I can not install node-libcurl module

I am trying to install node-libcurl module on Ubuntu. To install, I am using the following command:

npm install node-libcurl --save

But I am facing this problem:

node-pre-gyp ERR! Tried to download(404): https://github.com/JCMais/node-libcurl/releases/download/v1.1.0/node_libcurl-v1.1.0-node-v57-linux-x64.tar.gz

Can anyone help with some solution for this problem?

Solution

  • After some time, I realized that the libcurl was not installed at the machine. I did not realize it before because the error messages does not mention that, so it was not clear.

    I solved with:

    apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

    And:

    npm install node-libcurl --build-from-source
