Can't install node-sass@6 for node v16

This is my package.json after uninstalling sass node-sass and sass-loader because I changed my node version from 14 to 16,

{
  "name": "our-awesome-project",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "nuxt",
    "build": "nuxt build",
    "start": "nuxt start",
    "generate": "nuxt generate",
    "static": "NUXTJS_DEPLOY_TARGET=static NUXTJS_SSR=true nuxt generate",
    "build-and-start": "NUXTJS_DEPLOY_TARGET=server NUXTJS_SSR=false nuxt build && NUXTJS_DEPLOY_TARGET=server NUXTJS_SSR=false nuxt start"
  },
  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "pre-commit": "cross-env PRE_COMMIT=true lint-staged -r"
    }
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "core-js": "^3.19.3",
    "nuxt": "^2.15.8",
    "nuxt-i18n": "^6.28.1",
    "nuxt-purgecss": "^1.0.0",
    "vue": "^2.6.14",
    "vue-server-renderer": "^2.6.14",
    "vue-template-compiler": "^2.6.14",
    "webpack": "^4.46"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@nuxtjs/eslint-config": "^8.0.0",
    "@nuxtjs/google-fonts": "^1.3.0",
    "@nuxtjs/storybook": "^4.2.0",
    "@nuxtjs/style-resources": "^1.2.1",
    "@vue/cli-plugin-babel": "^4.5.15",
    "babel-eslint": "^10.1.0",
    "eslint": "^8.7.0",
    "husky": "^7.0.4",
    "nuxt-svg-loader": "^1.2.0",
    "postcss": "^8.4.5"
  }
}

According to this I should install node-sass version 6.0 enter image description here

But I'm trying: npm install --save-dev sass@1.49.0 node-sass@6.0.1 sass-loader@10.2.1

Also, read here to add --unsafe-perm so I tried: npm install --save-dev --unsafe-perm sass@1.49.0 node-sass@6.0.1 sass-loader@10.2.1

But it keeps failing, being the first error always this one:

npm ERR! code 1
npm ERR! path /Users/toniweb/Proyectos/our-awesome-project/node_modules/node-sass
npm ERR! command failed
npm ERR! command sh -c node scripts/build.js
npm ERR! Building: /Users/user/.nvm/versions/node/v16.13.1/bin/node /Users/toniweb/Proyectos/our-awesome-project/node_modules/node-gyp/bin/node-gyp.js rebuild --verbose --libsass_ext= --libsass_cflags= --libsass_ldflags= --libsass_library=

I tried removing node_modules package-lock.json and the same result

Of course, this is driving me nuts.. please tell me that anyone has an idea to try out

Solution

  • I think you are using ARM64 which is not supported by node-sass.

    You should replace node-sass with sass(Dart Sass) as LibSass is deprecated

    Just replace node-sass in your package.json file with sass. Both packages expose the same JavaScript API.

    npm uninstall node-sass
npm install --save-dev sass
