install error

[annyiahgardner]

I tried installing it with NPM, but I keep getting this error.
C:\Users\annyi>npm install -g miraclx/freyr-js

The installation method requires git to be installed.
Git is what pulls all the code onto your device.
NPM thereafter, just installs it.
Please install git and try again.

[miraclx]

First, verify you have all of freyr's dependencies satisfied, including the version numbers https://github.com/miraclx/freyr-js#requirements

Example: python >= v3.2 means it needs python installed with a version no lesser than 3.2

Please report what version of python you have installed.

[annyiahgardner]

Python 3.9.2

[miraclx]

Confirm that binary is available on your PATH.
That is, can you run

C:\Users\annyi>python --version

[miraclx]

It's likely you have python installed locally and is not globally accessible in the sense I mentioned above.

Show a snippet of how you check the version, to be sure.

[annyiahgardner]

When I run it, I don't see anything about PATH.
C:\Users\annyi>python --version
Python 3.9.2

[annyiahgardner]

Node.js v14.16.0
ffmpeg version 2021-01-27-git-149bfc2445
AtomicParsley version: 20210124.204813.0

[miraclx]

Got it! I'm investigating this.

This seems to be an issue with a direct dependency itself przemyslawpluta/node-youtube-dl#358

[miraclx]

node-youtube-dl, the dependency causing issues introduced a broken commit 102de70 that validates the python version before installing itself. Either the assertion or tool used was broken. I've fixed this by locking the version on the last tested version 3.4.0.

You should be good now, retry npm install -g miraclx/freyr-js.

I've tested it and it works as expected here.

I'll add a lockfile to the repo to fix issues like these, or if you're amenable, contributions are welcome!
