What compiler is actually needed? NPM still does all the installing?
Restify uses dtrace-provider which is a native module and needs a C++ compiler installed. NPM will still install it, but will fail doing the install if there is no C++ compiler (like gcc or llvm) installed. I always have Xcode installed on my Mac so it isn't an issue for me, but not all of the SNow developers that I work with have a compiler on their computer.
experimental branch now contains your fork. Initial testing seems fine. 1 part needs re-testing for dodgy https/SSL setups. I will test this branch a bit more before merging it in to master. Thanks for the awesome upgrade!
In order to remove the need for a compiler, I have started a fork that uses restler instead of restify.
Thoughts?
