Error when installing flightplan

[atzy1090]

Hi guys, would appreciate if someone can guide me. I have zero experience in coding and am trying to install flight plan, but i get the following errors.

MacBook-Pro-3:~ AnsonT$ npm install --global flightplan-tool
/usr/local/bin/flightplan -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/flightplan-tool/bin/cli.js

integer@1.0.7 install /usr/local/lib/node_modules/flightplan-tool/node_modules/integer
node-gyp rebuild

Hey @atzy1090 looks like this repo doesn't support your version of node (13.5.0). It looks like you have installed using homebrew so this article should help you out.

I just checked using node@12 and it also failed, which means we need to target node@10. Following the steps in that article:

brew install node@10

brew unlink node

brew link node@10

brew link --force --overwrite node@10

Also install node-gyp by typing: npm install -g node-gyp@latest

In the project repo, delete your node_modules folder and then reinstall everything again using npm i

I've tested this using nvm which manages versions of node for me. I haven't tested with Homebrew but it should work.

Sorry, one note - I realised you were trying to install it globally. Similar steps above but you don't need to delete the node_modules folder and reinstall everything. Just try installing as you did before npm install --global flightplan-tool

Confirmed same issue and this re-install procedure works for homebrew. Thank you!
