Can not find module scrypt from index.js

[criticalbh]

It looks like var scryptNative = require("./build/Release/scrypt") can not be found. If I replace this with var scryptNative = require("./build/Release/scrypt.node") it works.

Here is the error message:

    Cannot find module './build/Release/scrypt' from 'index.js'
      
      at Resolver.resolveModule (node_modules/jest-resolve/build/index.js:179:17)
      at Object.<anonymous> (node_modules/mymodule/node_modules/scrypt/index.js:3:20)

For right now, I am cloning a local copy of the scrypt repo and changing that line from the require("./build/Release/scrypt") to require("./build/Release/scrypt.node") and then adding 'node-loader' to webpack config and it works fine. However yes we will need an official fix for this :) Also some note that youll need node-loader

I created a patch file for scrypt to be used with patch-package

Is work on it in progress?

There is a replacement (scrypt-kdf) based on Node's native scrypt support.
