With the latest version of NodeJS (19.0.1) the build fails.

Running on Mac OS Ventura

Error: Command failed: node-gyp configure build  --IS_DOWNLOADED=true --IBM_DB_HOME="$IBM_DB_HOME"

@orangecoding First install nan using npm install nan@latest and then run npm install ibm_db. It should work. Thanks.

That did not help unfortunately

[orangecoding]

Did you try it yourself with NodeJs V19.0.1?

[bimalkjha]

@orangecoding Yes, it worked for me using node v19.1.0. See the below output:

blr-d-macos02.rocketsoftware.com: bjha/nodework/installed> npm ls nan
/Users/bjha/nodework/installed
`-- (empty)

blr-d-macos02.rocketsoftware.com: bjha/nodework/installed> node -v
v19.1.0

If it fails for you, then check output of command npm ls nan before and after npm install ibm_db. The issue faced by you is will nan@2.16.0 but not with latest version of nan. Thanks.

[orangecoding]

I have a bunch of dependencies, ibm_db is just one. If I run npm install on my package.json, it fails. The output is:

cedp@1.0.0 
└─┬ ibm_db@3.0.0
  └── nan@2.16.0

[bimalkjha]

@orangecoding Your nan version is 2.16.0 which is not for NodeJS 19.x. nan version should be 2.17.0, then only you can install ibm_db. Please update it accordingly. Otherwise, we'll have a new release of ibm_db this week, then this issue will get fixed. We are going to update nan version. Thanks.

@orangecoding Released a new version of ibm_db@3.1.0 with support for Node.js v19.x. Thanks.
