Setting environment variables on PHP / Ubuntu about nickjs

[paps]

Hi there, can you show what method you're using to start NickJS please?

Hi paps!
$proc = proc_open('node test.js', $in, $out);

One of the parameters of proc_open is an array of environment variables to forward to the child process. It should work if you set CHROME_PATH this way.

Can't get it to work yet

$in =[];
$out = [];
$env = ["CHROME_PATH"=>"/usr/bin/chromium-browser"];
$cwd = getcwd() ;
$proc = proc_open('node test.js',  $in, $out, $cwd, $env);

I don't mind using exec() or shell_exec() if they are more simple to follow putenv(). I hope I can learn more than one way

It's hard to tell what's going on. What error are you getting? I need more info to help :)

I finally got it!
The env vars were loaded right, but the script was failing silently because of the script saving screenshot had no write permissions and I didn't notice that. Thanks a lot :)

Nice, glad to hear that :)
