Similar problems with Sing 3.1.1

Read other issues and tried several things (like downgrading npm), but no success. Help is highly appreciated!

@redrowthueswar @mroeling You guys clearly don't know how does markdown for code works.

[kyle-hall]

@brianmcd There are several install issues besides this one open and without comment from you or anyone from the project that are actually trying to help. Do you have any idea about what could be going on with your project and these node-gyp errors? From the looks of all of these issues, it isn't tied to any OS or version of node/npm. Please respond. To be clear, I'm not demanding you swoop in and fix everything. I am just asking for a response and some discussion about what you think could be causing these issues. Thank you.

[brianmcd]

@kyle-hall It looks like the module is broken on node 6 (not sure if it's all versions, I only tried the latest). Updating nan to 2.4.0 gets it down to only warnings. I'd merge a PR that fixed the warnings, if you or anyone else is up for it.

[kyle-hall]

@brianmcd Great, thanks. Does that mean you're doing a new release with the updated version of nan? Or should we change that ourselves locally?

I did try downgrading to Node 4.6, and my errors went away. But, I also reinstalled the .NET framework and Visual Build Tools, as well, which may have helped. I'm not sure if Node 4 will solve all problems, however as this issue (#202) shows them having Node 4 and they still run into the issue.

[willmendesneto]

** Sharing here, since this issue still open.

I had the same problem and here is how I solved:

$ rm -rf node_modules
$ sudo npm install
$ npm start

For some cryptic reason, node-gyp requires something that's related to my sudo user. I'm investigating yet, but I'm sharing this here because this information could be useful for someone else.

Before that I did:

• How I'm using nvm to manage NodeJS versions (Currently I'm using versions 4.3.2, 5.7.0 and 6.7.0) I removed and installed again;
• How I notice that node-gyp uses tools like make, I updated my computer using brew update;
