js.set_channel_filler
API, which then just callsfs.readFileSync(0)
. Unfortunately, those APIs can't be using in a native build, so I needed to do some dune trickery to concat the workaround to the top ofgrainc.re
when we are building for JS.I wonder if @hhugo has a better way to handle this. I'm happy to open an issue for cleanup.
