Yocto recipe fails to install npm package

问题

I have a recipe that installed some NPM packages that worked on an older version of Yocto.

After upgrading to sumo, the recipe fails with the following error: installnpmpackages/0.0.1-r0/temp/run.do_compile.7272: npm: not found | WARNING: exit code 127 from a shell command.

I tried using the developer shell and NPM does work in that case.

The do_compile from the recipe:

do_compile() {
        # Create a working directory
        mkdir -p ${WORKDIR}/scratch

        # changing the home directory to the working directory, the .npmrc will be created in this directory
        export HOME=${WORKDIR}/scratch

        # configure cache to be in working directory
        npm set cache ${WORKDIR}/scratch/npm_cache

        # clear local cache prior to each compile
        npm cache clear

        # compile and install node modules in source directory
        cd ${WORKDIR}/scratch
        npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install node-gyp
        npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install connect
        npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install socket.io
        #npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install sqlite3
        #npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install serialport
        npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install express
        npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install csv
        npm --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} --verbose install md5

        # clear local cache before we package. No need to copy over all this cache stuff; just need the modules.
        npm cache clear
}

Note sqlite3 and serialport are commented out as they did not work on the previous version.

What needs to be changed with sumo (vs morty) for NPM to function in a recipe?

Thank you in advance!

回答1:

I found a simple solution.

I created individual recipes using devtool add.

Here is the command used to create a recipe for the serialport npm module:

devtool add "npm://registry.npmjs.org;name=serialport;version=7.1.4"
