Forge tunnel crashes when using an external libraries

Forge

Hi,

I’m developing a Custom UI app and I recently encountered an issue.
Seems like forge tunnel doesn’t work when the runtime snapshot is true. I’m getting the below error:

=== Snapshotting functions...

This happened when I tried to import an external library (jwt-simple or atlassian-jwt) in the Forge part of the application.

I’m using node 16.13.2 and @forge/cli 4.1.0.

When deploying the app (with snapshot true) it’s working as expected.
When setting the snapshot to ‘false’ and working with a tunnel, it’s also working as expected.

Seems like the issue is only with the tunnel.

I saw this issue reported a month ago: 10 Feb 2022 - Forge CLI version 3.0.0 - #9 by OnucheIdoko1

We use atlassian-jwt in our project actually.

3

And you are able to use the tunnel with snapshot set to true?

4

Actually, the default is for snapshot true.

I had to set it to false for tunnel to work.

5

That’s exactly what’s happening in my case…
For some reason, it’s not working anymore when the snapshot is set to true.

6

Yes true.

May be some Atlassian guys can give us some tips here.

7

It’s been a week already and no response.
I really hope that someone from Atlassian will answer here…

I found that snapshotting does not work when certain third-party libraries are included. In particular, libs that reference the “crypto” builtins seem to cause problems.

Seeing the same issue here when incorporating typescript into our Forge app code. Turning snapshot off allows us to run in the tunnel but it’s not clear to me what we are sacrificing by doing that.

10

If the snapshot is set to false, with tunneling you need to do npm run build for your changes to reflect.

With snapshot true, your custom UI changes reflect automatically when tunneling.

11

ouch - thats unfortunate. thanks for the info @OnucheIdoko1

12

It’s strange that no one from Atlassian replied here so far…
Looks like something that needs to be addressed.

Hi @amityahav, I sincerely apologise in the delay in reaching out in this thread.

We are unfortunately aware of the issue while tunnelling with snapshotting. We believe that this is the result of the snapshot size being sent, exceeding the configured Isolate limits that we use and causing the tunnel to crash.

We are currently investigating increasing the isolate memory limits, which our current testing indicates fixes this issue. This will hopefully be included in the next release of the CLI.

In the meantime, as @OnucheIdoko1 mentioned, a solution to getting the tunnel to work is to disable snapshotting while tunnelling, then re-enabling it before you deploy your app.

Again, apologies for the delay in reaching out. We are aiming to have this resolved as soon as possible.

I will keep everyone updated on the progress on the fix and when developers can expect it to be released.

Thanks

Thanks, @MatthewFreeman.

I hope it will be resolved soon.

Hello Team,

I realise it’s been a while since this was updated, but we have a public facing bug report for this issue in

The workaround for now is to turn off snapshots by following the documentation in

Regards,
James.

I have removed “crypto” and added jssha instead, and it started to work.
