Unable to find sqlite3 when run

[paul90]

Any folks building from source, feel free to give the new master a try and let me know how this refactor works for you. Hopefully there aren't too many new bugs or regressions.

Running npm start fails with Error: Cannot find module '/Users/Paul/Projects/dat/beaker/app/node_modules/@beaker/core/node_modules/sqlite3/lib/binding/electron-v4.0-darwin-x64/node_sqlite3.node'

The directory beaker/app/node_modules/@beaker/core/node_modules/sqlite3/lib/binding/electron-v4.0-darwin-x64 does not exist!

Looking at npm install output, node_sqlite3.node is getting installed in a different location beaker/app/node_modules/@beaker/core/node_modules/sqlite3/lib/binding/node-v64-darwin-x64

[paul90]

Just spotted, the location of the module aside, the name of the file node-v64-darwin-x64 would suggest that the Electron 3 prebuilt version of sqlite3 is getting installed.

Did you try running npm run rebuild and/or npm run burnthemall ?

[paul90]

I have tried both, tried npm run burnthemall after using rebuild failed.

[pfrazee]

You're on macos, right? Which version?

Are there any errors when you run rebuild ?

[paul90]

Yes, macOS 10.14.3

While I don't see any sqlite3 errors in rebuild, in the install I see..

> sqlite3@4.0.6 install /Users/Paul/Projects/dat/beaker/app/node_modules/@beaker/core/node_modules/sqlite3
> node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build

node-pre-gyp WARN Using request for node-pre-gyp https download 
[sqlite3] Success: "/Users/Paul/Projects/dat/beaker/app/node_modules/@beaker/core/node_modules/sqlite3/lib/binding/node-v64-darwin-x64/node_sqlite3.node" is installed via remote

In rebuild I see sodium-native install fail with an error finding libtool, even though the xcode cli tools are install, but no other errors.

[pfrazee]

Weird that this is suddenly happening, but try running brew install libtool autoconf automake

[pfrazee]

(And then rebuild again)

[paul90]

Looks to have been a bit more complex than simply doing that brew install... As I have xcode installed brew install libtool as glibtool, so in itself it didn't solve anything..

However, creating a link so that brew installed libtool highlighted what was probably the real problem, libtoolize was missing. The brew install libtool failed as it was being passed invalid paramters.

Rebuild now runs, and I am able to start beaker, though I notice dat-serve Failed to load sodium-native. Performance may be degraded. Error: Cannot find module 'sodium-native'

[pfrazee]

Was there any error during the rebuild of sodium-native?

[paul90]

No errors.

Not finding sodium-native looks to have been caused by my npm configuration, which contained global-style = true, so it was not in the expected place. Removing that setting resolves that issue.

Going to close this issue, as the build now completes and npm start starts beaker without any errors.

[pfrazee]

Good deal, sorry for the issues!
