node-gyp rebuild failing for integer

[MattIPv4]

Hi there,

When attempting to install better-sqlite3 on macOS Catalina (10.15), it fails due to integer error-ing during the node-gyp rebuild process.

Whilst I would assume therefor that node-gyp or integer would be the best places to get help, I was wondering if anyone here had any ideas or if this dependency could be replaced with something that doesn't require node-gyp.

npm i better-sqlite3

> integer@2.1.0 install /Users/mattcowley/Downloads/test/node_modules/integer
> node-gyp rebuild

so im not sure if its the operating system. every time i reload.. and load up my projects on mac/windows i run into this problem..

so I do a npm I on both Int and gyp. sometimes it goes thru.. If not i delete my node modules folder. I download everything else 1st then last I download bettersqlite3 then afterwards i run the rebuild script.

let me know if this helps.. as im on 10.14

Let me know it this fixes it, run before install: npm i -g node-gyp@latest

[JoshuaWise]

This should be fixed in the latest version of better-sqlite3 (v6.0.1).

I am still having this issue.

npm ERR! integer@2.1.0 install: node-gyp rebuild``

@merc1er Upgrade to version 7.0.1. This issue is definitely fixed in the newest version (I was wrong about it being fixed in v6.0.1).
