node-gyp

Edit I upgraded node and ran "npm install -g contextify" It looks like it installed fine (no errors), but typing in "which contextify" returns nothing. Message while installing contextify: npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/contextify npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/contextify npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bindings npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bindings > contextify@0.1.6 install /usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/contextify > node-gyp rebuild CXX(target) Release/obj.target/contextify/src/contextify.o SOLINK_MODULE(target) Release/contextify.node SOLINK

My attempts to use node-gyp on a Windows 7 + Node.js platform have failed [3] when attempting to compile the standard "Hello World" example [2]. Note: node-gyp is failing in a similar manner [3] when attempting npm install contextify w or w/o the "-g", thus these could be related issues.

Is there a way to specify OS specific dependencies in a npm package.json file? For example, I would only want to install 'dbus' ( https://npmjs.org/package/dbus ) as a dependency for my module if the user is running Linux. I would have a different dependency for Mac and Windows. There's a possible good way of doing this, depending on your setup. npm package.json supports an os key, and also optionalDependencies os can be used to specify which OS a module can be installed on. optionalDependencies are module dependencies that if they cannot be installed, npm skips them and continues installing.
