npm install fails with iojs v1.0.1 #141

ralphtheninja · 2015-01-15T20:47:25Z

I'm having problems building node-leveldown with node-gyp. Any suggestions? Please excuse me if this has already been reported.

lms@ux31a|21:44|~/src/node-leveldown (nan-1.5) $ node -v
v1.0.1
lms@ux31a|21:46|~/src/node-leveldown (nan-1.5) $ iojs -v
v1.0.1
lms@ux31a|21:46|~/src/node-leveldown (nan-1.5) $ npm -v
2.1.18

lms@ux31a|21:44|~/src/node-leveldown (nan-1.5) $ npm i

Aha, this is most likely the exact problem as nodejs/node#433

ralphtheninja · 2015-01-15T21:05:51Z

My npm-debug.log is mega sized so can't paste it here. I have a copy of it and can mail it if it's required.

Ok, so after some investigation I've come to the conclusion that node-gyp is trying to download files based on nodejs.org which is set here:

https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp/blob/4ceed113a800378e78435a42632fd035413c99b2/lib/install.js#L42

You can affect the base url by using --disturl options:

$ node-gyp rebuild --disturl=https://iojs.org/dist

gyp ERR! node-gyp -v v1.0.1

But then we run into problems because the following line assumes node and also .tar.gz and not .tar.xz which afaik is the format for iojs:

https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp/blob/4ceed113a800378e78435a42632fd035413c99b2/lib/install.js#L188

I guess after this it feels more of an issue that should be posted on node-gyp.

nodejs/node#456

ralphtheninja · 2015-01-16T00:07:27Z

Ignore the part with .tar.gz and .tar.xz. The latter is only used on iojs.org for smaller file size. The .tar.gz is also available so this is not an issue for node-gyp

ralphtheninja · 2015-01-16T00:43:03Z

Ok with some npmlinking help from @rvagg I now pass the install step but get an error which is related to the nan module

#139 was just merged, [email protected] + [email protected] should be 💘

rvagg · 2015-01-16T01:18:38Z

also, don't use node-gyp to do manual compiles, use the one bundled with io.js releases, the changes haven't been upstreamed yet: /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp or something similar. You can extract / npm link that if you want a global but that version of npm will use it by default.

ralphtheninja · 2015-01-16T15:58:09Z

Ok just going to summarize what I had to do in case anyone else reads this. YMMV.

npm link in /usr/local/lib/iojs-v1.0.2-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp
npm link node-gyp in node-leveldown folder
npm install in node-leveldown did not work -> Had to do node-gyp rebuild manually. This step is only a problem the first time node-gyp downloads from iojs.org, i.e. subsequent npm i works.

Maybe these places need to replace.
