Fails to install using npm v7.19.0 and node v16.4.0

[mviens]

Expected Behavior

Using the command listed on the main page, I would expect the package to be installed. "npm install iohook --save"

Current Behavior

The following errors are shown:

Possible Solution

Unknown,

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Run this: "npm install iohook --save"

Context

I cannot even try this library.

Your Environment

1. Windows 10
2. Node v16.4.0
3. NPM v7.19.0

• IOHook Version:
• Environment name and version (e.g. Chrome 39, node.js 5.4, electron 11.2):
• Operating System and version (desktop or mobile):
• Optional Link to your project:

In the iohook entry in the package.json, try changing the node target to 72.

You're using Node 16 which has ABI 93, currently iohook isn't prebuilt for that version which is why you get the issue. This is in the pipeline.

is there a timeline for node v16 support?
