sniprun: Process failed to start

Describe the bug I’ve installed the plugin using Packer and had it run install.sh just as the documentation said but whenever I try and execute any piece of code using SnipRun, the following error occurrs.

What do the bug concerns? SnipRun itself, a particular interpreter? The bug seems to stem from SnipRun itself as far as I can tell.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Install SnipRun
Execute some Rust code

Expected behavior Expected execution of the code snipped tried.

Wonderful, i’ll leave a note up in the doc so future users can avoid so much trouble

Thank you for the patient debugging, I hope the experience will be better from now on (though, sniprun has its set off limitations😅), and feel free to close this issue

Amazing catch, bash ./install.sh failed to compile SnipRun, now I got what went wrong.

For anyone facing this problem in the future: If you only have nixpkgs.rustc and nixpkgs.cargo installed in a dev-shell on a per-project basis rather than having it installed system wide, the script won’t be able to build the bin. Run the script from a dev-shell that has the required packages or install the packages system wide, I tried both just now and both worked.

@michaelb Btw sir, awesome plugin!
