can't work in browser ? #57

Closed helxsz closed 5 years ago

helxsz commented 5 years ago

I am playing ssb-keys on the browser along with angular stack, but both ssb-keys and private-box depends on chloride library, and chloride library can not work on the browser.

how would i make it work

chloride library can not work on the browser.

hi @helxsz, chloride should be able to work in the browser, can you post the error you're seeing?

ahdinosaur commented 5 years ago

but it might be that chloride doesn't work in the browser unless you're using browserify, i could see some possible awkwardness with other bundlers from how chloride/index.js does the browser loading.

helxsz commented 5 years ago

yes, my wrong, chloride does work. What doesn't work is node-gyp-build.

That is the error 

ERROR in ./node_modules/node-gyp-build/index.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'fs' in '/projects/insta/instagram/node_modules/node-gyp-build'

As i investigated that angular doesn't support fs anymore, I wondered any way around?
