Passwordless and mongostore

I clone a github repo( https://github.com/rbudiharso/smsauth-example ) for passwordless example, but when I try to do a npm install from package.json

ERR starts to pop up with the message below.

One of the error message points out that node-gyp rebuild which i have no idea.

Another error message points out problem with bcrypt.

The module that I tried to install but failed was passwordless-mongostore (available on npm)

So when I tried to install node-gyp, the below error log still exist.

so I just want to install and run the project before writing everything out, can someone assist one this?

Solution

  • Even though paswordless-mongostore is an NPM module it has Python dependencies. It depends directly on bcrypt, which depends both directly and indirectly on node-gyp.

    node-gyp is a cross-platform command-line tool written in Node.js for compiling native addon modules for Node.js. It bundles the gyp project used by the Chromium team and takes away the pain of dealing with the various differences in build platforms.

    gyp itself is written in Python, and node-gyp includes Python code directly. The error you are seeing comes from its configure.js file and is triggered when Python is not found.

    You have at least two options:
