I'm still using node 14 because jest tests are not working with the 16. Is there a reason for upgrading to node 16, besides the doc recommending to do so?

According to this doc it's recommended to use sfdx with the "active lts" node version, which is the 16 at the moment.

node14 is fine

Also facing the issue when linking a plugin :(

AllanOricil · 2022-08-12T19:41:42Z

@DougMidgley how are u linking a plugin? And which plugin is it?

DougMidgley · 2022-08-13T10:51:23Z

@AllanOricil Its a custom plugin (not published as is private, so its not installing, but linking) below is the the sample. Note: the plugin works perfectly fine, just with this error which causes some concern to users.

Interestingly, this only happens when linking on the Azure DevOps Linux machine, when doing locally with Windows, no errors show

mshanemc · 2023-02-13T15:50:47Z

we've changed the code for plugins:link
oclif/plugin-plugins#517

You should see linked plugins compile themselves now, which I think was maybe at the root of some of this thread. As always, if you've got something still broken that's reproducible, please open a new issue.
