Difficulties installing package from npm

[staltz]

When installing these neon npm modules, either your disk-utility or my ssb-neon-keys, both give an error upon npm install that looks like this:

➜ npm i

> disk-utility@0.0.2 install /home/staltz/oss/someproject/node_modules/disk-utility
> node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build=false || neon build --release

sh: 1: node-pre-gyp: not found
neon ERR! Command failed: cargo metadata --format-version=1 --no-deps
error: could not find `Cargo.toml` in `/home/staltz/oss/someproject/node_modules/disk-utility/native` or any parent directory

or

➜  npm i

> ssb-neon-keys@7.2.0-2 postinstall /home/staltz/oss/someproject/node_modules/ssb-neon-keys
> node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build=false || neon build --release

sh: 1: node-pre-gyp: not found
neon ERR! spawn cargo ENOENT

Error: spawn cargo ENOENT

This seems to be the case regardless if node-pre-gyp is defined in package.json > scripts > install or package.json > scripts > postinstall. I'm wondering if you stumbled upon this error before, and how did you resolve it?

More info on my local setup:

After installing node-pre-gyp I get this:

Error: The module '/node_modules/disk-utility/native/index.node'
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 72. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 83. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
the module (for instance, using `npm rebuild` or `npm install`).

I installed the lib with node 14 lts release.

@staltz I'm not able to reproduce that error

[amilajack]

@muuvmuuv interesting. Interesting. What's the entire stacktrace?

[amilajack]

@staltz to clarify, are you running into that when installing npm modules for the locally cloned project or are you getting that error when running npm install on a project that consumes disk-utility?

This utility will walk you through creating a package.json file.
It only covers the most common items, and tries to guess sensible defaults.

See `npm help init` for definitive documentation on these fields
and exactly what they do.

Use `npm install <pkg>` afterwards to install a package and
save it as a dependency in the package.json file.

Press ^C at any time to quit.
