Build errors on Arch related to website and napi

[ghst-0]

Since 1.17.0 there is a build error on Arch Linux.

error: linking with `cc` failed: exit status: 1
...
error: could not compile `website` (bin "website") due to 1 previous error
...
note: some `extern` functions couldn't be found; some native libraries may need to be installed or have their path specified

The error happens when the task website is being compiled, it seems to be a linker error related to napi.

Possibly related, in website/Cargo.toml there is this line:

# Disable default features to avoid `napi-rs` dependency, which causes linker errors

This might well be a problem on the packaging side, the oxlint package is out of date on Arch Linux (stuck at 1.16.0 which seems suspiciously related), yet any hints of what to change to make it build would be very much appreciated.

For reference, the build script used is here (with the version and corresponding hash changed for version 1.22.0): https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/oxc/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD?ref_type=heads

Thanks.

How are you building it, and what exactly are you building.

In 1.17 (i think), we changed how we package oxlint to require nodejs. It is now distributed as a node+napi package. This change was made in order to support custom JS plugins. However it has the consequent that oxlint is no longer a binary, and cannot be built as such

How are you building it, and what exactly are you building.

I linked the relevant PKGBUILD, this is the official Arch Linux package. Build files in Arch are very readable, but picking out the essential build commands from that file, combining the prepare() and build() functions and substituting the names we get the following (the source code has been extracted to oxc-oxlint_v1.22.0):

cd "oxc-oxlint_v1.22.0"

export RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable
cargo fetch --locked --target "$(rustc -vV | sed -n 's/host: //p')"
export RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable
export CARGO_TARGET_DIR=target

cd "oxc-oxlint_v1.22.0"
cargo build --frozen --release --all-features

I was looking for build instructions related to 1.17.0 but could not find them.

Yes I read the PR #13723

How can the build commands above be changed to work in 1.17.0+?

Thanks for summarising.

To build the oxlint locallt now, you'd run:

pnpm run build

inside apps/oxlint. This will produce a .node file as well as the JS code that's needed to run oxlint. Then the entry point is inside dist/cli.js.

Hopefully that helps?

Thanks yes, this method works to build oxlint, this means that pnpm is now a build time dependency.

pnpm gives a warning as it does not run the install scripts of 3 packages (for obvious security reasons):

As a note I cannot feel but sad to see that the build is all complicated and tangled up with NPM even to the point of including eslint and esbuild in the source tree(!).

As part of the build process some 315mb of JavaScript NPM packages are now downloaded split into 723 packages, this makes it very hard to reason about what code actually goes into the build. I guess even a Rust tool cannot but cater to the requirements from the JavaScript ecosystem where security was always an afterthought...

---

Running the generated file works (the following corresponds to what was previously the oxlint command):

node apps/oxlint/dist/cli.js

Obviously this needs some fixing up so that a system wide oxlint command can be provided from the Arch package and some number of files needs to be copied to the system folder. I did not do this yet, this is all packaging related stuff and I guess someone knowledgeable about packaging NAPI things would know how to do this.

My last question is about the server, where is the oxc_language_server? I cannot see it being built (apologize if I just missed it!).

Inside oxc-oxlint_v1.22.0/node_modules/.bin/ there is a javascript oxc_language_server but seems to refer back to a downloaded NPM package (oxlint) and not built (did I mention how convoluted the build tree is?).

[ghst-0]

For reference here is a PKGBUILD that works to build oxlint v1.22.0, obviously the package_oxlint() and package_oxc-language-server() functions are just placeholders, they are supposed to copy all required (built) files from the source tree.

I believe this was fixed by napi-rs/napi-rs#2996 through #15323.
