Issue

  • The globalThis.process?.argv object contains an array set in DXP 7.3, but in the latest release 2024.Q2.6, this is null or undefined. 

Environment

  • Liferay DXP [all versions]

Resolution

  • In this scenario, Liferay can't do much about this since that globalThis.process?.argv was an array in DXP 7.3 is an implementation detail, not a DXP official API, so users may proceed as per their convenience here.  
  • Moreover, if anyone wants to work on this, they can try the following:
    • Please evaluate this at their end to fix it in their code, where it is read. 
    • Inject JS code by any of the blessed methods (themes, CXs, TopHeadDynamicInclude, etc.) provided by DXP that sets that value to an array. 

NOTE: The following resolution requires customization and should only be implemented at the discretion of your team. Liferay Support will not be able to assist with designing or implementing customizations.
