CitizenFX Node Rebuild

This package is based on electron-rebuild.

This executable is rebuilding the native NodeJS modules you are using inside your FXServer resource against the NodeJS version that is used by the FXServer.

How does it work?

Install the @citizenfx/node-rebuild as a dev dependency with --save-dev:

npm install --save-dev @citizenfx/node-rebuild

Then, whenever you install a new package inside your FXServer resource, rerun node-rebuild:

$(npm bin)/node-rebuild

Or if you're on Windows:

.\node_modules\.bin\node-rebuild.cmd

The same works inside a script in your package.json:

"scripts": {
  "rebuild": "node-rebuild -f"
}

and then

npm run rebuild

What are the requirements?

Node v22.6.0 or higher is required. Building native modules from source uses node-gyp, refer to the link for its installation/runtime requirements.

What if the NodeJS version changed inside the FXServer?

The node-rebuild can be manually adjusted to rebuild against the NodeJS version that is required by providing the version as a cli argument.

node-rebuild --nodeVersion 22.6.0
