I'm receiving the same error output when trying to build for Electron 5.0.0

Node: 12.1.0
Robotjs: 0.5.1

[emko]

anyone figured out how to fix this?

I believe this is caused by previously depreciated functions being removed from the version of v8 that Node12 uses. Basically they'll need to update robotjs.cc in order to fix this. In the mean time, Node11 should still work.

but doesn't electron 5 need node 12? or will it still work with 11?

Correct, you'd have to use Electron 4.2.0

[oktapodia]

A new version of robotjs supporting the latest NodeJS version will be published soon.

1. Please use nvm and switch to the version node@8
2. Complete installation of all prerequisites from node-gyp
