Steps to Reproduce

I'm using yarn install to install this library, but always encounter this issue, then I try npm install but this problem still happens. I then install the node-pre-gyp with sudo npm install -g node-pre-gyp, then running yarn install again, still failed. Can anyone tell me how to install it successfully? Thanks

Version of Realm and Tooling

  • Realm JS SDK Version: 6.1.6
  • Node or React Native: node 10.16.3, React Native 0.61.5

I am not able to reproduce it. Are you able to download the binaries? You can check it by running the following command:

curl -O https://static.realm.io/node-pre-gyp/napi-v4/realm-v6.1.6/realm-v6.1.6-darwin-x64.tar.gz

@kneth Thanks! But this doesn't work because the realm-v6.1.6-darwin-x64.tar.gz is downloaded every time when execute yarn install, so this is not the problem. The real problem is node-pre-gyp running failed, maybe this is a bug of node-pre-gyp, it happens very often. After I switch to a better network connection, and retry for a few times, finally it succeeds to install all the dependencies. Close it since it's probably a bug for node-pre-gyp, very annoying issue.
