Error "attempt to index a nil value" in separate vis-window on fresh install and/or when "require('vis')" is present is visrc.lua

Hello, I'm running into an issue which appears on a fresh vis install on my MacBook Pro 2019

A second window automatically opens when opening vis, containing only attempt to index a nil value. There also doesn't appear to be any syntax highlighting or color of any sort.

I also can't use the vis lua module in my visrc.lua, which prevents me from doing any configuration.

I installed vis via homebrew using brew install vis
I ran vise to start the editor and saw this:

There's also no color or syntax highlighting

I ran touch ~/.config/vis/visrc.lua to create an empty config file in my config directory
- The ~/.config/vis directory wasn't created after installing - not sure if this is intentional
I found this made the error message disappear:

However, there's still no color or syntax highlighting
When I add require('vis') to ~/.config/vis/visrc.lua, the error reemerges:

I also am unable to configure vis using the vis module in visrc.lua
I created a simple config which should enable the number option on all windows
I exited vis and opened it again on visrc.lua, but the config was not applied:

The same behavior occurs when installing via brew install vis --HEAD
The same behavior occurs when building vis from source:

Strange, lua usually gives you a line number and file name for where such a thing has occurred. Can you post the output of echo $VIS_PATH and also from the lua prompt (run lua) the output of print(package.path); print(package.cpath).

Matthew Delaney · Answer 2 · Sat Oct 28 2023 05:30:03 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

VIS_PATH:

MB-Pro ~ % echo $VIS_PATH
[no output]

Lua:

MB-Pro ~ % lua

I attempted to manually set the VIS_PATH variable using the directory of the visrc.lua file included in the install directory: export VIS_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/vis/HEAD-18c72a1/share/vis
- I also double-checked to make sure I was still using the HEAD version of vis
This didn't appear to have any effect

I'll also note that adding random garbage to my visrc.lua file will cause vis to return a proper stack trace as expected:

Another note - I went into my install directory and commented everything out of vis.lua, and this prevented the error from appearing.

I then uncommented vis.lua and commented everything in vis-std.lua, but this time the error appears:

I haven't yet tried this with the other required modules.

Randy Palamar · Answer 4 · Sat Oct 28 2023 05:50:09 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I don't think its an error in those files themselves since everyone else would also run into them. I'm sorry but I don't know the full details of how brew is installing things but I do notice that you have static lpeg available. Can you try doing ./configure --enable-static-lpeg=no; make. Maybe there is an issue when lpeg is statically linked but lua isn't (I have a completely static vis and everything is working on my end).

The same error occurs.

I do think you're right though in terms of it being related to lpeg - I played around with commenting things out some more and found that the error happens when require('lpeg') is run.

Note re the above: I ran brew uninstall vis and explicitly set VIS_PATH to the lua directory in the vis repo on my machine to make sure it wasn't using lua files from anywhere else in my system.

Randy Palamar · Answer 7 · Sat Oct 28 2023 06:15:34 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

checking for static lpeg... yes
... -DCONFIG_LPEG=1 ...

Huh, maybe the configure script has some bug in that test. Can you manually set CONFIG_LPEG = 0 and clear the libs/cflags (CFLAGS_LPEG = and LDFLAGS_LPEG =) in config.mk.

Matthew Delaney · Answer 8 · Sat Oct 28 2023 06:47:09 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

That seems to have fixed the problem!

Edited config.mk (CFLAGS_LPEG was already clear):

MB-Pro vis % ./vis

Then ran ./vis on a couple files. No errors and color seems to work:

So to sum up, the reason I was running into this error was because my installation of lua can't use the static version of lpeg, which vis will try to use by default?

And it can be fixed by passing --enable-static-lpeg=no to configure when building vis, which makes it not use static lpeg (once that bug in the config script is fixed).

As for the homebrew package, I'll need to reach out to the maintainer of that package if I want vis to work when using brew install, correct?

Randy Palamar · Answer 9 · Sat Oct 28 2023 10:19:49 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Yes, there is likely a bug in the configure script that doesn't allow you to disable static lpeg if it is found. Additionally it is possible that if lpeg is statically linked into vis then lua must also be statically linked for it to be usable. That will need some more testing to confirm.

I'm adding the help-wanted tag since these should both be easy for someone else to fix/confirm if I don't get to it soon.

Matthew Delaney · Answer 10 · Wed Nov 01 2023 02:13:03 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I found out what the issue was with the configure script not disabling static lpeg - turned out to have been a simple typo in the command.

The argument should have been --enable-lpeg-static=no instead of --enable-static-lpeg=no

From configure:

146 --enable-lpeg-static|--enable-lpeg-static=yes) lpeg=yes ;;
147 --disable-lpeg-static|--enable-lpeg-static=no) lpeg=no ;;

And running ./configure with this corrected argument confirms it

Incorrect: ./configure --enable-static-lpeg=no

I am not sure I understand correctly: are you saying that this issue is in the end a PEBKAC and it could be closed?

Matthew Delaney · Answer 12 · Sun Dec 03 2023 05:49:24 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Not quite, the primary issue is that using static lpeg on my machine causes the error I described in my original post.

The “help-wanted” tag was added so that someone could check if this happens when trying to use static lpeg when lua is not statically linked.

Randy Palamar · Answer 13 · Sun Dec 03 2023 07:22:12 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

The “help-wanted” tag was added so that someone could check if this happens when trying to use static lpeg when lua is not statically linked.

I just tried this and it works fine. You just need to make sure that lpeg was built against the same version of lua that you are linking against vis. Doing this defeats the purpose of a static library but this isn't vis' problem.

Matthew Delaney · Answer 14 · Tue Dec 05 2023 05:31:32 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Ok, sounds good. Thank you for your help.

For anyone else running into the same issue, I was able to workaround it in homebrew using the following procedure:

Run brew install vis to make sure vis is installed via homebrew
Run brew edit vis to pull up the formula in your current $EDITOR
Make the following edit to line 31 (as of 2023-12-04):
Before: system "./configure", "--prefix=#{prefix}", "--enable-lua"
After: system "./configure", "--prefix=#{prefix}", "--enable-lua", "--enable-lpeg-static=no"
Save your changes
Run export HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 to ensure brew uses the edited formula.
Run brew reinstall -s vis to reinstall vis, building it from source and applying the new ./configure option

I thought I could submit a PR to add an option to the formula to disable static lpeg, but options aren't allowed in homebrew-core formulas: https://docs.brew.sh/Formula-Cookbook#adding-optional-steps

It would have to be a change to the default ./configure options. Unless everyone installing vis using brew is encountering this issue, that would probably do more harm than good.

Nicolas Paul · Answer 15 · Sat Dec 09 2023 04:10:19 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Seems to work when building from source by just running ./configure --enable-lpeg-static=no && make. Maybe the two others flags present by default within the Brew formula are broken?

Matthew Delaney · Answer 16 · Sat Dec 16 2023 11:48:12 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I don't think so - on my system, the only thing that matters is whether the --enable-lpeg-static=no flag is passed to configure. Running ./configure by itself causes the error to appear for me, when building from source.
