I even tried npm i nan on its own to no avail. Running on El Capitan.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

octalmage · 2015-10-26T09:49:48Z

Does the nan directory exist in the robotjs node_modules directory?

Qix- · 2015-10-26T16:41:16Z

No, it wouldn't; NPM@3 onward has flat module systems. That could be it. I'm not able to confirm since the build fails, thus robotjs doesn't appear in node_modules to begin with.

RainmanNoodles · 2015-10-26T17:41:42Z

FWIW, I'm also seeing the same issue, so it's not an isolated thing. (node 4.2.1/node-gyp 3.0.3/npm 3.3.9 on El Capitan)

octalmage · 2015-10-26T17:43:45Z

Alright, I know what needs to be done. I'll submit a PR.

octalmage · 2015-10-26T17:55:06Z

#117 should resolve this, could you try building RobotJS from the dynamic-nan-include branch?

Thanks!

RainmanNoodles · 2015-10-26T18:07:16Z

Using npm install git://github.com/octalmage/robotjs#dynamic-nan-include gives me this error:

Duplicate of Qix's error below, redacted to make the thread cleaner...

I saw this error before when I was running npm 2.x but I upgraded to 3.x and it changed to the nan.h error...

Qix- · 2015-10-26T18:08:21Z

Same thing here.

Hmm, must be an El Capitan thing. It builds for Node v4.2.1 for me without issue. I'll have to find a way to test and work on this, it may be a couple of days. Sorry!

jazzzz · 2015-10-27T12:43:25Z

#117 should resolve this, could you try building RobotJS from the dynamic-nan-include branch?

I had the same build error on Windows 10, it is fixed with the dynamic-nan-include branch!

octalmage · 2015-10-27T15:18:21Z

Awesome! I'll get it pushed out today with #114.

octalmage · 2015-10-27T23:35:27Z

I'm so curious what has changed here. Is it the compiler? I feel like it has to be. What version of Xcode are y'all running?

octalmage · 2015-10-27T23:39:28Z

It has to be gcc/g++, here's what I have:

$ gcc -v
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple LLVM version 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0
Thread model: posix
$ g++ -v
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple LLVM version 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0
Thread model: posix

What versions do y'all have?

SimulatedGREG · 2015-10-27T23:40:11Z

El Capitan 10.11.1 & Xcode 7.1 (7B91b)
xcode-select -v gives me version 2343, if that makes any difference

octalmage · 2015-10-27T23:52:18Z

@SimulatedGREG Could you check your gcc/g++ version?

Thanks a ton!

SimulatedGREG · 2015-10-27T23:57:45Z

This?

$ gcc -v
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple LLVM version 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0
Thread model: posix

octalmage · 2015-10-27T23:58:15Z

Yes thanks! And could you run g++ -v?

SimulatedGREG · 2015-10-27T23:59:02Z

Looks the same...

$ g++ -v
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple LLVM version 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0
Thread model: posix

octalmage · 2015-10-28T00:04:02Z

Hmm, I thought I was on to something. I'll set up an El Capitan VM now.

Qix- · 2015-10-28T00:12:45Z

Hmm, first thought is that you shouldn't be relying upon GNU's compilers on OSX, because they're usually symlinked to clang which can have different semantics. Should be looking at clang/clang++ instead of gcc/g++.

That being said:

$ clang -v
Apple LLVM version 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0
Thread model: posix

octalmage · 2015-10-28T00:14:54Z

Yeah I'm having a hard time imaging exactly what has changed. I don't want to update my main OS and not be able to work on RobotJS, so I'm trying to get a VM going.

octalmage · 2015-10-28T00:22:35Z

And why does Node.js v0.12.7 build? Does node-gyp use different build tools here? I'm looking into this now.

SimulatedGREG · 2015-10-28T00:26:00Z

That was my main question, how in the world does v0.12.7 work. Thanks for the fast responses by the way!

Now using system version of node: v0.12.7 (npm v2.11.3)
...
 $ npm install robotjs

This is why I suspect it's a Nan issue.

octalmage · 2015-10-28T00:35:53Z

Since the original issue has been resolved, I created #118 to address the El Capitan issue.

Thanks for the help guys!

octalmage · 2015-10-28T01:36:07Z

v0.3.2 published to npm which fixes this issue.
