Compiling on OS400

[mikemicmike]

Hi,

I'm trying to install this onto a IBM I Power (AS400), When trying to run an npm install with a project that includes watcher, the build process fails completely.

I get the following error code

@parcel/watcher@2.0.4 install /Portal/MPILO0/oceanex-js-final/node_modules/@parcel/watcher
node-gyp-build

gmake: Entering directory '/Portal/MPILO0/oceanex-js-final/node_modules/@parcel/watcher/build'

then this towards the end
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! @parcel/watcher@2.0.4 install: node-gyp-build
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the @parcel/watcher@2.0.4 install script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

Is there any workaround for me to be able to get this to install on an AS400 OS (this is a unix like OS that does support C/C++)

Thanks

I am not familiar with that system, but perhaps one of these conditions is not matching and therefore none of the platform specific code is being included? You could try modifying this and see if it works. https://github.com/parcel-bundler/watcher/blob/master/binding.gyp#L11
