[QUESTION] `npm i grpc` failed

[poppinlp]

I have run npm i grpc which goes to compile from source code on my PC. But the compilation failed after some minutes with this error message:

node-pre-gyp ERR! Tried to download(undefined): https://storage.googleapis.com/grpc-precompiled-binaries/node/grpc/v1.8.0/node-v57-darwin-x64-unknown.tar.gz
node-pre-gyp ERR! Pre-built binaries not found for grpc@1.8.0 and node@8.9.3 (node-v57 ABI, unknown) (falling back to source compile with node-gyp)

I'm not sure what's going on here. So what shoud i do to install grpc successfully?

ENV:
OS mac 10.13.2
node 8.9.3
npm 5.5.1
already have python=/usr/local/bin/python2.7 in .npmrc

[murgatroid99]

I have published a new release at version 1.8.4. Can you try installing that and see if it fixes the problem?

[poppinlp]

@murgatroid99 Thanks for you reply.
I have tried to trigger not download from remote to compile from source. But seems it's still there and i got this error message:

node-pre-gyp ERR! Tried to download(undefined): https://storage.googleapis.com/grpc-precompiled-binaries/node/grpc/v1.8.4/node-v57-darwin-x64-unknown.tar.gz

My biggest question is why I'm getting a 403 at all. Should't I be getting a 404 if it doesn't exist or a 200 if it does? Is the compiler not going to the website correctly?

Edit: I've taken a closer look into compiling grpc, one of the issues I found can happen is having a pre installed version of protobuf. However even when I removed protobuf completely I still wasn't able compile it. Another question I have is why this library can't use the grpc included in linux distros?

@tankerkiller125 this is a different issue, and the rootcause is the command you ran is missing the --disturl option. The proper command is:

npm install grpc --target=1.8.4 --runtime=electron --disturl=https://atom.io/download/electron

Basically, by omitting the disturl flag, you downloaded the nodejs 1.8.4 build headers instead of electron 1.8.4, and are trying to build against them. This is also polluting your node-gyp directory, so even if you add the --disturl it will not re-download the correct headers. You may want to set your HOME variable to someplace else when building for Electron to avoid collision of build files between NodeJS and Electron.

This issue is a mixed bag of various problems, and none of them should apply anymore anyway. Closing this one.
