Vscode-code-runner: /bin/sh: ts-node: command not found

[mrdulin]

I have already install ts-node.

I did not do any setting up.

[formulahendry]

Is ts-node in your PATH environment variable, and have you restarted VS Code?

[mrdulin]

@formulahendry ts-node in node_modules/.bin/ts-node. And, I use command + q quit vscode and restarted. The problem still there

[formulahendry]

You need either put ts-node in your PATH environment variable, or set the path of ts-node in File->Preference->Settings:

"code-runner.executorMap": {
    "typescript": "node_modules/.bin/ts-node"
}

@formulahendry

1. I don't want to use ts-node installed globally.
2. expect code-runner look up ts-node locally, if local ts-node is not existed, then look up global one.

[formulahendry]

Since Code Runner supports several languages and user is able to customize the path, we will not support this feature. You could udpate executorMap per your need.

[HaoyangFan]

is it possible for code runner supports the use of npx which automatically loads the binaries from local node_modules, and bundles it with the locally installed ts-node automatically so that we don't need to add anything to the user setting/ workspace setting?

[formulahendry]

@HaoyangFan I am not familiar with npx. It is loaded in .bashrc? If it is, you could run the code in terminal which will load .bashrc: "code-runner.runInTerminal": true

[mrdulin]

My solution is:

 "code-runner.executorMap": {
    "typescript": "node -r ts-node/register",
    "javascript": "node"
  }

I think it's better than the solution @formulahendry provided. You don't need care about the path like this: ${whatever PATH}/node_modules/.bin/ts-node. Because the PATH often changes.

you must install ts-node global, u can try again
