Cannot install Speaker node-gyp

[imorvai]

Hello,

I tried to install speaker, but I cannot because of the following issues:

`C:>node -v
v10.1.0

C:>npm -v
6.1.0

C:\poc>npm install speaker --save

speaker@0.4.1 install C:\poc\node_modules\speaker
node-gyp rebuild

C:\poc\node_modules\speaker>if not defined npm_config_node_gyp (node "C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\npm\node_modules\npm-lifecycle\node-gyp-bin\....\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild ) else (node "node C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild )
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:573
throw err;
^

Have you tried to execute the following command before installing node-gyp with administrator privileges?
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

That worked for me.

Perhaps this undocumented dependency should be added to the documentation?
