Fiddle can't find NodeJS and npm about fiddle HOT 6 CLOSED

Thank you for reporting, this is interesting! I'm wondering how we could convince your machine to find npm.

Could you do me a favor and try the following?

1. Open fiddle
2. Open the developer tools (Help - Show developer tools)
3. In the console, enter the following: require('child_process').execSync('which npm').toString(). Let me know what the output is! It likely won't find npm, but we should cover that first.
4. Then, let's see what we can and cannot find: require('child_process').execSync('echo $PATH').toString()
5. Lastly, in a terminal, enter which npm and let me know where it lives.

Thanks!

My fixed steps

1. Open fiddle
2. Open the developer tools (Help - Toggle developer tools)
3. Excute following code in developer-tools console to find the current shell,
   require('child_process').execSync('echo $SHELL').toString()
4. Get npm path at you System terminal
   which npm
5. Config npm path enviroment for the shell at step 3; eg: zsh shell is .zshrc;
6. Restart the fiddle
