Node-rdkafka: npm install on mac os

[gzunigaskyjack]

Hello all,

I am trying to get started with this library, buy I am having issues installing it and I could not find information on this error.

I read a lot, so I have installed OpenSSL through Homebrew and I have added those exports from the README to my .bash_profile. However, installation still fails.

OpenSSL:
gzuniga$ brew list openssl /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/.bottle/etc/ (8 files) /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/bin/c_rehash /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/bin/openssl /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/include/openssl/ (75 files) /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/lib/engines/ (12 files) /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/lib/pkgconfig/ (3 files) /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/lib/ (4 other files) /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s/share/man/ (1683 files)

Bash profile:
gzuniga$ cat .bash_profile export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/emulator export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib

Error:
out.txt

Node:
gzuniga$ node --version v12.6.0

NPM:
gzuniga$ npm --version 6.9.0

I also tried this:
brew install librdkafka

However, it did not change anything. Do I need it?

What am I missing?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.

This is probably issue with node-12.06.
I'm trying to update from node10.4 -> node12.6. Is node12.6 supported?

This is the error message:
4 warnings generated.
CXX(target) Release/obj.target/node-librdkafka/src/common.o
../src/common.cc:94:46: error: no matching member function for call to 'ToString'

It seems so. Downgrading Node made the installation work. The README.md states Node.js >=4, so I just assumed it would be fine with the latest version.

I am seeing similar issue when installing with node 12.4.0:

../src/producer.cc:457:46: error: no matching member function for call to 'GetOwnPropertyNames'
        v8::Local<v8::Array> props = header->GetOwnPropertyNames();
                                     ~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On 11.x.x version it works. But downgrading isn't an option as the electron version doesn't match against build version.

12.x support was added in PR #610 on Jul, 4th but it wasn't released because 2.7.0 contain changes only from Jul, 1st. Does anybody know when is the next release which would contain node12 support?

[ganapativs]

Release new version to support node 12.x please 🙏

2.7.4 supports node 12

I personally dropped this library for Java's kafka-clients. Thank you everybody for you input.
