karma v1.0.0: You need to include some adapter that implements karma.start method! #162

SerkanSipahi · 2016-06-26T16:05:52Z

After upgrading our project from karma v0.13.22 to v.1.0.0 we get following error:
You need to include some adapter that implements __karma__.start method!

package.json:

...
"jspm": "0.17.0-beta.19",
"karma": "1.0.0",
"karma-jspm": "2.1.1",
...

see relate issue: karma-runner/karma#2194

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Mobiletainment · 2016-06-26T18:17:23Z

I've got the very same error using karma v1.0.0, karma-jspm v2.1.1, jspm v0.16.39 and jasmine v2.4.1 on Windows 10.

This is my current karma.conf.js:

        basePath: './',

        // frameworks to use
        // available frameworks: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-adapter

            'karma-phantomjs-launcher',
            'karma-chrome-launcher'
        ],

        proxies: {
            "/app": "/base/app",
            "/node_modules": "/base/node_modules",

        },

        files: [],

        jspm: {
            serveFiles: [

            ],
            loadFiles: ["jspm_packages/system-polyfills.js", "app/**/*.test.js"]
        },

        // possible values: 'dots', 'progress'
        // available reporters: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-reporter

        // web server port

        singleRun: false,

        concurrency:

And that's the karma output:

Any suggestions on how to get it up and running?

togakangaroo · 2016-06-26T20:34:49Z

Same issue.

I've even gone so far as to place some console.log statments in karma-jspm/src/init.js. It looks like files is getting modified properly but when I look at the generated debug page there's basically nothing being included.

Is there perhaps a change lately in karma where files is cloned before being passed in?

I'm also on win10 but not on jspm 17

Mobiletainment · 2016-06-26T20:54:30Z

just updated to karma v1.1.0, same error here...

togakangaroo · 2016-06-26T21:04:50Z

Odd....I put in the files that we wanted manually into the files array and...same issue.

If I leave the files array populated manually and then remove the jspm plugin it works (sort of, there's a different error but the right files are loaded)

So definitely some issue with what karma-jspm does to files

I'm thinking karma 1.0 changed its DI structure. Here's what karma-requirejs looks like currently

Whereas here is karma-jspm. Note we're not doing any $Inject properties

togakangaroo · 2016-06-26T21:54:53Z

Ok, nevermind that, I do see the $inject confusingly in the separate index.js file. No clue what whats going on then.

RIAstar · 2016-06-28T14:45:15Z

The problem seems to be related to the duplicate referencing of system[.src].js and system-polyfills[.src].js files.

I patched init.js like below and it works as expected.

Replace

var jspmPattern = createServedPattern(packagesPath + '**/*', {nocache: jspm.cachePackages !== true});
    jspmPattern.watched = false;
files.push(jspmPattern);

with

  ['github/**/*', 'npm/**/*', 'system-polyfills.js'].forEach(function (pattern) {
    var jspmPattern = createServedPattern(packagesPath + pattern, jspm.cachePackages !== true);
    jspmPattern.watched = false;
    files.push(jspmPattern);
  });

That's a bit too ugly to make into a PR though.
Also I'm not exactly sure what's going on under the hood yet.

m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o · 2016-07-09T17:17:36Z

Similar to @RIAstar 's line of thinking, I believe that the root issue is that the current implementation overwrites the system-polyfills.src.js and system.src.js "included" attribute which is set here, which is a necessary attribute that tells Karma to include files in script tags as appose to just serving them. If this is true, then an internal error in adapter.js is likely happening because system.src.js was never "included" just "served". We don't see this error because it is likely being swallowed by Karma, and propagating itself as a missing adapter, even though the adapter itself has no fault. I can't prove this yet (although I did spent an hour or so trying just now), it this requires more time — crawling the internals of Karma. At any rate, I just submitted a pr, it's a bit cleaner than the implementation above. I don't see why this shouldn't be merged.

CP-2039 fix(init): issue #162

rolandjitsu · 2016-07-13T09:09:09Z

What is the status on this?

maxwellpeterson-wf · 2016-07-13T14:59:43Z

Fixed in #167, released in karma-jspm 2.2.0.

Sorry, this issue should have gotten closed!

tamird · 2016-07-13T15:18:06Z

This still reproduces with karma 1.1.1 and karma-jspm 2.2.0:

karma start

rolandjitsu · 2016-07-13T15:19:16Z

Same here, that is why I asked. But I have other plugins and I though one of those may be cause that.

m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o · 2016-07-13T15:26:51Z

@rolandjitsu @tamird There are other plugins that might be causing this issue (i.e. chai). I suspect that PhantomJS might be adding to the mix as well. What happens when you run it without PhantomJS (perhaps try it with the chrome launcher only) or chai plugins? Is the issue still there? I was the one that submitted the pr for this, and as far as I can tell, karma-jspm is in the clear.

rolandjitsu · 2016-07-13T15:36:54Z

My only karma plugins are:

{
    "karma-chrome-launcher": "^1.0.1",
    "karma-jasmine": "^1.0.2",
    "karma-jspm": "^2.2.0",
    "karma-sauce-launcher": "^1.0.0",
    "karma-spec-reporter": "^0.0.26"
}

It can be either of sauce, spec-reporter or jasmine. I will try to see if I remove them I still get the error.

rolandjitsu · 2016-07-13T16:03:46Z

I think there is still an issue with this plugin. I removed it and tried to run karma and it works without karma-jspm.

Actually none of the other plugins cause this kind of error message, it is only when I leave this plugin enabled that I get the error.

m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o · 2016-07-13T20:56:08Z

@rolandjitsu Thank you for the feedback. Upon further investigation, it does appear that the pr I submitted for this issue is accurate. However, I did identify a related bug inside Karma and submitted a pr to them accordingly. Knowing what I know now, I think it's safe to say that your issue is likely do to your file patterns amounting to duplicates, which (I speculate) is only present when you have karma-jspm on, since that's when those files get attached. But it's not karma-jspm's fault (even though it was initially triggering the symptom by including duplicate files) or yours, Karma should be able to handle that without issues. To verify if this is the case or not, please install my fork of Karma and see what happens. At the very least, you should see another error other than "You need to include some adapter that implements __karma__.start method!" and if that is the case, kindly post the new error!

@tamird Install my fork of Karma and let me know if you see anything different.

tamird · 2016-07-13T21:12:27Z

Tried it, and got:

karma start

m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o · 2016-07-13T21:23:25Z

@tamird You have to build the karma project, cd into its directory and do npm run build. If you have further issues on that end, just install Karma as you normally would from npm or something, and replace this line with if (other && byPath(other, p) < 0) return.

tamird · 2016-07-13T21:55:45Z

OK, I applied the patch locally and things worked (mostly):

Note the 404 warning which is a bit concerning.

m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o · 2016-07-14T02:37:11Z

@tamird Not sure why your setup is requesting system-polyfills.js instead of system-polyfills.src.js, but either way, it might be an unrelated configuration issue, see #91. If you still can't figure it out after reading that, open up another issue. Best of luck!

tamird · 2016-07-15T19:04:52Z

@m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o indeed, that warning is emitted even in the earlier version of karma, so that's unrelated. In any case, your patch upstream fixes karma 1.1.1 for me.

rolandjitsu · 2016-07-16T10:44:52Z

@m-a-r-c-e-l-i-n-o I still think this issue should still be opened. As I stated before, once I enable karma-jspm, I still get:

16 07 2016 12:35:21.399:INFO [karma]: Karma v1.1.1 server started at http://localhost:9876/

Chrome 52.0.2743 (Mac OS X 10.11.5): Executed 0 of 0 ERROR (0.041 secs / 0 secs)

And I have checked that none of the other plugins I use cause this. As for duplicate files, I do not have any, I barely have 3 files.
