Python requirement for installation? #120

Closed kalihos closed 8 years ago

kalihos commented 8 years ago

Hi.

I was looking for a reverse proxy to be able to handle N Node processes (one for each individual client), through port 80 and using subdomains. I tried to install globally using npm install -g http-master, but I got an error requesting Python installed in my system. Is this normal?

C:\Users\ecame\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\http-master\node_modules\bufferutil>if not defined npm_config_node_gyp (node "C:\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node-gyp-bin....\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild ) else (node "" rebuild ) gyp ERR! configure error gyp ERR! stack Error: Can't find Python executable "python", you can set the PYTHON env variable. gyp ERR! stack at failNoPython (C:\nodejs\node_modules\npm\node_modules\node-gyp\lib\configure.js:401:14)

I'm installing on Windows 10 as my development environment, but I will install later on Windows Server 2008 in my production env.

Thanks a lot! Enrique.

node-gyp is used by node.js itself to build native dependencies. It's unfortunate they're using Python for that but that's how it is. There's nothing we can do.

Even if you make node-gyp work on Windows, you'll hit other problems. http-master doesn't officially support Windows. We'll accept pull requests, though!

Have a good one, -Damian

@kalihos I think once you install python everything should work on Windows. Let us know if it is the case.

Hi all.

I tried to install Python, and I got another error due to the version installed (too new for the package, as I saw in the message). I installed then an older version, but suitable for this case, and I got another different error:

C:\Users\ecame\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\http-master\node_modules\bufferutil>if not defined npm_config_node_gyp (node "C:\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node-gyp-bin....\node_modules\node-gyp\bin\node-gyp.js" rebuild ) else (node "" rebuild ) Los proyectos de esta solución se van a compilar de uno en uno.

So I decided to move to Nginx, because I have no change to work with Linux for the moment. Thank you very much for your replies.

Have a good day.
