/Users/alex/.node-gyp/6.11.5/include/node/common.gypi check out MacOS dev environment in this file

[alexventuraio]

@yerassyl94 thx, it solved the problem!

[psmyrdek]

Let's mention that it's about bumping macOS version like in your PR to i.e. 10.9
'MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET': '10.9', # -mmacosx-version-min=10.9

@yerassyl94 could you explain what's the root cause here?

[alexventuraio]

Related to #1564

[refack]

FTR, possible workaround:

For users:

env CXXFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.9" npm install

For addon authors:

add this to your bindings.gyp (but as mentioned above test)

  'xcode_settings': {
    'MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET': '10.9',
  },

[yurishkuro]

with CXXFLAGS only it didn't work for me on macOs 10.15.1, but this worked (per #1564 (comment)):

CXXFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.9" LDFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.9" npm i
