Build error npm install --kaldi_root=<my kaldi root>

[51N4]

Getting
error: cannot use 'throw' with exceptions disabled error: cannot use 'try' with exceptions disabled

When running npm install on vosk-api although kaldi compiling according to the instructions.

Please update and check if this commit:

https://github.com/alphacep/vosk-api/commit/c2e006f6649773997b9785692afb49dafacd517c

fixes build for you

[51N4]

It starts compiling the kaldi source now, thanks you. : ) But now there is another error:

SOLINK_MODULE(target) Release/vosk.node clang: error: no such file or directory: 'Release/obj.target/vosk/vosk_wrap.o' make: *** [Release/vosk.node] Error 1

[51N4]

I also noticed this is package file.

Is this accurate that it uses Pocketsphinx for this build?

"name": "vosk", "version": "0.3.8", "description": "Node binding for continuous voice recoginition through pocketsphinx.", "repository": { "type": "git", "url": "git://github.com/alphacep/vosk-api.git" },

[nshmyrev]

clang: error: no such file or directory: 'Release/obj.target/vosk/vosk_wrap.o'

There was an earlier error with swig, you need to check the full log

Is this accurate that it uses Pocketsphinx for this build?

Fixed, thank you

nodejs m4m4$ swig -version

SWIG Version 4.0.2

Compiled with clang++ [x86_64-apple-darwin19.5.0]

Configured options: +pcre

Please see http://www.swig.org for reporting bugs and further information

Try with node 10, 12 seems not yet supported by swig.

[51N4]

Ah, had to use nvm to set a node version and it compiled. Much appreciated on a Sunday!

🙏🏻🤟🏻👏🏻

[nshmyrev]

Hopefully we'll write NAPI bindings one day, lets track it in https://github.com/alphacep/vosk-api/issues/116
