Out of the blue k6 is throwing panic

Grafana k6 OSS Support
1

We use k6 very heavily in our workflow and run tests every few hours. Out of the blue all our builds are failing in the last 2 hours and we are getting this error. This is not easy to debug as it’s not coming from our code. Even the simplest of script is throwing this panic error. There is no code change in our side and we are wondering if you’re aware of this issue.

Which version of k6 are you using and what’s your OS?

3

I was using k6 ( 31) and upgraded ( 32 ) locally. I am seeing this issue on both versions. Our CI builds uses K6 ( 31 ). I am using MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.5 locally. @ned

Judging from that part of the panic, it it some sort of a problem with the cdnjs loader. Please share which libraries from cdnjs you import, so we may try to reproduce the problem. And until it’s fixed, I suggest downloading them and importing them locally instead of directly from cdnjs.

import moment from "cdnjs.com/libraries/moment.js/2.18.1";
import faker from "cdnjs.com/libraries/Faker";
import { URL } from "https://jslib.k6.io/url/1.0.0/index.js";
6

import faker from "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Marak/faker.js/e0a928f53aa2e83965bcf9400aac1ea9f1e7eb7e/dist/faker.min.js";
We are trying out this import and it seems to work.

I created an issue about this: panic when importing modules from cdnjs · Issue #2037 · grafana/k6 · GitHub

It actually seems like the faker library was deleted from cdnjs or something like that, moment.js seems to work fine :confused: :man_shrugging: In any case, k6 definitely shouldn’t panic.
