Weird behaviour from Envoy

posted 9 years ago

I'm experiencing something odd with Envoy, and I don't where I'm going wrong. It seems to ignore some bash commands unless there is an "echo" statement before it.

So I have this:

@task('composer')
    cd {{ $release }}
    composer install --prefer-dist
@endtask

But composer never gets run. If I change the above to

@task('composer')
    cd {{ $release }}
    echo ""
    composer install --prefer-dist
@endtask

Then it works fine. I'm using a macro which runs 7 tasks. I've done a few searches and can't seem to find anyone else with the same problem. Was hoping someone knows whats going on.

Solution

Same issues to me. I ran with --pretend and I see no carriage return at the end of line. try:

envoy run composer --pretend

Otherwise if you insert extra empty lines that will do the trick for you

@task('composer')
    cd {{ $release }}

    composer install --prefer-dist
@endtask
