$FileDir$ path is giving wrong path in the command

[GonzaloCalandria]

I'm trying to use repo with intellij but the path is wrong.
This is what I have so far:

• Repo installation: C:\Repo
• Cygwin installation: C:\cygwin64
  My task configuration
  

The output for one of the tasks is:
repo: not inside a vault checkout with a jcr_root base directory: /home/phoenix/C:\MyProject\packages\my-application\src\main\content\jcr_root\apps\myapp\components\authoring\hero\clientlibs\js.txt

I don't understand why is adding /home/phoenix/ to the path.

I don't use it on Windows. @mkovacek provided the Windows/cygwin instructions in the readme once. Does it still work for you with the latest repo 1.4?

@GonzaloCalandria in case you're still having this issue, I find that selecting individual files will throw this error. Selecting the folder containing the file won't

[alexkli]

@GonzaloCalandria Let me know if you still have the problem with 1.4. Also we have a contribution with Powershell support coming in, maybe that fixes the issue.

[alexkli]

@GonzaloCalandria this might simply be because IntelliJ passes a windows-style path to repo, such as c:\some\dir, while repo strictly expects unix-style paths, such as /some/dir.

Could you try the same command manually, but with the backslashes converted to slashes?

[GonzaloCalandria]

@alexkli sorry to not answered this before.
I've tested using a cygwin path along with the file relative path like this
-l C:\RepoTool\repo\repo diff /cygdrive/c/demo-project/spa-demo/$/FileRelativePath$
And I got this error when I run diff (I'm testing this with diff).

C:\cygwin64\bin\bash -l C:\RepoTool\repo\repo diff /cygdrive/c/demo-project/spa-demo/ui.apps/src/main/content/jcr_root/apps/spa_demo/components/card/_cq_dialog.xml

Ok... I make it work.. kind off...
but I've used Windows 10 bash instead of cygwin with a few changes.
Here's what I've changed:
Just FYI, this is for IntelliJ and for the diff External Tool

• For Tool Settings: C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe
• For Arguments: /mnt/c/RepoTool/repo/repo diff /mnt/c/demo-project/spa-demo/$/FileRelativePath$ Where /mnt/c/RepoTool/repo/repo is the full path to the repo tool file (I think here you can have the path added to $PATH$ in windows bash system) and /mnt/c/demo-project/spa-demo/ is the root path to my project that I had to hardcode to make it work.

If there's some alternative to include the whole path (in Linux format with the proper slashes and path) would be great!

I have faced same issue, where path is appending incorrect in IntelIij. I have tried bash approach as above, but however i am facing below issue. Please let me know if you have faced below issue and any workaround for this issue.

uploading <Path of file in project>to http://localhost:4502 /mnt/c/Softwares/tools-repo-1.4/repo/repo: line 381: zip: command not found /mnt/c/Softwares/tools-repo-1.4/repo/repo: line 679: unzip: command not found curl: (3) Illegal characters found in URL repo: failed to upload package:

Thank you

I think your problem is that you don't have zip and unzip installed in bash. Maybe you can try installing those two commands?

[karthikgoli]

@GonzaloCalandria

Thank you for your response, installing zip in bash has resolved this issue.

The only issue i have now is in Intellij when i try PUT i have this error
curl: (3) Illegal characters found in URL repo: failed to upload package
However, when i try PUT from bash console it is working fine.

Any suggestion for this issue

I don't have any for that.. sorry.
My only guess is that maybe you can try putting quotes between the path in the configuration of the repo tool?

@GonzaloCalandria thank you for your response
