Wrangler: Unable to to use Wrangler in CI (BitBucket Pipeline)

[matthew-petrie]

Is it possible to install Wrangler in a CI/CD environment, spcifically BitBucket Pipelines in our case?

If we do npm i @cloudflare/wrangler -g the installation fails with Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/root/.wrangler':

npm i @cloudflare/wrangler -g
/usr/local/bin/wrangler -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/@cloudflare/wrangler/run-wrangler.js
> @cloudflare/[email protected] postinstall /usr/local/lib/node_modules/@cloudflare/wrangler

If we do npm i @cloudflare/wrangler it installs (installation logs below) but when you try to then run wrangler publish --release we receive bash: wrangler: command not found:

The above is using a Node 12.6.0 container image, I've also tried a Node 8-jessie image too and changing the user the container is running as to no avail.

Thanks very much!

Hey @matthew1534 - we recommend installing node/npm with a version manager like nvm. Could you try uninstalling node/npm and reinstalling with nvm and then installing wrangler afterwards? Please update if that works! Thanks for the report

Hey @EverlastingBugstopper - thanks for the above super quick reply. I've now managed to get this working using a debian container image and running the below commands:

apt-get update
apt-get -y install wget
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.34.0/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bashrc
nvm install 12.6.0
npm config set user 0
npm config set unsafe-perm true
npm i @cloudflare/wrangler -g
export CF_API_KEY=$CF_API_KEY
export CF_EMAIL=$CF_EMAIL
wrangler publish --release

We get a sh: 1: node: Permission denied error unless we run npm config set unsafe-perm true which doesn't seem so great?

Thanks :)

[EverlastingBugstopper]

You can likely get around this by not running these commands as root. Hope this helps :)

thanks!
