3 months ago bcrypt library requires you to install an additional compiler. Ensure you have installed Python ^2, a C++ compiler, and a make system in your machine before installing bcrypt.
If you don't want to install all these dependencies, check this library bcryptjs. Performance is not up to the mark but it does the job of hashing.
npm install --save bcryptjs
This worked for me in 2024.
