Small problem dumping a database. Please help! :) #43

Hi. Great stuff! But I have a small problem when dumping a database. I know it's my fault, but can you help?

Here's what I did. I started off with:

./yahoo-groups-backup.py scrape_messages jokes_and_stories --driver=chrome --delay=1

This works. The database of messages is downloaded. Then I do:

./yahoo-groups-backup.py dump_site jokes_and_stories jokes_and_stories_static

Now I get the error:

node not found - node is required to generate the search indices

A little background: I'm using Arch Linux. Python, pip & the dependencies / requirements all installed just fine. The mongodb.service is up and running. The database appears in Mongo when I type show dbs.

Any idea what might be happening? Thanks :)

Solved by installing node.js ;)
