Not installing on Windows #1050

Nitwel · 2021-09-29T23:05:26Z

First of all, awesome that you guys are making this tool open source! ❤️
Right now I would love to start testing out your software but there is no prebuild version yet and I'm having a hard time running it locally. I know that this is kinda harsh to say but could you guys give an estimate on when the next release containing a windows version will come out as I'm just so excited to check it out.

I've followed all your steps on how to install it on Windows but I get greeted with this error.

Looks like there might be an issue with the @ronomon\base64 package. Have you tried installing it ahead of time with npm install --ignore-scripts @ronomon/base64? That seems to be the method prescribed for Windows in the package README:

Nitwel · 2021-09-30T14:25:51Z

running yarn add --ignore-scripts @ronomon/base64 -W resolved it though now I'm running into

I am also facing the same issue as @Nitwel .

Moretti-Federico · 2021-11-17T09:36:01Z

Same issues for me

Moretti-Federico · 2021-11-17T10:18:36Z

If I start "just glass" or "just timeline" there are no errors but if I start "the whole chimichanga" the following errors are found:
VM66 module.js:543 Uncaught Error: Cannot find module '../build/Debug/nodegit.node'
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (VM66 module.js:543)

at Module._compile (VM66 module.js:642)
at Object.Module._extensions..js (VM66 module.js:653)

it appears that the following variable is not created:
var filename = Module._findPath(request, paths, isMain); if (!filename) { var err = new Error(Cannot find module '${request}'); err.code = 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND'; throw err; } return filename; };

I also faced the same issue. In order to re-install electron properly, run the following command from the root of the project directory:

$ node .\node_modules\electron\install.js

Have you been able to solve this issue? Im running into the same problem and im stuck

@Blendan1 I was having this issue on MacOS, maybe my fix works for you. If you check the package.json on packages/haiku-plumbing it seems the version of nodegit is "0.20.3" this was causing the same issue for me (don't remember why). I fixed it by uninstalling this version and installing the latest version of nodegit at that time which was "0.23.0". If you run today npm view nodegit versions you will see the "0.26.4" as the last stable version so that one might work too. To summarize:

cd packages/haiku-plumbing
npm uninstall nodegit (will remove the 0.20.3)
npm install nodegit (should install the latest stable). Check final version on the package.json file and if it's still throwing the error try npm install nodegit@0.23.0 (worked for me).

I also recommend you check out Rive which solved some problems Lottie was having and made it simple to create more complex animations with really good performance for multiple devices.
