"node-gyp exited with code" error when installing Fibers

[marknotton]

I require Fibers so I can use the Dart Sass compiler for the Gulp Sass plugin.

npm: 6.13.7
node: 13.11.0
fibers: 4.0.2
gulp-sass: 4.0.2
MacOS Catalina: 10.15

It would seem the reoccurring "solution" I'm seeing online is to downgrade to node 11. This isn't a viable option for us really.

node-gyp exited with code: 1

same situation, I am on MacOs Catalina 10.15. I have tried all of the options here: https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/blob/master/macOS_Catalina.md and it didn't work. I am on Node 12.16.1

same here with node 13.X on linux. for some reason, only LTS versions are supported it seems

If you are running nodejs version 10.x or 12.x on Linux, OS X, or Windows (7 or later) then you should be able to install fibers from npm just fine. If you are running nodejs v8.x then you will need to use npm install fibers@3. If you are running nodejs v6.x then you will need to use npm install fibers@2. For nodejs v4.x you can use npm install fibers@1. If you are running an older (or newer) version of node or some other operating system you will have to compile fibers on your system.

So you probably have to compile it yourself. I don't know why we have to, though, if it obviously compiles (i just tried).

Node 12 seems to be an LTS and doesn't work with fibers either. :/

My guess is your running in to a recent xcode issue that I ran in to on Mac. Had nothing to do with Fibers but rather the build tools. Here is a medium post on it ( https://medium.com/faun/macos-catalina-xcode-homebrew-gems-developer-headaches-cf7b1edf10b7 )

i get this when i want to use with nuxtjs:

Hi,

I was also stuck with this issue. I had recently upgraded to nodejs v15 and didn't check my dependencies. After downgrading to nodejs v14 again, the error remained despite working before.

What stood out to me where these lines in the error message:

sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en-US)
/bin/sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en-US)
gyp: Call to 'ldd --version 2>&1 | head -n1 | grep "musl" | wc -l' returned exit status 0 while in binding.gyp. while trying to load binding.gyp

I then tried switching from fish-shell to a bash-shell and was able to install fibers again.

Hope this helps anyone else.

System Info:

Linux 5.8.18-1-MANJARO
node v14.12.0
npm  v6.14.8 
node-gyp v5.1.0

I'm also having trouble with fibers during npm install on a project, hasn't happened before on the sam project.

I feel like I've tried everything, different combinations of python and visual studio build tools versions.

I can see that the version of fibers being tried to install is 4.0.1, and there truly are the set and get methods with mentioned argumetn counts, that are no longer present in 5.0.0.

However where could I find what version of vs build tools is required by 4.0.1? Because I can not get it to work with either 2017 nor 2019.
