From the README if you are running 64-bit nodejs version 12.x or 14.x on Linux, OS X, or Windows (7 or later) then you should be able to install fibers from npm just fine.
I checked my node version is v12.15.0 and my machine is mac os which should run npm install

when I changed the node tov6.10.2, there is no such error. but I need upgrade node version to v12.15.0 or higher version now, When I run same command npm install, I see the above error, What I need do for node v12.15.0 to reslove this issue?

upgrade fibers

[GuyChatfield]

i am seeing the same for the latest fibers version, (5.0.0) with node 12.16.3. the post install script seems to be from fibers@3.1.1 despite installing 5.0.0?

[gavmck]

Just piping in to say I installed fibers 5.0.0 on node 14.6.0 and now everything works great again. Thanks!

[advancedsoftwarecanada]

Thank you! This took forever to figure out. Working on the exact same versions as gavmck above.

[advancedsoftwarecanada]

Ugh annoying. Going to start removing fibers.

nvm install 16
nvm use 16
npm install fibers

Works as of 6/18/2024

@advancedsoftwarecanada fibers has been obsolete for 4 years [e2a0ed9] and entirely unsupported for 3 years [8f28098].

But, was absolutely amazing and a true shame for the community to lose :)

And only responding because the throught of this project brings a smile to my face -- truly what JS / Node should have been :)

[laverdet]

Yeah I'm definitely proud of what I built! Happy to be "prior art" in the history book. async/await was definitely the right choice for JS. With fibers you can have hundreds of pending stack. With async/await you can have millions
