How can i disable the call self as node binary?

[viceice]

I'm building some tooling which needs to call the native system node. but intead pkg is trying to execute the current binary as node.

Is there any hint where to patch so this is disabled? I would also like to disable PKG_EXECPATH on child env as i also need to call the binary again with other parameters.

So my tool is some kind of a multicall binary.

I run commands like containerbase-cli df ... or containerbase-cli it.
if the binary is symlinked to install-tool then it will internally run containerbase-cli it.

Try checking prelude/bootstrap, if not there it may be something related to nodejs patches

i see. so it's maybe simply enough to disable the child_process patching?

It seems so: https://github.com/yao-pkg/pkg/blob/main/prelude/bootstrap.js#L2059

seems to work, thanks
