This is the error shown while running.
On bcrypt's GitHub wiki, they say that it is a native module for node-js and that it requires a compiler and build dependencies in order to build. What am I doing wrong, can someone please help me

I was having the same problem,solved it by using **bcryptjs** (npm i bcryptjs) instead of bcrypt package.
It appears bcrypt fails on lambda because it uses node-gyp to build and install - not sure though will have to work though it.
Until then, bcryptjs works.
