Installation fails on node 0.12.0

[PaulMougel]

I don't really know how to fix this, does anyone have an idea? I'm running Mac Os X Yosemite, node 0.12.0, npm 2.5.1.

Hi Paul, node v0.12 uses a newer version of V8 which has breaking API changes. I will have to rewrite most of the C++ binding code, preferably porting it to use nan, a package which aims to abstract away the differences between the different V8 APIs. I did not find the time to work on this yet, but I might be able to solve it in the next week or two. Best wishes, Philipp

[PaulMougel]

Awesome, that sounds great! Keep us updated then :)

[Planeshifter]

I just pushed a new version of the package to npm. It should now run with node v0.12.0.

Cool! thanks a lot
