Unable to install shader-school using npm

[vishangshah]

Hello,

I am getting lots of errors when installing using npm install -g shader-school.
I have installed node.js and git.

Am I missing any step?

Thanks

[max-mapper]

@vishangshah you might have to use 'sudo' e.g. 'sudo npm install shader-school -g'

if that doesnt work can you paste the error you get here?

[vishangshah]

@maxogden I am installing it on windows, so sudo doesn't work in node.js command window.

Attaching npm-debug.log here by renaming it to npm-debug.jpg,

Thanks

[hughsk]

@vishangshah you're not able to treat text like an image like that – could you please paste the logs as plain text in this issue? Thanks!

[vishangshah]

@hughsk Looks like the errors, warnings start with git cloning.

[Dakror]

Same here, also trying to compile on Windows (7). Apparently the stanford-dragon package tries to executer the rm command which is Unix only

[todrobbins]

I'm getting similar errors installing on OSX with sudo. See: https://gist.github.com/todrobbins/9069402c257d70c013fe

[mikolalysenko]

@todrobbins you need to relicense XCode after the latest update. Just do sudo git status and agree to all the legal boilerplate Apple throws at you.

[todrobbins]

@mikolalysenko you, sir, are a wizard! Thank you!

[todrobbins]

I did run into another error although shader-school is working fine right now:

Package xcb-shm was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xcb-shm.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

@vishangshah @Dakror The stanford-dragon package has been updated to work on Windows, can you try installing shader-school again?

[vishangshah]

I am still getting lot of errors on Windows 7.

@vishangshah I believe this is because you don't have git installed in the environment you're using npm to install shader-school with. Maybe it will work from git bash?

Hi everyone, I am having issues with the install process too. I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and I do have install git and node.

I will leave the console output here (I executed the command using sudo):

Has anyone resolved the problem?

[rcanepa]

I solved the problem executing this command (probably not secure):

npm config set strict-ssl false
