Windows 中 Electron 的 SQLITE3 安装错误

Question

I am trying to use SQLITE3 with my Electron app and finally create an executable file using electron-packager module.

I am installing sqlite3 using --build-from-source command, since electron-rebuild is not building the sqlite3 along with it. Below is my package.json

{
  "name": "dashboard",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "app/main.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "electron .",
    "package-win": "electron-packager . --overwrite --platform=win32 --arch=ia32 --icon=icons/win/icon.ico --prune=true --out=release-builds --version-string.CompanyName=CE --version-string.FileDescription=CE --version-string.ProductName=\"Serum Dashboard\""
  },
  "author": "Amar Shah",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "sqlite3": "^4.1.1"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "electron": "^7.1.10",
    "electron-packager": "^14.2.0"
  }
}

I executed the windows-build-tools and installing SQLITE3 using command npm install sqlite3 --build-from-source --runtime=electron --target=7.1.10 --dist-url=https://atom.io/download/electron --python=2.7

While running, its giving me below error

> sqlite3@4.1.1 install C:\serum-dashboard\node_modules\sqlite3
> node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build

Please help me out to solve this issue

Answer 1

You should try like this way

"scripts": {
            "postinstall": "install-app-deps"
    }

Answer 2

I was getting this error unpack_sqlite_dep 'Python2.7' is not recognized as an internal or external command .

I had Python installed, and had it in the path.

I also had the MS build tools installed, but in node there was a config setting to use a different version of the build tools than I had - I have 2017 and now 2019 but in the npm config file it was set to use 2015.

this is what I had in global npm config found in AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\etc :
python=python3.9
msvs_version=2015

there is also another local place for that in your user folder. I removed the python and msvs sections from both those files and now it works.

Helpful command to see what is in your npm config: npm config list
