When trying to install some node.js packages (sqlite3 and socket.io in particular) using npm install socket.io on my Windows 7 machine with Visual Studio 2012 (and not 2010) I had some failures that looked like this:
C:\Program Files
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V110\Microsoft.Cpp.Platform.targets(35,5):
error MSB8020: The builds tools for Visual Studio 2010 (Platform
Toolset = 'v100') cannot be found. To build using the v100 build
tools, either click the Project menu or right-click the solution, and
then select "Update VC++ Projects...". Install Visual Studio 2010 to
build using the Visual Studio 2010 build tools.

To get around this on my machine I did this command to install the package:
npm install socket.io --msvs_version=2012
I found the answer
when having the problem with installing sqlite3 and it worked with socket.io as well.
These might be more permanent solutions to fix the problem:
Install Visual Studio 2010
Updating the npm internal copy to a newer version of node-gyp as described
(probably the better option although I didn't get it working but didn't try for too long)
19.1k56754
Another option is to change config instead of specifying msvs_version every time:
npm config set msvs_version 2012

我知道了，因为npm中install的git和所需要的不是同一个，大家需要去http://msysgit.github.io/下载Git-1.9.4-preview.exe安装包，安装后才可以。如果安装后仍然不行，需要重新设定Path环境变量，将安装后的bin目录加到Path中，然后在执行bowerinstallbootstrap就可以了。D:\Mooc&npm uninstall gitunbuild git@0.1.5D:\Mooc&bower install bootst...

尝试的解决办法：
一，sudo npm install -g node-gyp 安装node-gyp，然后再运行，警告与错误同上。
二，给/var/root改变权限，sudo chmod -R 777 /var/root 然后再运行，依然同上。
我无法解决这个问题，所以只发帖了，如果有人知道，还麻烦告诉一下，谢谢啦～
貌似以前遇到过，可以用 nvm 重装一下 node 试试？
不用brew来安装么？
亲，我现在用nvm 重装了node，问题依旧哎。
用安装包试试
1.npm cache clean --force
2.npm update
然后再安装。没遇过这问题，这是网上看到别人的说的。
我用安装包了，我把/var/root chmod 777 再安装的hexo，还是有警告，但是错误没了
我在Mac装pomelo也遇到跟你类似的警告，然后后面跟着一大堆错误。。。目前还没解决，晚上回去照你方法试试看，公司电脑只有window
能使用了吗？
嗯，目前可以使用了
权限啊，但是目前不清楚，哪个地方需要权限，所以我直接提升的root，完了又chmod 750了。

I'm trying to get working canvas on node js. I'm using Windows Vista. After basic approach npm install canvas failed (see error below), I have looked up some tutorials, here is what I have tried:
I have installed older Python (2.7.5) and add it to PATH (and remove Python 3.2. from PATH)
I have checked that I do have Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional installed
I have downloaded the 'all in one' GTK package from , unziped it in C:\GTK\ and add 'C:\GTK\bin' to PATH
log in console (after running npm install canvas in cmd):
log contains several warnings, I don't thing these are the problem - it is mostly something like 'conversion from double to float', and one error marked in red color:
d:\pathToApp\node_modules\canvas\src\PNG.h(5): fatal error C1083: Cannot
open include file: 'cairo.h': No such file or directory [d:\pathToApp\n
ode_modules\canvas\build\canvas.vcxproj]
And at the very end of log there is:
gyp ERR! build error
gyp ERR! stack Error: `C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\msbuild.exe
` failed with exit code: 1
gyp ERR! stack

gyp ERR! stack

gyp ERR! node -v v0.10.16
gyp ERR! node-gyp -v v0.10.9
gyp ERR! not ok

npm ERR! not ok code 0
After that, nothing appeared in node-module folder (no canvas subdirectory, npm after unsuccessful installation removed the subdirectory).
So I have also tried to download canvas module manually from github, unzip it in node-modules and then run node-gyp configure in node-modules/canvas with success, and node-gyp build, which unfortunatelly gave me the same error Cannot open include file: 'cairo.h'.
I have read everything that I found on this carefully. If you can suggest any help, please do it.
I managed to get this working on windows after a long arduous process.
I have a last couple of suggestions that you might try that I had on my list.
Copy all the dll files from c:\GTK to the canvas\build\Release folder.
Copy IEShims.dll from c:\program files(x86)\Internet Explorer to the canvas\build\Release folder.
Then run node-gyp build.
Best of luck.

You will need cairo library which is bundled in GTK
I ran into trouble with canvas while trying to install .
Here's what worked for me.
My specifics
Windows 7 x64
node-v0.10.26-x64
Make sure you read the README. There are necessary instructions here that I overlooked the first time around. For instance:
Run: pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0
Run: gtk-demo and verify that it works
Running pkg-config let me know that I needed to have &GTK Directory&\lib\pkgconfig in the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
I used this as a guide:
NOTE: I have Visual Studio
and 2013 installed on my machine, so I didn't have to deal with MSVC dependencies.
npm install canvas was always failing - and cleaning up after itself (the jerk) - so I grabbed the cached version from the npm-cache:
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\canvas\1.1.3\package. Copy this directory to your project's node_modules directory and rename it canvas. Enter the newly created canvas directory on the command line.
Run npm install nan.
Before you you can run node-gyp configure successfully, you need to verify your GTK path in binding.gyp
On line 5:
'GTK_Root%': 'C:/GTK', # Set the location of GTK all-in-one bundle
Now you can try node-gyp configure. If this is successful, awesome!
Now you can build it: node-gyp build.
That should do it. If you were trying to install paper, now you can. Hooray!
If this doesn't work, or you have something to add, don't be shy! Please comment so we can all benefit.
I have managed to get it working on my new Windows 8 machine, so I want to share some details that can be helpful to others.
I am using:
Windows 8.1 (64 bit)
Visual Studio 2013 (update 2)
Python 2.7.8
GTK for Windows 64 bit ()
node 0.10.28
node-gyp 1.0.1
Be sure to have Python 2 and GTK\bin in your path.
I have downloaded files manualy from
and saved it to node_modules/canvas.
Then I run node-gyp configure build in canvas directory. Errors occured. I had to edit binding.gyp () in order to match actual files in GTK folder.
For example:
line 59: "(GTK_Root)/lib/libpng.lib" -> "(GTK_Root)/lib/libpng.dll.a"
line 34: "(GTK_Root)/bin/libpng14-14.dll" -> "(GTK_Root)/bin/libpng15-15.dll"
There can be more, you should be able to read which files are making problems from error log and then edit the names to match files in GTK folder.
After editing binding.gyp, command node-gyp configure build finished successfuly. Although I am not able to work with some jpg files in Canvas (I have not tested it properly), png files work fine.
If node-gyp fails
It can happen to you, that every node-gyp command fails with message (possibly marked in red) similar to:
"...bcrypt_lib.vcxproj(47,46): error MSB4025: Could not load file project. An invalid character for the specified encoding., Line 47, position 46."
It it most probably because you have special character in the name of your user folder. (The fact, that Windows 8 automatically creates the name of your user folder from your first name is the lamest thing about Win 8).
2 quick solutions:
create another user with normal (without special characters) name a and run node-gyp configure build from that account
use this quick fix (it has worked for me):
Hope this helps.
on how to install the components required to run node-gyp which is in turn required to compile the code for canvas (and jsdom). I'm going to replicate it here in case the link dies. I have tested these instructions on my Win7 x64 machine and it worked first time.
On Windows XP/Vista/7,
According to the readme file in , to ensure that your system has a supported configuration, uninstall the following products and then reinstall them in the order listed:
Note: If you get error on installation, maybe
will help you.
On x64 environments, the last update in the list fixes errors about missing compilers and error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props" was not found.
