4 months ago This happens because there's a native Node module used as a dependency within some projects here called node-datachannel. This module requires native compilation.
Because this can be tricky for some users, as a solution that module publishes prebuilt binaries for various recognized environments, including Linux + Node v20 + x64 (your environment). What should happen is that the install process checks your environment, and just downloads the matching precompiled version of the dependency and uses that.
npm ERR! prebuild-install WARN install Request timed out
Unfortunately that download fails here. For some reason the connection (to github.com) times out and it can't download the prebuilt binary.
npm ERR! ERR! OMG CMake executable is not found. Please use your system's package manager to install it, or you can get installers from there: http://cmake.org/.
Since it can't download the prebuilt version, the install tries to compile it from scratch, but your system doesn't have a working C build environment, so that fails.
This isn't really related to HTTP Toolkit - this is a general problem with native module compilation. There's two ways to fix this:
- Work out why the prebuild download is failing. It might be an intermittent issue that will work if you just retry, or it might be that there's some kind of network issue for you connecting to github.com to download those binaries. If the prebuild download works then you won't need to compile anything.
- Alternatively, set up a working native build environment on your machine so you can compile a node-gyp native module (full requirements here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-gyp#installation). This will be useful more generally since it will allow you to install any native module (even if no prebuilds are available at all). You can install this on Debian distros as
build-essential. I'm not sure if there's a CentOS equivalent but I'd suggest installing the requirements from the node-gyp docs, re-running this command, and thenm installing anything else the errors say is missing until it works.
