Electron + pdfjs/node-canvas - Compiled against a different Node.js version - NODE_MODULE_VERSION 108 vs NODE_MODULE_VERSION 109 #1

Open GitMurf opened 1 year ago

First thing we need to solve is how to get pdfjs https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js (with its node-canvas dependency as the issue) to be properly compiled against the correct version of Node that Electron is using since node-canvas is a native node module.

node-canvas (https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas) does have pre-builds to use but there is not a version that matches to the Electron node version it seems.
