Error on clean installation using npm install: electron-chromedriver@1.7.1
-
I’m doing a clean installation on an arm64 Alt-SBC running Debian Stretch (latest), Node v9.4.0, npm v5.6.0, and pm2 v2.9.3.
I ran the following:
npm install
and received the following:
>electron-chromedriver@1.7.1 install /home/******/MagicMirror/node_modules/spectron/node_modules/electron-chromedriver
>node ./download-chromedriver.js/home/******/MagicMirror/node_modules/spectron/node_modules/electron-chromedriver/download-chromedriver.js:16
if (error != null) throw error

FWIW: the SBC is a Pine Rock64.
I’m willing to put in the work if someone can coach me through some of the pi-specific decisions.

@devinhedge did some digging. There is a bug in the install script.
The install script looks for the following: https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v1.7.0/chromedriver-v1.7.0-linux-arm64.zip
There is no v1.7.0 of electron. There is a v1.7.1 of Electron.
Electron v.1.7.0 was removed for some reason.

Is there any progress or different approach available for an installation on a Rock64?
Both 7.0 and 7.1 of the chromium webdrivwr are unavailable.Love to have this working on the Rock64.

@kennetht To bad that there is no response to this issue.
Although I have little to no knowledge on how to solve this, my gut feeling tells me some install script needs to be updated and pointed to a newer electron installation. -
@kennetht - Have you tried installing Electron manually with a version that exists and then running the
npm installprocess again? I don’t think the script requires a specific version of electron. The next version up will probably work. -
Stacy Webb changed the script yesterday to address this issue. I’ve tested it with a clean install, but still it didn’t work.
I have to try and manually install and see where there’s a problem.
Only my knowledge of Linux is not that good at this point in time.
