Error with build, missing binary?

[johnpetersjr]

Tried to download and install this today, got this error message:

Error output:

I'm guessing some binary is missing from S3?

Hi, sorry for the delay, I didn't receive any notification from github about this issue 🤔.
Anyway, you are trying to clone the repo and build the project on your own or you are trying to install the executable file on Windows ?

I need more information to understand what is going wrong here...

[johnpetersjr]

Here is the output from npm install - sanitized a little for folder names, etc. Maybe you can see what is going wrong... I'm running this on MacOS 10.13.6 , npm version 6.13.6

I just attempted to clone and build on Mac OS 10.14.6, npm 6.11.3, node v12.12.0, and ran into similar npm install issues. Seems like a great tool any help getting it up and running would be much appreciated.

[ulver2812]

Hi, the problem is related to fsevents as you can see here:

fsevents/fsevents#181

The solution is to use the latest version of fsevents, you can do this by cloning the repo, add this dependency in the package.json

"fsevents": "^2.1.2"

and then run

npm i

An alternative is to clone the repo and run the following commands sequentially:

npm i fsevents@latest
npm i

This should solve the issue, let me know if it's all ok.

[nathanielrindlaub]

Thanks @ulver2812, that got me a little closer. Npm install still failed for me after the fsevents update, and it seemed to be related to an old version node-gyp that was requested by angular-devkit/build-angular. I unpinned the angular-devkit/build angular to pull the latest version, reinstalled all the dependencies, and that worked without throwing errors.

However, when I tried

npm run electron:local

I got different errors, seemingly related to angular-cli:

Schema validation failed with the following errors:
  Data path ".builders['app-shell']" should have required property 'class'.

Hi @nathanielrindlaub , I have tried the solution posted above on:

• macOS 10.14.3
• Node v 10.11.0
• Npm v 6.4.1

Following those steps:

• Clone the repo
• Run:

npm i fsevents@latest
npm i
npm run electron:local

And didn't get any error, can you confirm that you have followed the above steps in a newly cloned repo ?

Take a look at the screen.

[johnpetersjr]

npm i fsevents@latest
npm i
npm run electron:local

I followed the above steps, and it is working for me now. Thank you!

npm 6.13.6
node 11.14.0
macOs 10.13.6

Not sure if I should close this issue/question since you have another customer still pending?

[ulver2812]

@johnpetersjr , it's better to wait the @nathanielrindlaub response. If it's all ok I can commit a fix and close the issue.

[nathanielrindlaub]

Hey @ulver2812 - followed your steps and got the following error on the last npm install step:

I think the issue maybe occurs when you're trying to run later versions of node (I'm on 12.12.0 and it appears you guys are on 10.x and 11.x). If you upgrade node, does the npm install still work for you?

[ulver2812]

@nathanielrindlaub , I'm sorry but I can't try to use different version of node now.
You can try on your own by using nvm:
https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm

Similar issue here: nodejs/node-gyp#1941

I'm pretty sure that there's an incompatibility with node 12, unfortunately I'm to busy now, I can't update the project, but the solution to build the app on your own is pretty easy, use nvm to switch temporarily on node 11.

Let me know if it works so I can close the issue, thanks.
