On Windows, the gentimeSettings are written broken to the file because of endent

[janpio]

In #49 unexpectedly the Windows tests fail. Turns out the test project is using an output for the Prisma Client generator which now would be used (correctly) - and for some reason that path is wrong/invalid.

After some local reproduction I found this in .yalc\nexus-prisma\dist\runtime\index.js:

const gentimeSettings = {
  "projectIdIntToGraphQL": "Int",
  "docPropagation": {
    "GraphQLDocs": true,
    "JSDoc": true
  },
  "prismaClientLocation": "C:\\Users\\Jan\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\9dfe0c5ba27ce64390f947e584e3caeb\
ode_modules\\@prisma\\client"
}

Investigation: #49 (comment)

End result: There seems to be unexpected behavior coming from endent that is used to format that output.

Reproduction:

const endent = require("endent").default;

var string = "c:\\some\\windows\\path\\with\\node_modules\\in\it"

var prettyString = endent`
  before
    ${string}
  after
`;

console.log(string + "\n\n" + prettyString);

You will get the following output:

C:\Users\Jan\Documents\throwaway\ententRepro>node repro.js
c:\some\windows\path\with\node_modules\init

before
  c:\some\windows\path\with
ode_modules\init
after

vs. expected

C:\Users\Jan\Documents\throwaway\ententRepro>node repro.js
c:\some\windows\path\with\node_modules\init

before
  c:\some\windows\path\with\node_modules\init
after

Quickly looking https://github.com/indentjs/endent/blob/master/src/index.ts I see a lot of potential for not handling \\n there. Going to try moving to another library: https://github.com/tamino-martinius/node-ts-dedent#readme.

New library solves the issue:

But now tamino-martinius/node-ts-dedent#21 fun fun.

[jasonkuhrt]

endent uses dedent https://github.com/indentjs/endent/blob/master/src/index.ts#L58

dedent does this https://github.com/dmnd/dedent/blob/master/dedent.js#L49

that is the bug

My solution was to remove that LOC

Doing so did not break the endent test suite (4 tests...)

It also did not break the NP test suite (more tests, a few dozen)

So there we go, YAL (yet another library) called this time dindist https://github.com/jasonkuhrt/dindist. Made this on my own time technically and it is a small thing so just made it on my account. It is also sloppy.
