Node-gyp: Error in build npm install node-sass

[lucassantosTI]

I'm getting the following error message when trying to run my application's npm install, which uses the node-sass module which in turn uses node-gyp,

Support for Visual Studio 2019 was added in node-gyp v5.0.0 by https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/pull/1762. It looks like node-sass would need to update the version of node-gyp it depends on: https://github.com/sass/node-sass/blob/fbc9ff5abc72d9bc22a3b0bc9fa902fc46c980f7/package.json#L67

[hulucc]

I resolved it by running the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\BuildTools\Common7\Tools\vsdevcmd.bat" before npm install

[asolopovas]

same here. It doesn't seem to work with node 13

Hi, I get the same error on a azure pipeline build using a yarn task.

This is breaking my continuous integration pipeline.

It calm me down that I'm not the only one ;)

Closing as this isn't an issue with node-gyp and needs to be taken up with node-sass. node-gyp 5 (or 6) is required for Visual Studio 2019 support.

This is breaking my continuous integration pipeline.

I fixed this problem adding to the build phase a command line task forcing to install a specific version of node.

npm install -g [email protected]

Same here, does some one have a working solution?

Similar problem here, our project was created by Angular 7.0.5, now we use the current Version 8.3.23.

No matter what i do, each npm cli command leads to the same result! The mode-sass C/C++ build that fails...

I also installed the build tools (c/C++ compiler, python etc.) - does not work.

That issue made me INSANE, i'm working since days on it but there seems to be NO solution.

(Maybe setup the whole source code by a new Angular 8.3.23 project??!?)

[rvagg]

Not much we can do about Angular or node-sass here, please take it to their repos.

I appreciate the need for catharsis, but this is not an ideal place for it.

[jayjupdhig]

OK, thx.

"I appreciate the need for catharsis, but this is not an ideal place for it."

...that sounds really interesting!! ;-)

node-sass has min requirements on the node version itself.
see here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-sass

[jayjupdhig]

ok thx

[jayjupdhig]

The only one (quick?) solution was to downgrade to the latest 10.x version. But is there a solution, i can't always install and uninstall different node versions.

Install NVM on your system. It will list down all your installed node versions in console by using "nvm llist" command and you can switch to your specified node version when needed by this command "nvm use NODE_VERSION"

[jayjupdhig]

ok thx

[archywillhe]

hmm getting this though on the right version of node; something to do with yarn; npm is fine

[jmar83]

thank you for your information.
