Kit errors out on running scripts

[lsminter]

This is the error I'm receiving every time I try to run the dad joke script.

It seems like when I try to get access to an external dependency, I get an error.

I've tried deleting my .kenv and my .kit and reinstalling from scratch and no luck.

I've also had issues trying to open it in an editor. I would get a quick error, too fast to see, then kit would close. After deleting everything and reinstalling, I don't have an option to open in VSCode, only Vim and Nano.

I've got it opening in the correct editor now. I'm unsure how code showed up now when selecting a way to edit my code. It just sorta worked after retrying 20 minutes later. Still having the issue with axios though.

It's some axios issue I'm trying to track down. My guess is a peer dependency updated or something.

In a vanilla node.js project, this gets the same 503 error:

var axios = require("axios")

var config = {
  method: "get",
  url: "https://icanhazdadjoke.com/",
  headers: {
    Accept: "text/plain",
  },
}

axios(config)
  .then(function (response) {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data))
  })
  .catch(function (error) {
    console.log(error)
  })

Looks like the server requires a "User-Agent" now. This should work:

// Menu: Dad Joke
// Description: Dad Joke from icanhazdadjoke.com
// Author: John Lindquist
// Twitter: @johnlindquist

let response = await get(`https://icanhazdadjoke.com/`, {
  headers: {
    Accept: "text/plain",
    "User-Agent": "axios 0.21.1",
  },
})

await div(response.data, `p-4`)

[lsminter]

Yep! Works for me!

Kit searches for installed editors using which like so:

PATH="/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin" which code

I'll try to think if there's a more reliable way. I'm not sure how this would have failed.

Worst case scenario is you manually open:

~.kenv/.env

and add:

KIT_EDITOR=code

[lsminter]

Yeah I'm not sure how it got fixed. I wish I had an answer for you.
