Opencv4nodejs: npm install Fails

Hope this fits with the new temple issue.

NPM Install Fails.

I had the same issue as you on Fedora 29. Make sure you follow the linux\unix section for https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp. I was missing gcc-c++.

Yeah. That was the issue.

Anyone face this issue with Windows 10? Noting on previous comments: if it's a missing gcc-c++ issue, I don't know how that would be an issue as I have successfully installed node-gyp, globally.

Also, I've been able to successfully use opencv4nodejs using the instructions provided with Docker and didn't face this issue.

I'm trying to install this opencv4nodejs within a Firebase functions directory after having initialized the Firebase app.

Has anyone been able to do this successfully?

[ShadabFaiz]

I'm not sure if node-gyp install gcc-c++ internally, but installing it manually did fix my problem

[primalAbe]

I finally got it to work locally. Alas, it was for nothing because deploying firebase functions will fail because it can't compile the c++ files with cmake since cmake is not supported by firebase (i.e., the firebase VM does not have it installed and it cannot be installed manually).

I have this problem with OSX.
