Unable to make the build of GDevelop

How do I...?
#1

I am unable to make the build of GDevelop. When I try to do npm run build I get below error

` Failed to execute ‘/usr/local/bin/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/bin/node-gyp.js build --fallback-to-build --module=/Users/ravikapuriya/Documents/GDevelop-ide-test/GDevelop/newIDE/electron-app/app/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding/Release/electron-v8.2-darwin-x64/fse.node --module_name=fse --module_path=/Users/ravikapuriya/Documents/GDevelop-ide-test/GDevelop/newIDE/electron-app/app/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding/Release/electron-v8.2-darwin-x64 --napi_version=4 --node_abi_napi=napi’ (1)

If you can’t understand this output you are probably not experienced enough to use the development version, you should use the prebuilt binaries.

The error looks simple here: you don’t have prebuilt binaries for your node version for fsevents and you don’t have the tools to build it manually. Either use the latest LTS version of node or install the native module build toolchain

#3

Thanks for the replay. Sorry for this.
I have already Node V12.8.3 LTS. But even though I am getting the same issue. I have also updated all the packages to the latest version.
Anything I am missing? Or anything more details you want let me know.

Before this I was using GDevelop v5.0.0-beta88 version and everything was working fine and few days back, I updated to the latest GDevelop v5.0.0-beta98, after that I am getting this issues.

#4

Again use the prebuilt release binaries don’t build them yourself.

The log says you are using node V10. You will need to install a node modules compiler toolchain and build the module manually. See node-gyp documentation

#5

After updating the Node version to latest LTS 12.8 & also installed node modules compiler toolchain. I am getting this error, when I am trying to install the npm inside GDevelop/newIDE/app/ folder

npm ERR! code E404

Also getting this error as well for the all the dependencies.

@arthuro555 Can you please help on this. I am stuck on this from long.

Hi @arthuro555, I am able to solve all the above errors by updating the npm version to the latest LTS 12.8. Also I am able to run the app through the npm run electron-mac command.After that through the deploy command I am able to generate a build. But when I am try to run the generated build of Mac, I am getting the error as below,

Uncaught Exception:

Error: Cannot find module ‘discord-rich-presence’

Please help me in solving this. Thanks in advance.

In newIDE/electron/app
Install the packages with yarn or npm.

@Bouh Thanks for the reply.
I already did that. npm install discord-rich-presence -g --verbose. Then I rebuild it, again getting the same error.
