Installation of protagonist failed about protagonist HOT 14 CLOSED

Have you tried to build this from MSVC command prompt?

I just tried that, but I get the same error (only with a little different formatting).

I tried to upgrade the snowcrash solution with Visual Studio 2013, but I get build errors:

Hey @tbremeyer,
I just made a local test using Windows 8.1, Visual Studio 2013, node 0.12.4, npm 2.10.1 and Python 2.7

Could you please share more information about your system configuration?

I think the problem is that npm is trying to compile the native code using Visual Studio 2010 that you probably don't have installed. The best way to get rid of this is notice npm to use a different version.

You can do that simply writing npm config set msvs_version 2013 on your command line.
Please let me know it it helps/solves your issue

Thanks!

Could you explain me why protagonist needs to rebuild node-gyp? This realy blocks the usage of aglio for example, as every developer would have to install visual studio on it's local machine just to install that one module.

from protagonist.

@Gingonic
Protagonist does not need to rebuild node-gyp. It uses node-gyp to build the sources according to your machine architecture and set compiler.

But I agree with you that providing prebuilt binaries would help a lot of people to use protagonist without having to install several developer tools. I am thinking about node-pre-gyp. What is your thought about, @z?

I think we can use appveyor to generate them, and then upload them somewhere.
I would be happy to work on that.

P.S: A lot of modules are used to be built on the client machine. So, as you go deeper into nodejs ecosystem, you would need Visual Studio for sure.

@XVincentX unfortunately providing binary installation on Windows was and still is a huge issue do to (in)compatibility of runtime libraries amongst differ Windows versions.

Hey guys, I know this is about Windows installation, but I wanted to point out we might be having a similar issue on more recent Linux kernels:

@voor That error log is about a different issue which occurred in our latest release. We will be fixing it soon and give a new release.

@pksunkara any updates? I have same issue on OSX 10.11, npm 3.5.2, node 5.3.0

@pavelkornev please try again now, released protagonist 1.2.5 which should resolve your problem.

from protagonist.

@kylef that works! Thanks for a quick fix.

from protagonist.

For what it is worth, if you are on Windows with MSVS2015 there is an issue with Node building tool and native extensions. As I've found out you need to set version of MSVS for GYP:

Note: On Windows with MSVS 2015 make sure to run $ set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2015 prior to $ apm install linter-api-blueprint.
(from https://github.com/zdne/linter-api-blueprint#installation)

This might apply to Aglio with Protagonist on Windows with MSVS2015...

from protagonist.

I'm going to close this issue out since we haven't heard from the original creator in a while, and since the bug was originally created against Protagonist 0.20. I believe that many problems when installing Protagonist on Windows have been resolved in later versions of Protagonist and Drafter.

If anyone is still having any difficulty installing Protagonist please create a separate issue and we'd be happy to take a look.
