better-sqlite3: Error: Cannot find module '../build/better_sqlite3.node'

npm uninstall better-sqlite3-helper -g npm uninstall better-sqlite3-helper --save npm i better-sqlite3-helper --save it worked

Hey, it’s probably late, but if any of you are having this problem while using Glitch, you may run the following command in the console: enable-pnpm

I was able to get it running by doing node-gyp rebuild in both the integer and better-sqlite3 folders under node_modules. Hopefully this works for you!

(Took a while for me to find out exactly was messing up, but I think that it’s just node-gyp being weird)

im having that too. tried all the troubleshooting stuff and whatnot. No luck

I hate the same problem…

I guess that the only way to solve this issue is to downgrade the node it’s working ?

For those who are using typescript, installing both @types/better-sqlite3 and better-sqlite3 will solve the problem.

npm install @types/better-sqlite3 better-sqlite3

Welp. I’m still having this issue in 2021. The latest install of Quick.db complains abt not having .node files in the builds folder

better-sqlite3 is built by node-gyp, which is the standard way of building any native addon for Node.js.

After the binaries are built, we utilize a node-gyp command called copies:

"copies": [{
  "files": ["<(PRODUCT_DIR)/better_sqlite3.node"],
  "destination": "build",
}],

Since this command is provided by node-gyp, I assume that it works on every platform. However, it seems like the issue described in this thread is likely related to this copies command not working as expected.

If the command is indeed supported on every platform, it’s possible that the copy is failing due to incorrect permissions or something similar.
