Trouble with npm install zerorpc

[zx33]

There are some trouble while installing zerorpc.

Here are the outputs:
gyp ERR! configure error gyp ERR! stack Error: gyp` failed with exit code: 1

It shows that "No package 'libzmq' found", but I have installed and can get the version by using 'pkg-config --modversion libzmq'. So what should I do?

Here is the file of additional output - npm-debug.log.

In addition, os is mac os~

Sadly, I have no experience with MacOS, I can merely suggest to double check your library path?

[bombela]

Maybe try the solution mentioned at the end of #75?

I don't think it's the problem of version of Node....

npm ERR! node v4.3.2
npm ERR! npm v2.14.12

I will try to check my library path....

Thx~

Try brew install zeromq Seems like you need it installed first or else npm install of zerorpc will fail.

First, install Brew

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Then, install both zeromq and pkgConfig:

brew install pkgConfig
brew install zeromq

I have tried what I feel like is a million things, just trust me when I say use Brew.

I would also recommend you install node-gyp globally.

sudo npm install -g node-gyp

Then try rebuilding your project.

I'm trying to create a packaged app that uses zerorpc-node, but in the distribution I'm running into this same error. Shouldn't npm install the dependencies itself? @bombela @purplekrayons

Edit: the package https://github.com/zeromq/zeromq.js also uses the libzmq library right? But they don't have the same issue. How are they packaging it?
