npm install java: error MSB4019: 未找到导入的项目“D:\\Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props”

Question

We are trying to use the node java bridge to run a java application..

As mentioned in the requirement we have to install the java in the node project.

so i am running the

npm install java

I have already run the below command suggested in many forum like

npm install --global windows-build-tools
npm install -g nw-gyp

Getting below exception.

PS D> npm install java

java@0.10.0 install D:\\nodebrigde\\node_modules\\java node-gyp rebuild

Answer 1

Written initially in March 2020 for windows.

1. Run:

   npm install --global --production windows-build-tools@4.0.0

2. Add environment variable called "VCTargetsPath" with value of the path to folder of Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props. On my computer it is "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MSBuild\\Microsoft.Cpp\\v4.0\\v140".

3. try downloading package again

Edit:

I have come to know this may be solved by giving node the path to python. (I don't think the version matters?). Try running:

npm config set python path\to\file\python.exe
