[BUG] Dashy will not compile no matter which version of NodeJS I have.

[hackdefendr]

Environment

Self-Hosted (Bare Metal)

System

Debian 12 Arm64 host, Debian 12 Arm64 VM, NodeJS 17, 18, 20, LTS

Version

git

Describe the problem

I am attempting to run yarn and no matter which version of NodeJS I have active globally the yarn process crashes as shown below.

With LTS: error @achrinza/[email protected]: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "8 || 10 || 12 || 14 || 16 || 17". Got "20.17.0" error Found incompatible module.

With latest NodeJS 18: error @achrinza/[email protected]: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "8 || 10 || 12 || 14 || 16 || 17". Got "18.20.4" error Found incompatible module.

With latest NodeJS 17: error [email protected]: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=18". Got "17.9.1" error Found incompatible module.

Is there a specific version I should use to get past this?

Additional info

I had this all running under Docker, but wanted to explore running this on a bare metal or VM so I can develop widgets n stuff and also to run this in multi-user mode a bit easier. This version of Dashy was pulled this morning from Git.

The same here. I am trying on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTC now. I tried on Debian 11, 12. Both on Intel chipset. I tried many version of Node too. Anyway, I was not able to get around this reported error in decencies.

Git tag for this is 3.1.1

[radek-dev]

So, checking about the previous tag in git fixes the issue for me. git checkout 3.0.1 This is not the actual fixed though.

I stumbled across these steps in the node-ipc issue for the same error.

This looks good. I haven't thought about doing this.

I think you just need to add --ignore-engines after yarn. For reference, this is how I build the app (tested in nodejs:18 and nodejs:24 containers):

corepack yarn --ignore-engines
corepack yarn build --mode production
