So, I'm cross-posting this from the gatsby-cli repo, because I'm not sure if netlify dev or gatsby develop is effecting the things I'm describing below. The first part is the relevant part, but I'm going to leave it all up in-case someone can help me:

I'm working with another developer, and he's getting the localhost:8888 to show up after running netlify-dev, but I'm not. I'm pretty certain it's because he's using an older version of gatsby-cli. I'm on 2.8.18 (just updated and tested 2.8.19 as well) and he's on an older one (I can check tm). I see these In Progress bars that don't finish, but he doesn't. Here's a comparison, and we're on the same master.
My terminal:

His terminal:


Now, I don't know if this is netlify's cli or gatsby's that is bringing up the new warnings, but I can't check a plain gatsby develop because I'm injected environment variables with netlify-dev which then calls gatsby-develop right after they're injected. So I'm wondering where these new UI updates with the progress bars and createPages warnings are from ?
My second problem I'm also hoping someone can lead me to the right direction of fixing this warning that only shows up sometimes? It's about returning a promise. I had a look at sync-actions from the gatsby docs in which the warning led me, but we seem to have used a different method for our creating pages and I can't use the same fix. Can someone help explain what I can do to fix this? Screenshot is below, and gatsby-node.js code is at the very bottom. Thanks

X-posting my comment from my similar Gatsby repo issue.
Is my netlify-cli issues / changes expected behaviour?

His netlify-cli: netlify-cli/2.11.23 darwin-x64 node-v10.16.0
Secondly... the act of rolling back to 2.11.23 fixed the weird progress bar issues and I can fully see the localhost:8888. I don't see the error about returning promises either.

Oddly enough, re-installing netlify-cli sent me back to the SAME version I was on, but now everything's fixed. But the localhost: is randomly generating 6* numbers. Which doesn't bother me, but honestly I'm just confused. Actually I tested it 3 times, so the numbers vary a lot now.

I'm going to see if I can reproduce the returning promises error now that this is fixed, and I'll try and implement those suggestions you made as well about the node! Thank you for that.
I know this seems to be a Netlify CLi issue now but I'll leave this is because it seems relevant.
It sounds like something might already be running on localhost:8888 on your machine and netlify dev assigns as random port instead.
Can you run killall -9 node in your terminal to stop all node processes and run netlify dev again to see if this fixes the port issue?
Nope, I never got the prompt about "do you want to run on another port y/n". Just to be sure I also restarted my computer and re-ran the netlify-dev command. Still getting random servers:

I'm just happy it looks normal again though. So this is unexpected behaviour back on netlify-cli/2.25.0 darwin-x64 node-v10.16.2 ?
I also get this little "Exit received" message now which is presumably just from the newer versions.

Interesting.
Can we try running netlify dev with the port specified
USAGE
$ netlify dev
OPTIONS
-c, --command=command command to run
-f, --functions=functions Specify a functions folder to serve
-o, --offline disables any features that require network access
-p, --port=port Specify port of netlify dev
Try this:
netlify dev -p 8888
Followup Q, Do you have a [dev] block in your toml file?
Running it with -p 8888 worked as expected with a localhost:8888, but then running it again without went back to random numbers.
netlify.toml:
[build]
publish = "public"
command = "npm run build"
It sounds like the detection we use to determine gatsby is being used it not working on your machine for some reason.
You can set the netlify dev settings in the toml file like so https://github.com/netlify/cli/blob/master/docs/netlify-dev.md#netlifytoml-dev-block
Thanks for reporting this issue and for the detail!
Sounds like you are running gatsby 2.8.18, what version was the other developer running (where it was working fine)
It's in the screenshot a few replies up!
He's using gatsby 2.7.7 with netlify 2.11.13
I'm on gatsby 2.8.19 with netlify 2.25.0
I'm just an update whore which can be a blessing and a curse.
Thanks, is there any pros / cons about having a random port, or why I'd need to always have 8888, out of curiosity?
And just to re-iterate. I was on netlify 2.25.0 when all these weird things were happening, but the act of rolling back to 2.11.13 and then again back to the latest, fixed my UI issues but started the random ports. Hopefully that information is useful ๐คท๐ฝโโ๏ธ
The 8888 port shouldn't matter. If the dev server at random port 23112 works for you.
It would be nice to have this consistency though.
Under the hood, we have detectors to figure out what SSG is being used. Those detectors should be setting the port to 8888 for gatsby https://github.com/netlify/cli/blob/master/src/detectors/gatsby.js#L22 . It appears that your version isn't being detected though. We will need to look into this!
Having the same issue with Nuxt and 2.25.0. Tried rolling back to 2.11.13 with no effect. Came back to 2.25.0 endless dots continue.
