Summary: It seems that #2518 was being caused because `fs.writeFileSync` ocasionally failed and ended up writing an empty config.json file, effectively blowing away your N1 settings. The most common cause of failure for `writeFileSync` seems to be EBUSY error on win32, according to Sentry. The reason as to why EBUSY is happening so frequently on win32 is still unclear. This commit: - Adds an `atomicWriteFileSync` helper which writes to a temporary file first, and then renames the file. If writing to the temp file fails, we wont blow away our actual config.json. Also, renaming seems to be atomic across all platforms. - Adds more robust error handling and messaging to both loading and writing the file, and report them to Sentry - Automatically retries saving the file 3 times before telling the user. - Fixes https://sentry.nylas.com/sentry/edgehill/group/43112/ Test Plan: Manual Reviewers: evan, bengotow Reviewed By: bengotow Differential Revision: https://phab.nylas.com/D3245 |
