Hi i cant join the fun to fly my Rolling-Spider with Node, because i can`t install this module on my Windows 8 or 10 Machine. Following message appears:

λ npm install rolling-spider

Hey,

This is because the Bluetooth module it depends on only runs on Linux and iOS at the moment, sorry :)

Cheers, Chris

I think ChrisTheBaron means Linux and OSX, right? (This does run on OSX [yosemite, at least. Having trouble with mavericks right now]).

Yes that is what I meant, thank you :)

Cheers, Chris

@blhack can you provide logs from mavericks?

sandeepmistry commented 9 years ago

@voodootikigod apologies for going off topics ...

@blhack's going to try a patch out for me. It looks like OS X 10.9 stopped emitting an event for write without response requests, so the write callback is never called, and things get stuck. If all goes well the latest noble will have a fix for this.

voodootikigod commented 9 years ago

Closing as the root issue is with Noble and windows support (which has a ticket already).
