node.bcrypt.js: Bcrypt fails to install on node v 8.12.0

What went wrong,

Installing bcrypt@3.0.0 on node v 8.12.0 causes an installation error where previous versions (8.11.4) did not. See snippet below for the install log

Please try with v3.0.1

This issue has normally been fix by this PR (https://github.com/kelektiv/node.bcrypt.js/pull/649) but the fix hasn’t been released on the npm repo yet. A release should be done soon with the fix but meanwhile you can link to the branch master of the github repo in your package.json like this :

"bcrypt": "https://github.com/kelektiv/node.bcrypt.js.git#master"

This is of course temporary solution.

We’re migrating to bcryptjs, zero dependencies, zero installation headaches.

With Node v8.X.X use bcrypt >= 1.0.3 and < 3.0.0 (source: front page)

I am also facing the same issue still with “bcrypt”: “3.0.1”, node 8.12.0 and npm 6.4.1 on Windows 10

I am still facing this issue on windows. Any update? I tried installing 3.0.1 version, still same error.

Have you at any point installed bcrypt successfully before. If yes, then Try running yarn add bcrypt@3.0.2 or npm install --save bcrypt@3.0.2 . This works for me on node version 8.12.0

It seems that the main issue is node-pre-gyp which tries to use needle instead of request while downloading. needle is heavily broken.

However, I’m not able to reproduce the build failures. Source compile should always work if you have python2, make and a c++ compiler. The most likely reason is you are running npm as root (under sudo). Source compile will fail in such situations.

Manually adding request to dependencies causes node-pre-gyp to use it, which fixes issues associated with downloading pre-built binaries.

@stridentbean Well I have a docker solution as well but I add a couple more dependecies to make bcrypt work in my image :

FROM node:8

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y build-essential && apt-get install -y python
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package.json /usr/src/app/package.json
RUN npm install
COPY . /usr/src/app
EXPOSE 9000
CMD ["node", "."]

If any one still have this problem you can fix it by doing this

npm install -g node-gyp
npm install --g --production windows-build-tools

or install cmake and gcc on linux by using

sudo apt install cmake gcc -y

Currently using node v8.12 I also had this problem today, fixed with by specifying a specific bcrypt version
yarn add bcrypt@3.0.2 This works for me. Device Configuration: Windows 10, npm version 6.4.1

Same issue with bcrypt@3.01 running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (npm@6.4.1/node@8.12.0).
