Try install it using sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm...also take a look at #5

Feb 05 '19 09:02 MrDrache333

apt-get install libsodium and npm install -g pponce/homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm

Rasbian Stretch Build

autoconf is reeds de nieuwste versie (2.69-10). automake is reeds de nieuwste versie (1:1.15-6). g++ is reeds de nieuwste versie (4:6.3.0-4). libtool is reeds de nieuwste versie (2.4.6-2). libsodium-dev is reeds de nieuwste versie (1.0.11-2).

npm install -g pponce/homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm

Still got this error:

Static libsodium was not found at /usr/lib/node_modules/homebridge-apple-tv/node_modules/sodium/deps/build/lib/libsodium so compiling libsodium from source.

then a long compile start. and at the end

Same here, tried several things to get it working but no result at all.

Feb 06 '19 14:02 toppe

same here, but I am running the homebridge on Synology docker (x86_64-alpine-linux-musl)

Feb 09 '19 07:02 patpatmok

Also seeing Error: make nodesodium exited with code null using sudo and --unsafe-perm on CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core)

Feb 11 '19 08:02 VannaDii

Tried almost everything thats on internet. Also tried it on a fresh clear install of Rasbian Stretch on a different RPi. No luck at all.

Feb 12 '19 07:02 poudenes

MacOS. After a lots of try's ( homebridge are install already :

$ brew install libsodium

$ brew install autoconf

$ brew install libtool

$ brew install automake

( with sudo don't work ) $ npm install -g pponce/homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm

and $ homebridge ( to pair after edit .json )

Feb 12 '19 11:02 PatricioooAG

:( to bad. I'll give it up. searched the whole internet and tried every possible solution. But the error:

Pop-up all the time. So no Apple TV Support in Alexa for me then...
Im not that geek to solve this as well

After some trial and error I managed to get this up and running on both a Mac and a Pi:

On MacOS (I already had Homebrew installed):

brew install libsodium
brew install autoconf
brew install libtool
brew install automake
npm install -g pponce/homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm

Once I got it up and running on the Mac it paired to my AppleTV just fine per the ReadMe.

On PI:

sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
sudo apt-get install libtool
sudo apt-get install autoconf
sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm

Once I got it up and running on the Pi I encountered the issue mentioned in Issue 14 where the same AppleTV tried to pair more than once and crashed the plugin. I was able to get it working by manually pairing the AppleTV and disabling the PairSwitches per the notes in that issue.

Do u use docker? Cause i've run into the same problem over and over. Apparently my docker was alpine based so instead of saying: apt-get update i need to use apk update, apk add libtool inside of the docker container instead of on whole the system. When you run it on the whole system it will say that everything is installed. But not inside of your container.

I am running in the same problem, but the fix does not seem to work for me: oznu/homebridge:no-avahi on Synology docker (DS918+)

apk update apk add libtool apk add autoconf apk add automake still does not install - `In file included from ../src/crypto_sign_ed25519.cc:8: ../src/include/node_sodium.h:51:73: warning: 'v8::Localv8::Object v8::Value::ToObject() const' is deprecated: Use maybe version [-Wdeprecated-declarations] unsigned long long NAME ## _size = Buffer::Length(info[i]->ToObject());

@fugazzy i’ve got my setup working with another plugin: homebridge-dacp a lot easier to install.

May 03 '19 07:05 zabaya

OK I might try dacp

@zabaya

@fugazzy i’ve got my setup working with another plugin: homebridge-dacp a lot easier to install.

May 05 '19 11:05 fugazzy

Same f...g libsodium error here, I am stuck for 2 days now :-(

same bug on my side raspberry

Jul 18 '19 15:07 PierreBrisorgueil

For people still running into this, you must use node version 8. It's the only thing that worked for me.
