env: node: No such file or directory about oh-my-fish

Which plugin are you using? When are you having this error message? Please add more details to the problem so we can help out.

I am trying to start the ember server via ember server. Normally in bash, having source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh in .bashrc will get this working

@krzkrzkrz NVM is written in bash, thus it will not work seamlessly with fish. I recommend you to use foreign-env plugin to run NVM inside fish.

[krzkrzkrz]

Would https://github.com/tj/n be a better fit for Fish?

[krzkrzkrz]

Also, using foreign-env. Installed via omf install foreign-env. Where should the following go?

fenv source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh \;

In ~/.config/fish/config.fish?

[derekstavis]

This line doesn't do anything usable. NVM is implemented as a bash function, so you need to specify a nvm command afterwards:

fenv source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh \; nvm --help

[krzkrzkrz]

@derekstavis which file should that line go into?

[derekstavis]

This line don't need to be anywhere, you need to use it to install node versions:

fenv source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh\; nvm install 0.10

Or to use a specific node version:

fenv source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh\; nvm use 0.10

But if you need to change to a node version just when you open a new shell:

echo 'fenv source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh\; nvm use 0.10' >> $OMF_CONFIG/init.fish

EDIT: mistyped, it's init.fish not init/fish

[derekstavis]

Bear in mind that as nvm is a bash function it will not be available in fish. Foreign env executes its arguments inside bash, that's why you need to fenv source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh\; in the same live where you call nvm.
It's on my plans adding a nvm plugin to the framework, but as it's dependant upon foreign-env we need to tackle plugin dependency management before.

Good to know and thanks for the help. Closing for now
