Environment:

> node --version
v8.11.1

I'm starting to set up hypernova in a Rails + Webpack repository.

By importing the hypernova server module, it seems my globals are polluted.

The only difference in my script is the following line:

const hypernova = require('hypernova/server');

which produces the following error trace:

yarn run v1.6.0
$ node script/hypernova.js
/Users/juanca/workspace/project/node_modules/html-webpack-plugin/index.js:10
Promise.promisifyAll(fs);
        ^

While the error is not in the hypernova source, it is being caused by a hypernova module -- since it works without processing the module.

I was wondering whether this is true, whether this is fixable, whether this is intended, etc. I would be happy to make a PR if it is an acceptable improvement: removing dependencies on the global Promise object.

hypernova used bluebird, but doesn’t shim anything; promisifyAll is a bluebird method. Perhaps you have code that is relying on bluebird being the global Promise?

I looked into it a bit more.

I have been able to isolate the side effects with the following code:

var Promise = require('bluebird');
console.log(Promise.promisifyAll);

const hypernova = require('hypernova/server');
console.log(Promise.promisifyAll);

which outputs the following:

yarn run v1.6.0
$ node script/hypernova.js
[Function]
undefined

I'm going to dig into hypernova/server now -- though at a quick glance I can't seem to find any reference to bluebird.


For the sake of more information:

It seems that node_modules/hypernova/lib/environment.js is modifying the exported module from bluebird.

What's the intention of that file?


I'll open a PR in case we want some changes.

ah, it's to ensure that the global promise lacks Bluebird-specific methods.
