Doesn't work on MacOS about coc-discord-rpc

[Vaansh]

If you haven't figured it out, here is what worked for me:

1. $ find /private/var/folders -name "*discord-ipc*" 2> /dev/null
   in my case it returned: /private/var/folders/g3/znz8yyl55ls27thh9l56x6rr0000gn/T/discord-ipc-0
2. Go into /.config/coc/extensions/node_modules/coc-discord-rpc/lib and open index.js.
3. Change line 3046 from return ${prefix.replace(/\/$/, '')}/discord-ipc-${id}; to return /var/folders/g3/znz8yyl55ls27thh9l56x6rr0000gn/T/discord-ipc-${id};

Configure 3. to return your discord pic path accordingly, and put both the returns in backticks.

@Vaansh znz8yyl55ls27thh9l56x6rr0000gn is this value static? If so, then I can modify the RPC library to detect whether it is running on macOS or not.

The value is not static. Mine was different.

@leonardssh No, I do not think it is static since it’s different from someone’s path in another issue.

If you haven't figured it out, here is what worked for me:

1. `$ find /private/var/folders -name "*discord-ipc*" 2> /dev/null`
   in my case it returned: `/private/var/folders/g3/znz8yyl55ls27thh9l56x6rr0000gn/T/discord-ipc-0`

2. Go into `/.config/coc/extensions/node_modules/coc-discord-rpc/lib` and open `index.js`.

3. Change line 3046 from `return ${prefix.replace(/\/$/, '')}/discord-ipc-${id};` to `return /var/folders/g3/znz8yyl55ls27thh9l56x6rr0000gn/T/discord-ipc-${id};`

Configure 3. to return your discord pic path accordingly, and put both the returns in backticks.

It worked for me too, thank you. Should be fixed in the project also.

Hmm, then, there is another solution, we could execute find /private/var/folders -name "*discord-ipc*" 2> /dev/null using child_process, and that's how we find the path where the discord-ipc is. But I'm going to need one of you for tests if you want to help me. 😊

It seems that there is already a PR with a solution to this problem: discordjs/RPC#113
