Command never outputs anything

[sazzer]

I've been playing with this because it seems incredibly useful, and it doesn't work. It never outputs anything :(

It seems that the problem is down to require.main === module in index.js. This always returns false for me, no matter what.

This is on Node v18.7.0, and I've been running the tool with both npx pino-filter and node ./node_modules/.bin/pino-filter. If I change that conditional to always be true then it works great, but for some reason with it as-is it doesn't work :(

Cheers

I recommend not using npx. I have no idea how that tool loads the package. Also, we currently do not own the code on npmjs.com, so do not use that published package.

@sazzer , are you running with modules (import and friends)?

It looks like require.main isn't available on modules: https://stackoverflow.com/a/60309682/322418. That could be why that's always false.

My co-workers and I are seeing the same issue you describe, and we're using modules.

Again: we have not published this module to npm. We cannot guarantee what code is being pulled from npmjs.com.

We finally gained publishing rights to the package on npm. I have published v2, but nothing in it has changed except for dependency updates.

A PR to solve this issue would be welcomed.
