node-nightly: 404 - node-nightly

Just tried node-nightly. Following is what I am getting on first time usage of the command node-nightly

{ [HTTPError: Response code 404 (Not Found)] message: 'Response code 404 (Not Found)', host: 'nodejs.org', hostname: 'nodejs.org', method: 'GET', path: '/download/nightly/v7.0.0-nightly201608085111e789e6/node-v7.0.0-nightly201608085111e789e6-darwin-x64.tar.gz', statusCode: 404, statusMessage: 'Not Found', bufferedData: <Buffer > }

What happened to the download link? Why 404? Am I missing something?

I am using Mac El Capitan. Node - v5.2.0 NPM - 3.3.12

I feel it would be great to find the latest version in the directory structure for a given os version and have 0 inputs from the user.

As @cswl was mentioning.

If i were to say, i would personally prefer more interaction in this case.

I would like to see my console like this

Downloading the nightly version, hang on...
Oops! Seems like there is no build ${version} available for ${your-os}
Would you like to fallback to older version(Y/N)?
..${Then do  stuff here}

node-nightly@1.6.0 fixes this, thanks for reporting.

Green at last! Phew!

Thanks!

I think with this, we must be good for a minor version bump for node-nigthly, let us close this issue ASAP!

Okies, now we can integrate this? 😇

If the changes don’t affect a platform they are not built… nightly doesn’t necessarily mean a new build every night.

I think we should download whatever the latest version of nightly available for the platform. That is still the latest nightly available for that platform.

This would require some change in the node-nightly-version. If we parse index.json instead of index.tab we can traverse until we find the version for the platform.
