Git post-receive hook not finding env: node: No such file or directory

Question

I have an idea of what the problem is, but I don't know how to fix it. My issue is that when I run the script post-receive, I get the error env: node: No such file or directory.

I think it may be because its a non-interactive shell and that I should change the $PATH, but I don't understand enough to know what I need to do. When I source the file, npm works without any issues. It only occurs when I call the script elsewhere remotely.

I'm using homebrew, nodev8, and postgres. I also have nvm managing node.

Here is my script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash . $NVM_DIR/nvm.sh echo 'post-receive: Triggered.' cd /Users/david/Development/abba/live/404 echo 'post-receive: git check out...' git --git-dir=/Users/david/Development/abba/404.git --work-tree=/Users/david/Development/abba/live/404 checkout master -f /Users/david/.nvm/v8.15.0/bin/npm install && echo 'post-receive: -> done.'

Environment:

which node # /Users/david/.nvm/v8.15.0/bin/node echo $PATH # /Users/david/.nvm/v8.15.0/bin:/usr/local/opt/node@8/bin:/usr/local/opt/node@8/bin:/usr/local/opt/node@8/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/opt/node@8/bin:/usr/local/opt/node@8/bin

.bash_profile:

export PATH="/usr/local/opt/node@8/bin:" export NVM_DIR="/Users/david/.nvm" [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm

I'm currently facing the exact same problem. Did you get it solved? — acb1980

@acb1980 no, I don't think so.. its been a while, since i last looked at it. I'll take a stab at it again soon though. Any progress on your end? — David Trinh

No, unfortunately not. It seems not to be possible to use node on a systems that generates this error. I've changed my workflow now so that I call node on another machine in the build process. Not the perfect solution, but it works for me. — acb1980

I came across this same issue when trying to have a git post-receive hook trigger a build step. In my case, I solved the issue by symlinking the node binary into the /usr/bin/folder

ln -s `which node` /usr/bin/node

I found a github issue which had a similar error here: https://github.com/animetosho/Nyuu/issues/14.

In that issue they used ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
