npm install fails on linux without g++ installed #3744

That's kind of annoying but yea, we might need to do something like that. Compilers are a dependency for any binary npm module (which one of our dependencies depends on). Even contextify itself doesn't call out the need for g**. When you install node / npm via |

I used the recommended approach for Debian and Ubuntu based distributions . |
Rebuilding 'contextify' (deps from old 'jsdom') on Windows and even on Linux could be problematic (facebook#3744). Bump solves it because current version of jsdom do not use 'contextify' anymore and 'jest-cli'@0.5.x has dependecy on 'jsdom' without earlier mentioned plugin. But there is a restriction that new 'jest-cli' will be working only on iojs >= 2 so accepting that PR is totally up to you and your perferences.

The installation of build-essential is not 'optional'. It is a prerequisite for The instructions for the Debian-based installation should reflect that build-essential is a prerequisite. |

for installing g++ in fedora and other linux os use sudo yum install /usr/bin/g++ |
This builder image is being used inside fabric8-planner builds. Jenkins file https://github.com/fabric8-ui/fabric8-planner/blob/master/Jenkinsfile#L14 --> groovy script https://github.com/fabric8io/fabric8-pipeline-library/blob/master/vars/fabric8UITemplate.groovy#L9 --> https://hub.docker.com/r/fabric8/fabric8-ui-builder/tags/ and fabric8-planner builds are showing an error on console ``` make: Entering directory `/home/jenkins/workspace/8-ui_fabric8-planner_master-ZPP4IZOIOGZC2EHZQQ2O5PEN76546POVNRCE6JLDNBSQQFFN5RDA@2/node_modules/integer/build' CXX(target) Release/obj.target/integer/src/integer.o make: g++: Command not found make: *** [Release/obj.target/integer/src/integer.o] Error 127 make: Leaving directory `/home/jenkins/workspace/8-ui_fabric8-planner_master-ZPP4IZOIOGZC2EHZQQ2O5PEN76546POVNRCE6JLDNBSQQFFN5RDA@2/node_modules/integer/build' gyp ERR! build error gyp ERR! stack Error: `make` failed with exit code: 2 ``` So I feel that we are missing few packages and need to install them. Following are packages we need to run the build smoothly - groupinstall 'Development Tools' - gcc-c++" Ref: facebook/react#3744 (comment) https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/32439 Once merged I hope to see the changes in fabric8-cd whenever I use `container('ui')` in my Jenkins file

What about Mac? |
I have a fresh installation of Ubuntu 14.04 and installed compiled version of node.js 10.38.
npm installfailed onnode-gyp rebuildstep with error 'make: g++: Command not found'.apt-get install g++solves the problem. It make sense put g++ dependency into README.md Prerequisites section.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
