[MacOSX 10.10.1 / iTerm 2.1] Interaction problems

[mjurczyk]

After release slap@0.1.28 slap interaction does not automatically update (on click/on directional key).

Release 0.1.29 introduced some fix/feature (986b081?) that changed slap's behaviour under iTerm2 on Mac OS X.

Selection does not update unless user inputs text / selects another file. Mouse input and directional keys work and change selection, although it is not shown on the screen.

last working version:

slap@0.1.28, node@1.6.4, v8@4.1.0.27, openssl@1.0.1m, modules@43, ares@1.10.0-DEV, zlib@1.2.8, uv@1.4.2, http_parser@2.3.0

@mjurczyk there is a race condition in NodeJS >0.10 and all versions of iojs that causes stdin to sporadically block on OSX (see libuv/libuv#304). This has been fixed as of libuv@1.6.0, which will be included in the next release of NodeJS (see nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#25475).

Can you try installing on NodeJS 0.10 to confirm?

with the latest nodejs from extra ppa for ubuntu I have the same issue.

[mjurczyk]

@dbkaplun sorry, but that doesn't seem to be a case.
Tried following configurations ( + previously on io.js ):

slap@0.1.31, node@0.11.16, v8@3.28.73, openssl@1.0.1l, modules@14, zlib@1.2.8, uv@1.0.2, http_parser@2.3

slap@0.1.31, node@0.10.38, v8@3.14.5.9, openssl@1.0.1m, modules@11, zlib@1.2.8, uv@0.10.36, ares@1.9.0-DEV, http_parser@1.0

Both work smoothly on slap@v0.1.28, none runs smoothly on any further version.

Under _v0.9.12_ package could not be installed due to dependency errors:

I've pushed an issue-164 branch that might fix your problems. Can you try npm install -g slap-editor/slap#issue-164 and see if that solves your issue?

I am using iTerm 2.1 as well and cannot reproduce. If that doesn't help, can you try npm install -g slap-editor/slap#<commit> for each commit between 0.1.28 (known good) and 0.1.29 (known bad) so we can determine what commit is to blame?

[mjurczyk]

@dbkaplun unfortunately issue-164 did not fix the issue. I will try finding the breaking commit.

[mjurczyk]

Just as I thought, 986b081 breaks the interactions.

After checking things in the commits I found that text-buffer is the problem. Limiting text-buffer version to 6.1.x fixes the problem on both node and iojs.

[dbkaplun]

I've released 0.1.32 with your PR. Can you confirm the issue is fixed?

[mjurczyk]

Version 0.1.32 works perfectly for me on iojs ;)

[dbkaplun]

Excellent, closing. :)
