Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'F:\Flat Projects\aquasoft\$GIT_PARAMS' on Windows

[osnoser1]

Hello, I am presented with this error when calling the script "commitmsg ":"commitlint -e $GIT_PARAMS".

I do not know if any other configuration is required that I do not know.

I hope you can help me, and thank you very much in advance.

Reading the paths in the error message I guess you are on a Windows machine, right?

Could you try with commitlint -e %GIT_PARAMS%?

[osnoser1]

Hi, yes...

Still gives the same error.

I also tried with .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG.

I put a console.log in require-from-string.

And this is my commitlint.config.js file:

I deleted the file commitlint.config.js and created it manually without echo "module.exports = {extends: ['@commitlint/config-angular']};" > commitlint.config.js and eliminated the error, it worked.

However, I do not know what happens with the $GIT_PARAMS variable in windows.

[osnoser1]

It seems that there are problems using echo in powershell. Add this strange character?

With cmd it generates the file in this way:

echo module.exports = {extends: ['@commitlint/config-angular']}; > commitlint.config.js

And in bash it also works well.

[marionebl]

The echo ... command is indeed only tested on bash.

I do not have access to win32 machines very often, so this is hard to test for me.

$GIT_PARAMS is intended to be used with husky. If you do not plan to use husky, just

commitlint -e

should be sufficient.

[osnoser1]

Yes I am using husky.

I leave this issue open?

For my part I will investigate to see what solution can be given to the use of the variable $GIT_PARAMS on Windows.

Thank you very much @marionebl

[marionebl]

Yes, let's leave this open for now. We should check how to pass the path to the git commit edit message from husky to commitlint in a cross-platform compatible manner.

Also failed with this error in git bash on windows
"commitmsg": "commitlint -e" works for me

[SangKa]

I still get the same error and "commitmsg": "commitlint -e .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG" works for me.

System: Window 7 x64
Node: 8.9.0

[marionebl]

@SangKa: Does commitlint -e %GIT_PARAMS% work for you?

[SangKa]

Unfortunately no, so I got here.

[marionebl]

Okay, we'll have to implement a rather grungy fix for this, along the lines of

function normalizeEdit(edit) {
  if (typeof edit === 'boolean') {
     return edit;
  }
  if (edit === '$GIT_PARARMS' || edit === '%GIT_PARAMS%') {
    if (!'GIT_PARAMS' in process.env) {
       throw new Error(`Received ${edit} as value for -e | --edit, but GIT_PARAMS is not available globally.`);
    }
    return process.env.GIT_PARAMS;
  }
  return edit;
}

commitlint -e %GIT_PARAMS% works fine on Windows
commitlint -e works for both Windows and Mac
