urchin only executes test files that have the executable bit, silently skipping the rest,
and `npm run test:check-exec` would catch non-executable ones, but no workflow ran it -
so several test files have never actually run.
Make all of them executable, and fix the ones that were broken:
- the io.js source-install tests, skipped since 2016: io.js requires python 2 and gcc <= 5,
so they now skip on toolchains that can not compile it,
and a new gcc:4.9-container CI job runs them unmodified -
resolving, downloading, checksumming, and compiling io.js for real.
New `fake source` variants exercise nvm's source pipeline everywhere -
cache lookup, offline resolution, extraction, configure, make, make install, activation -
via a tiny fake source tree seeded into the download cache and installed with `--offline`.
Also strengthen the `nvm run | grep` assertions with `--silent`,
since the version banner used to satisfy the grep even when the built binary could not run,
and give the final assertions the `die` they always meant to call.
- `nvm uninstall ... incorrect file permissions fails nicely`, parked in 2025 as failing:
`sudo npm` resets PATH, so node 5's npm crashed under the system node.
The permissions check only trips on files that are neither writable nor self-owned,
and that precondition only needs `sudo touch` - not npm, jspm, or the network -
so use that, against a fake installed version,
and skip only where passwordless sudo does not exist.
- `nvm install --offline`: `nvm ls | tail -1` always grabbed an alias line, never a version;
use `nvm_ls` and skip its trailing `system <version>` line.
- `nvm exec ... help should not parse`: in a BRE, `[options]` is a bracket expression,
so the grep could never match node's literal `Usage: node [options]` output.
- `nvm use ... nvmrc containing not installed version`: current output once again matches its expectations verbatim; no changes needed.
Rewrite `test:check-exec` in POSIX sh - npm runs scripts with /bin/sh, which is dash on Ubuntu,
where the previous `[[`/`$'\n'` bashisms would break;
match by extension, so that filenames containing dots can not dodge the check;
and disable git's `core.quotePath` mangling of the non-ASCII test filenames.
Then wire it into the lint workflow.
Add `try` and `try_err` helper functions to `test/common.sh` that capture stdout/stderr and exit code from a single invocation, eliminating duplicate command executions in tests.
Convert all existing tests that used the `OUTPUT`/`EXIT_CODE` double-invocation pattern to use the new helpers.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug in the `nvm_die_on_prefix` test where ASCII apostrophes were used instead of U+2019 to match nvm.sh output.
Fixed a bug where --silent mode was failing for nvm use I ran a test
that just ran ```nvm use node --silent``` that I wrote by myself.
Unfortunately I noticed a bug where it still prints out some messages in
different cases. This pull request is to fix that bug. * Added in an argument
called ***quiet*** to the nvm_rc_version() function at *line 339* * Printed
anything inside the nvm_rc_version() only in the scenario where quiet mode is
off * Ran the nvm_rc_version() function in quiet mode only if silent mode is
on in the "use" command of nvm at *line 2990* * Ran *nvm_echo* and *nvm_err*
inside the "use" command of nvm only in the scenario where silent mode is off
(There were 4 scenarios where this was forgotten) * Edited the ```nvm
deactivate``` command to include a silent mode * Changed the help page to
include the --silent option for ```nvm deactivate``` * Added in aliases for
the --silent flag in ```nvm deactivate``` and ```nvm use``` * Used silent
mode inside the ```nvm use``` when running ```nvm deactivate``` inside it and
silent mode is on A test was attached in the 'test/slow/nvm use' directory.
It is named *Running "nvm use node --silent" doesn't print anything*. It runs
```nvm use node --silent and checks``` and succeeds if the OUTPUT matches the
EXPECTED_OUTPUT which is *null* or *''*. When the test was run locally, it
still ouputed results if someone deleted some contents of the *.nvm/* folder.
This output was given from the ```nvm deactivate command```. This was the
reason that the ```nvm deactivate``` was edited to include silent mode.
Also fix `nvm uninstall v1.0.3` so it won't uninstall it if it's the current version.
node versions will still take priority if there's ever a version overlap.
