Trying to install on OSX about stretto HOT 10 CLOSED

@bkbonner do you have xcode (or the developer libraries) installed on OSX? it may be needing make and gcc to build taglib.

from stretto.

Yes, i have (had) xCode installed at the time.

dhcp-10-14-116-179:node-music-player bbonner$ which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
dhcp-10-14-116-179:node-music-player bbonner$ which make
/usr/bin/make

I'll do some hunting around today.

Yeah taglib may be fast, but getting it to run cross platform is sort of a pain. I'll work tomorrow on getting it to work on OSX.

Thanks @bkbonner, I am running a bleeding edge Linux distro (Arch Linux) on most of my machines and I have no issues. I will however look into this when I get a chance as I have an 2009 macbook at home running Maverick.

Perhaps you could try this gist for installing taglib then try run the node install again? https://gist.github.com/trevorsheridan/1948299

You may also need node-gyp installed globally with npm install -g node-gyp. This may also need to be prefixed by sudo. More info here: https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp

I was able to install taglib on OSX (10.7) by using homebrew.
brew install taglib

from stretto.

@ohnoitsyou did npm install complete successfully after you run brew install taglib?

from stretto.

yep. everything installed properly and I was able to start and use the app.

Thanks @ohnoitsyou . I have modified the readme to point to the homebrew install instructions for taglib. Thanks for identifying the fix. @bkbonner can you confirm installing taglib from homebrew (see the readme) solves the issue?

from stretto.

Hi. brew install taglib completed fine....downloaded cmake...but it didn't link correctly. I'll work on it. Thanks.
