My markings are not working (pgfkeys : key '/tikz/marking' unkown)

Question

So I am trying to draw barred arrow in tikzcd, and following the answer of for example here :https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/493140/236919 . It does not work because of marking. The other (much more complicated) solutions work for my problem

The minimal code is :

\documentclass{article}
\listfiles
\usepackage{tikz-cd}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzcd}[]
    a \arrow[r,"|" marking] & b
\end{tikzcd}
\end{document}

The expected result is : https://i.stack.imgur.com/ISB5L.png

Using pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.18, I have the following warning :

! Package pgfkeys Error: I do not know the key '/tikz/marking' and I am going to ignore it. Perhaps you misspelled it.

See the pgfkeys package documentation for explanation. Type H for immediate help ... l.5 I think the culprit is a tikzcd arrow in cell 1-1. \errmessage ...currentrow -\tikzcd@currentcolumn } l.6 \end{tikzcd} ]

? H This error message was generated by an \errmessage command, so I can't give any explicit help. Pretend that you're Hercule Poirot: Examine all clues, and deduce the truth by order and method.

?

and the pdf produced is as follows:

the arrow is drawn, but the marking is ignored, thus the bar "|" is treated as a label and drawn above.

Could there be an issue with my pgfkeys package? I don't remember manually installing it, or how I installed latex/pdftex/..., but for what it's worth, I installed latex along TeXstudio 2.12.6 (hg 6631:16db084dae24)

Edit : after adding \listfiles to have the versions of my packages, here is a pastebin of the full log file :

Answer 1

Your code works perfectly with a recent version of TeX Live (since 2018 on).

In case you can't update your distribution, you can adjust the position of the | with other options: shift, yshift, xshift, rotate, as appropriate.

For example, here I've used yshift:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz-cd}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzcd}
    a \arrow[r,"|" yshift={-6pt}] & b
\end{tikzcd}
\end{document}
