Cannot install realm-object-server

[nojvek]

Spent two hours trying to install ros.

Upgraded node version, uninstalled node-gyp and node-pre-gyp.

sudo npm install -g realm-object-server
/usr/bin/ros -> /usr/lib/node_modules/realm-object-server/dist/cli.js

> realm@1.12.0 install /usr/lib/node_modules/realm-object-server/node_modules/realm-one/node_modules/realm
> node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build

Its a mystery why 8.9.4 doesn't have a prebuilt version. It's a LTS version. Or why ros can't just build itself. I checked permissions and they are all fine too.

Haaaaaaalp!

@nojvek We have deprecated the Developer Edition, so I would propose you try out Cloud (https://cloud.realm.io) instead. That works instantly :-)

Tried to figure cloud.realm.io out, but didn't quite work. I wish it was as simple as setting up mysql-server with a simple apt-get install or connecting it to some url and port, but I've spent way too many hours battling realm-object-server so I guess I'll use something less painful.
