build error when run scripts/build_js.js

Support Question

Hi, I'm trying to run scripts/build_js.js. But it hit the error 'boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp' file not found. I already run node scripts/install_tools.js, so I cannot figure out what missed. Would you please help me how to resolve this?

Follow up

I've resolved this by installing boost with another guide from google result.

But then I hit another error.

You should not be running build.js directly. Run yarn to install dependencies, then yarn setup and yarn build to setup and build.

The same. It will finally run node build_js.js

@shinnqy We can't debug your setup with screenshots. This isn't an issue with the project - CI runs the build just fine e.g. - even if it were, the bar for "Issues" is reproducibility, in your case, a GitHub repo which fails to build would work.

If I had to guess, it looks like you may have the wrong emscripten version installed. The build process will use the one in your environment rather than installing its own if it is detected.

Re: boost and the install_tools script, this is only configured to run on Linux systems (and your font looks like Menlo). We can take this out now I think but this script does the same thing as brew.
