[Bug] Unable to install on windows

Open ShadowLp174 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Describe the bug Reflectcord seems to be using a package called "medooze-media-server". Trying to install all the depencies resolves in a node-gyp error. This is due to medooze-media-server not supporting windows.

To Reproduce Try to run npm install on a windows machine.

Is there a way around using medooze-media-server? If not it would be nice to include a disclaimer, as it cost me a few hours of problem searching :)

I don't think there's a workaround for native windows, as medooze states that they only officially support Linux and MacOS X. You might be able to force install it by running npm install --force, but the voice server will crash because of broken dependencies.

Preferably, we should eventually split the voice server into a separate NPM workspace, so that you only have to install medooze if you plan on using it.

I tried wsl but there are some issues with that rn for some reason

MongoDB has a problem with wsl (it won't let me start it) and I am unable to use reflectcord... I'm running wsl2. What is Mongodb used for?

Mainly for storing converted snowflakes and user data that can't be replicated on Revolt (ex. notes)
