I tried npm install and npm test with both node 5.11.0 and 6.0.0, with npm updated to 3.8.6 with no problems. I suspect there is something wrong with your setup. I recommend that you try building some other Nan-based projects and checking your setup very carefully.

Thanks for the report! This was broken by the new "nan" release and we've worked around the change in webworker-threads 0.4.13. Please "npm install" again and it should work.

Awesome, thanks for your quick response.

Can't install the pkg. what should I do?

from node-webworker-threads.

node 4.0

from node-webworker-threads.

Hmm. Sorry for the trouble. Would you like to give Node 4.2 a try?

from node-webworker-threads.

It was on 4.2

from node-webworker-threads.

Somehow you're installing an old version of webworker-threads (0.4.12). Try this:

npm i [email protected]

from node-webworker-threads.

Will check that.

from node-webworker-threads.

Is there an issue with the library and node 5.11.0?

For some reason node-gyp build is failing...
