I am working on my samsung note 20 (with dex). With Termux app I tried to run npm I realm@10.0.0-rc.2 But i've got this : ` npm i realm@10.0.0-rc.2 npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142 npm WARN deprecated core-js@1.2.7: core-js@<3 is no longer maintained and not recommended for usage due to the number of issues.

thanks for the information. Unfortunately, we don't support android as a development environment. You need to use Linux, Windows or MacOS

geragray commented 4 years ago

@grpetit would it be possible for you to describe a use case that you are trying to solve with Realm Node JS SDK on Android? Historically we have been thinking of node.js for desktop or server-side (and even introduced support for Rasberry Pi https://github.com/realm/realm-js/issues/2230) and React Native for Adnroid/iOS. Just trying to understand how to support you better.

tekkengreg commented 4 years ago

@geragray, I try to develop ReactJS app plugged on mongodb realm. I already develop some draft app on my phone and I would like to try out the new severless realm.

tekkengreg commented 4 years ago

Ho ho ho I just see realm-web module... seems to work on android \o/
I dunno what the difference between realm and realm-web, but this one is working.

I guess I can close the issue :)

realm-web is a subset of realm - it doesn't have the database component.

velocitys3 commented 3 years ago

I have a use case wanting to compile/install realm with the database component & sync running Node.js using Termux on Android and ish on iOS. The install: npm install realm, provides the error mentioned above in regards to the unsupported platform

We have a large ecomm application running in Salesforce that we have surfaced as part of their opensource platform that runs on a minimal Node.js app (https://lwc.dev/), with an over 1GB product catalog (largest wine and liquor distributor in the US) syncing for offline-use using Realm on iPad/tablets is the requirement. Without re-writing our components for native SDK's, looking at running Node.js on all our salesperson's tablets. This is working minus the realm installation. Is what we are trying to do a possibility?

@velocitys3

Currently we only produce binaries for Linux (x86_64), MacOS (x86_64, M1) and Windows (x86 and x86_64) so I doubt it will work out of the box.

If you have a full development environment installed on the tablet (C++ compiler), npm will most likely try to build Realm for you.
