Error in installing the package via npm

[3mRoshdy]

OS Mac OSX Whenever I try to install the package globally via NPM. I get this error

$ npm install -g bleak-detector

> chrome-devtools-frontend@1.0.735172 preinstall /Users/apple/.nvm/versions/node/v10.17.0/lib/node_modules/bleak-detector/node_modules/chrome-devtools-frontend
> if [ -z ${PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD+x} ]; then echo 'Run npm run install-deps instead' && exit 1; fi

Run npm run install-deps instead

Keeping in mind that i'm currently using 3.7 and have installed mitmproxy. Any idea why this happens ?

This is due to the chrome-devtools-frontend dependency's preinstall script, you can work around this by running the below command prior to running npm i -g bleak-detector: export PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=true

The issue still occurs. Is there any other reason why this would happen?

Try

sudo  PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=true  npm i -g bleak-detector
