Installing node-gyp on Arch is torture. The only OS node-gyp actually supports is Debian.
-
use this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sass
Same interface, no node-gyp, faster -
@lorentz why not make a debian vm and run that stuff on there?
I split my projects into vms so i don't need to deal with whatever bullshit one OS has over the other. -
@thebiochemic I also like docker, my main problem is actually that because of gyp I can't build a lightweight container with arbitrary trivial capabilities like sqlite.
By gods, being forced to install node-gyp on windows feels like a very cruel version of hell. Why we haven't yet migrated from node-sass is beyond me.
