What to do if npm node gyp fails

npm node gyp failed because the versions of "node-gyp.js" and "Node.js" did not match. The solution: 1. Clear the node cache through "npm cache clean -f"; 2. Pass "npm install -g n" installs the n module; 3. Install the "node v12.21.0" version through the "n v12.21.0" command.

What should I do if npm node gyp fails?

npm install reported node-gyp related errors

When I was building a vue project, I reported node-gyp build related errors. The error message is as follows

1 error generated.
make: *** [Release/obj.target/binding/src/binding.o] Error 1
gyp ERR! build error

After various attempts, I discovered that

The reason is that node-gyp.js does not match my Node.js version, and my Node version is too high

After attempts After discovering that Node was downgraded to v12.21.0, the build was successful.

Commands related to downgrade operations:

# 查看当前node版本
node –v
# 清除node缓存
npm cache clean -f
# 安装n模块
npm install -g n
# 安装v12.21.0版本
n v12.21.0
# 查看当前node版本
node –v
