Running electron-builder on Win11 fails when package "pdfjs-dist" is included because of ~/node_modules/canvas about node-canvas HOT 3 OPEN

hi, has any solution yet?

from node-canvas.

Maybe config is missing for Electron: https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp?tab=readme-ov-file#build-for-third-party-nodejs-runtimes
I have the same error:

npm ERR! node-pre-gyp WARN Pre-built binaries not installable for [email protected] and [email protected] (electron-v27.3 ABI, unknown) (falling back to source compile with node-gyp)
npm ERR! node-pre-gyp WARN Hit error response status 404 Not Found on https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/releases/download/v2.11.2/canvas-v2.11.2-electron-v27.3-win32-unknown-x64.tar.gz

there is no canvas-v2.11.2-electron-v27.3-win32-unknown-x64.tar.gz pre-built package for electron here: https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/releases

The electron must be excluded to find binaries and will not try to compile with node-gyp.. or maye we can add canvas-v2.11.2-electron-v27.3 binary in releases @zbjornson ?

I can confirm that it works with "postinstall": "rimraf node_modules/canvas"

from node-canvas.

canvas is optional dependency for pdfjs-dist and this fix issue for me: npm install --no-optional

from node-canvas.
