Which Commit/Node Version To Use To Run Demo?

[jack-robson]

Hi. I've tried checking out a number of commits and a couple node versions but keep running into

I followed the instructions https://aries.js.org/guides/0.4/getting-started/set-up/indy-sdk/macos-arm numerous times. I have the missing libs installed, though I didn't have the /usr/local/lib/ folder. I created it but it's read only. I put it in /opt/homebrew/lib instead.

npx -p @aries-framework/node@^0.3 is-indy-installed

keeps going round in circles

jr@JRobson-UKMAC23 ~ % npx -p @aries-framework/node@^0.3 is-indy-installed
Need to install the following packages:
@aries-framework/node@0.3.3
Ok to proceed? (y)

Notice it's looking at a different developers location, I'm not sure how to change from '/Users/beri/developer/work/hyperledger/indy-sdk/libindy/target/release/deps/libindy.dylib' to '/opt/homebrew/lib/libindy.dylib'

Any help appreciated. Thank you 🙏

Regarding the first issue (404 downloading indy-vdr binaries), it has been fixed in @hyperledger/indy-vdr-nodejs 0.2.0-dev.5, so probably it will go away if you change the dependencies in demo/package.json (and maybe also in packages/indy-vdr/package.json). This will be hopefully fixed soon (it is already done in #1427).

However, you may still have a problem with that indy-sdk dlopen error. Maybe the original beri (@berendsliedrecht 😄) can tell us how to workaround this. This started to happen to me when I upgraded my Macbook Pro M1 to Sonoma (macOS 14.0). Maybe the pre-built binaries are not compatible anymore? Anyway, we expect to completely remove indy-sdk dependency in the repo for 0.5.0 so it is in the works.

Thank you for your patience!

[berendsliedrecht]

Sadly the indy-sdk does not use the new /opt/homebrew/* as a pattern for system dependencies. I believe there is an env var that can be used for this, but I believe the indy-sdk by default looks for /usr/lib and usr/local/lib. Maybe change the permissions of the /usr/local/lib? Can be done with chmod 755 /usr/local/lib, but double check that these are actually the correct permissions.

I tried todo this last night but it wanted me to boot into recovery mode. I tried to build the library again but it was failing on my M1.

Fortunately my team has some working examples so I will no longer be trying to get the demo to run. Hoping I don't run into this issue in the other examples. 🤞

Thanks for the help though 👍

[berendsliedrecht]

Oh that is interesting. We are quickly moving away from the indy-sdk and with the new shared components (indy-vdr, anoncreds-rs and aries-askar) these issues won't occur anymore.
