Issue running standup-helper.sh

[notwaldorf]

@KernelDeimos I'm using oh-my-zsh, so this should work in zsh as well :(

[notwaldorf]

As of version 1.2.0 there's a new way to use the terminal that doesn't involve the bash script, that should fix your problems. To use that, set the TTC_GITBOT environment variable to gitlog. This will become the default way in the future, I'm just giving it a bit of time in the wild before switching to it

Thanks for the report, do you mind checking to see if the patch in #42 fixes the problem for you? I have a strong feeling this is due to the way the spawn call is being constructed. Not sure why it works in some environments though but not others.

That does prevent the exception when I change both today and week, but I'm not seeing any commits when loading tiny-care-terminal in iterm or terminal

[KernelDeimos]

I also just received this error, and like @michaelbrawn I was using zsh. I just tried it in bash and it works fine! So, for some reason this doesn't work in zsh... I'll look into this if I have the time

[michaelbrawn]

Bash and fish worked for me, but still not getting commits in any of them. It's potentially an issue with my env variables.

[KernelDeimos]

So, I have no idea why this works, but replacing
var spawn = require( 'child_process' ).spawn;
with
var spawn = require( 'child_process' ).exec;
actually fixes this!

@KernelDeimos is right, the hotfix from #42 helped me get rid of the first out of two messages, but the second remained. Switching .spawn to .exec helped get rid of the second error message too.

[michaelbrawn]

The changes in #18 work for me. I also had to change my TTC_REPOS to use the absolute path to my repo directory (/Users/username/repos/)

[notwaldorf]

I think there are still a lot of problems with #18, so I will make the exec change today (and add the TTC_DEPTH while i'm at it)

Update: switching from spawn to exec definitely doesn't work for me :(

Ok, here are the steps I took to get my tiny care terminal to boot:

1. update the today and week (lines 119 and 127 in care.js), to match
   var today = spawn(__dirname + '/standup-helper.sh' + config.repos, [config.repos], {shell:true});
var week = spawn(__dirname + '/standup-helper.sh', ['-m ' + config.depth + ' -d 7', config.repos], {shell:true});

2. I updated the spawn as indicated in this thread to:
   var spawn = require('child_process').exec;

3. I chmoded the git-standup.sh file:
   sudo chmod -R a+rwx /usr/local/var/nodenv/versions/4.7.0/lib/node_modules/tiny-care-terminal/standup-helper.sh

(I'm using nodenv, update the path to match what you have locally)

Now it runs but has no content, so I'm going back to configuring the .zsh file :)
