Intro

I'm from there google/clasp/issues/805.

My problem is that the clasp is swallowing the output or locking the output to the terminal.

I'm using spawn calls to run clasp under the webpack watch mode.

The main approach is

spawn('clasp', 'run', {
  stdio: 'inherit',
});

Two things happen there.

1. сlasp pushes data. But it does not add output to console
2. the console doesn't respond to Ctrl+C input. I need to call an event from webpack (it is called first in the current console) then I can press CTRL+C.

This rarely happens. I don't find a pattern.

The reasons for this topic

I'm going to test this fork for the same problem. I will respond within 2 weeks.

Forked @google/clasp

Following discussion with @khalilchoudhry on google#12 from official @google/clasp repository, I started this forked branch.

Changes

It currently includes pending PRs

Pending

The following PR has not (yet) been included. Feedback on it will motivate me to integrate it.

google#715 | enhancement | Add --account <account> flag to clasp open by @maxmclau to solve google#709

Testing the fork

Download this forked branch and build with the command:

npm uninstall -g @google/clasp && npm install && npm audit fix && npm run build

The environment variables clasp_config_project, clasp_config_ignore and clasp_config_auth can the be used to reference config files.

The (temporary) command clasp paths can help you check how config files are resolved.

$ clasp paths
project .clasp.json true .clasp.json
ignore /Users/guillaumec/.claspignore true .claspignore
auth /Users/guillaumec/.clasprc.json true /Users/guillaumec/.clasprc.json
$ clasp paths -A ~/customAuth.json -I ./dev-conf -P ./dev-conf
project ./dev-conf false ./dev-conf
ignore ./dev-conf false ./dev-conf
auth /Users/guillaumec/customAuth.json false /Users/guillaumec/customAuth.json

The clasp --help command should now display new options to reference config files:

$ clasp --help
Usage: clasp <command> [options]

  -P, --project <file>                        path to a project file or to a folder with a '.clasp.json' file.
  -v, --version
  -h, --help                                  output usage information
