Can't install 0.46.0 on raspberry PI about hfs HOT 6 CLOSED

it seems you are missing "g++" on your rasp, required by a new module i use in 0.46 .
I didn't know about this new requirement. 🙁
It also seems that I cannot automate its installation. For the time being I will have to specify it on the README.
I have g++ on my raspberry. See if you can install it, and possibly share how you solve here, for other users.

i just ran 0.46.0 like this, with npx

but also without npx

rejetto@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo npm i -g [email protected] 

added 145 packages in 21s

23 packages are looking for funding
  run `npm fund` for details

successful.

Yeah I read that and thought the same.

How can I install g++ directly?

I have node-gyp installed and their docs say I need:
"A proper C/C++ compiler toolchain, like GCC"

but gcc is installed so I'm not sure what I'm missing.

fs-extended-attributes seems to be a super outdated package that hasn't been updated in 5 years.

I get the same error if I try to install it directly npm install -g fs-extended-attributes.

Is there no alternatives? What package is depending on it and can we maybe patch it?

from hfs.

i'm no linux user. I googled for it and found sudo apt-get install build-essential to get g++

from hfs.

Ah that looks like it did it, I thought gcc would be enough.

Thanks for the help.

Steps to resolve:

1. sudo apt-get install build-essential
2. npm i -g [email protected]

from hfs.

cool.
i noticed that while several platforms are prebuilt, linux-arm is not.
I'm not sure if I can do something about it, like forking and injecting another file for linux-arm. It would be cool if someone else could look into it.

fs-extended-attributes seems to be a super outdated package that hasn't been updated in 5 years.

and yet it's the best I've found
