Error building node-serialport (Undefined variable module_name in binding.gyp) #69

Closed sweetim closed 9 years ago

sweetim commented 9 years ago

I am currently using Ubuntu 14.04 to build the node-serialport, but I have errors building them and I get the same errors using Windows 8.1 too:

Error: "Undefined variable module_name in binding.gyp"

Version number: Node-webkit = 0.12.2 Node = 0.12.4 Node-serialport = 1.7.1 Python = 2.7.6 nw-gyp = 0.12.4

These are the steps I used to build it. i) npm install serialport ii) cd node_modules/serialport iii) sudo nw-gyp configure --target=0.12.2

Undefined variable module_name in binding.gyp

iv) Saw this post (https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/wiki/Build-native-modules-with-nw-gyp) and I tried node-pre-gyp build --runtime=node-webkit --target=0.12.2

any idea how to fix this?

Run all these in Adminstrator mode

Switch to the serialport modul directory: cd node_modules\serialport

Make a clean: node-pre-gyp clean

Configure the build process: node-pre-gyp configure --runtime=node-webkit --target=0.12.2 Build the module for node-webkit: node-pre-gyp build --runtime=node-webkit --target=0.12.2

After all I have to change the directoryname from /node_modules/serialport/build/serialport/v1.6.3/Release/node-webkit-v0.12.0-win32-x64\ to /node_modules/serialport/build/serialport/v1.6.3/Release/node-webkit-v43-win32-x64\
