Having a similar problem. Were you able to sort this out?

I ran into similar issues in Ubuntu 18 with incorrect Node JS versions. I eventually was able to get it all dockerized through trial and error. Try this:

FROM ubuntu:18.04 RUN apt-get update RUN apt-get install -y build-essential openssh-server apache2 RUN apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r) RUN apt-get install net-tools -y RUN apt-get update RUN apt-get install -y curl git nodejs npm RUN cd /root && git clone https://github.com/sushilks/kumojs.git RUN cd /root/kumojs && npm install && npm run build ADD kumo.cfg /root/kumojs/build/kumo.cfg RUN echo "cd /root/kumojs && npm run server" > /root/run_kumojs.sh RUN chmod +x /root/run_kumojs.sh

[lweighall]

You have to get this running elsewhere though -- so that you can run the config wizard/command line and get your config file. Once you have the config file SAVE IT. As long as you don't change your KUMO password it's valid. Even if the devices change IP you can change them manually in the file (but make DHCP reservations so this doesn't happen).

[lweighall]

You can also just change the RUN commands at the bottom to /bin/bash and then connect to it, and use the uninitialized node js server's config function to get your kumo config file.

I also have kubernetes manifests, if interested

Thanks for your help. I am not running on Ubuntu, but the similarity is that my install fails during the build phase with a similar message about "tsc: not found". Seems tsc was deprecated. Perhaps my version of Node is too recent and I need to load an older version?

[lweighall]

Yeah, you'll need the older version.

BTW That docker file will work on ANY computer with docker installed.

[lweighall]

RUN curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.2/install.sh | bash RUN bash -c ". /root/.nvm/nvm.sh && nvm install v6.11.2"

^^ I pulled those from @sushilks's docker file.... looks like you need v6.11.2

[bytetheapple]

Thanks

[bytetheapple]

Sorry to be slow at this, but I have installed node.js version 6.11.2 and have confirmed that this is what is running, but I still get the tcs: command not found error. Any insights? NPM is version 3.10.10 (FYI).

[lweighall]

When in doubt: Go to Ubuntu 16. Sorry I'd be in the same boat googling that error as you.

[lweighall]

Or you could use docker...

You need to install typescript. Instructions appear to be here: https://dev.to/quentindamianino/how-to-install-typescript-on-ubuntu-33am

On Fedora, the package name is : nodejs-typescript
