Summary

asdf_data_dir function inits ASDF_DATA_DIR with HOME when value is empty.
HOME may replace to empty string when asdf shims called by non-shell program.
this makes invalid value of ASDF_DATA_DIR.

the PR fixes this issue by use asdf_dir function instead of call environment variable.

Other Information

I faced this issue when using hugo which installed by nklmilojevic/asdf-hugo and nodejs which installed by asdf-vm/asdf-nodejs like this:

$ hugo server
Start building sites … 
hugo v0.91.2-1798BD3F linux/amd64 BuildDate=2021-12-23T15:33:34Z VendorInfo=gohugoio
Error: Error building site: POSTCSS: failed to transform "style/style.css" (text/css): unknown command: npx. Perhaps you have to reshim?
Built in 87 ms

I looked into it by edit $ASDF_DIR/bin/asdf shebang as #!/usr/bin/env -S bash -x.

My hugo site using PostCSS integration and hugo call npx (in my environment, this places as asdf shims) when build the site by this code. it seems no using sub shell and directly exec npx. this will drop environment variables.
