[BUG] sh -c node-gyp rebuild fails

jamesmurdza commented 3 months ago

What happened?

Hi! Plasmo works fine on my system. Unfortunately I've tried showing two people how to use it and they both ran into dependency errors with node-gyp when trying to build new Plasmo apps.

This happens on npm run dev. Is this a common issue? It seems like a node-gyp issue, but many are running into it.

Here's a stream where we tried to debug it: https://youtu.be/4lbnB2f_Z5M?t=1035

Try installing node-gyp globally

yarn global add node-gyp

Hi! Thanks for the reply.

If you have a look at the screenshot and stream link above: The command that failed was installing node-gyp globally. I don't think it should make a difference if npm or yarn is used?

Also experiencing this via npm - using pnpm works fine, at least here. General consensus seems to point towards some BS with @parcel/watcher and npm compatibility 🤷‍♀️.
