App

Expected behavior

When running shopify app dev inside a container, I expect the interactive authentication process to work seamlessly, regardless of whether there is an open TTY.

The xdg-utils package is required for the polling to work correctly:

shopify-prototype-app-1  | To run this command, log in to Shopify.
shopify-prototype-app-1  | User verification code: XXXXX-XXXX
shopify-prototype-app-1  | 👉 Open this link to start the auth process: https://accounts.shopify.com/activate-with-code?device_code%5Buser_code%5D=XXXX-XXXX
shopify-prototype-app-1  | ✔ Logged in.

This is my Dockerfile:

FROM node:18-alpine as base

EXPOSE 3000

WORKDIR /app
COPY . .

FROM base as dev

ENV NODE_ENV=development
ENV PATH="/app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH"

RUN apk --no-cache add ca-certificates wget git gcompat vim xdg-utils

RUN npm install
RUN npm run build

CMD ["shopify", "app", "dev"]

Actual behavior

Since version 3.65.0, we get an error regarding the terminal not being interactive:

shopify-prototype-app-1  | To run this command, log in to Shopify.

shopify-prototype-app-1  | ╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

Looking at the source, a change has been made to require an open TTY.
Additionally, the link is only displayed without a (IMO pointless) required keypress if the code assumes it's running in a cloud environment.
