I have the same log as all the people having the same issue here. I do not understand how can i solve this problem. Can you help me?

Node: v8.4.0 NPM: v5.6.0

I tried both running npm install capnp and cloning/installing project (node 8 branch) with no success.

I have the same log as all the people having the same issue here.

What log? What people? What issue? There are currently no open issues about being unable to install.

I have the same problem. Here is the error. ../src/node-capnp/capnp.cc:31:10: fatal error: 'capnp/dynamic.h' file not found

include <capnp/dynamic.h>

     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 error generated.

My version is Node:v10.1.0

@aikikia You need to install Cap'n Proto on the machine before you can build the npm module. Instructions here: https://capnproto.org/install.html

@kentonv seems like I'm able to build it in Node v8.15.0 but not on Node v10.13.0 - I saw that 8.0+ should be supported in capnp 0.3.0+. is Node v10.13.0 a supported version?

kentonv commented 5 years ago

@calvinleungyk I've added a node10 branch which updates the code for the V8 API changes. (Well, sort of. This code really does not follow modern V8 API best practices, but I don't have time to rewrite it right now...)

I tried to publish this version to npm, but when I then tried to install the published version back from npm, the build failed with a strange error:

(...blah blah blah compiler warnings...)

    throw err;
    ^

It looks like the build script has bitrotted somehow, but the weird thing is that it works when built locally (before publishing). I don't have time to fix this at the moment. :/
