meteor version: 2.7.1

fourseven:scss version: fourseven:scss@4.15.0

After migration of Meteor project from Ubuntu to MacOS, I get the error during start of meteor (there is not problem with proxy, network or etc, because on same MacOS machine, when I will install directly with npm exactly same version of node-sass, it will install it successfully). Problem is, the dependency of fourtyseven:scss - node-sass, which cannot be downloaded.

I opened question also in Meteor forum [Meteor forum](https://forums.meteor.com/t/fourseven-scss-package-problem-during-installation-node-sass-on-macos/58002)

Logs:

...I tried to check the url of the package, which is using by npm and its: https://registry.npmjs.org/node-sass/-/node-sass-4.14.1.tgz and Meteor downloading package from: https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v4.14.1/darwin-arm64-83_binding.node Probably the package is missing on GitHub..

I'm encountering the same issue as above

[uzair120]

me too. same issue. any solution?

I experienced the same issue on my M2 Macbook Air.
While the error message would indicate something completely different, this can be solved by installing python 2 which is not installed on MacOS by default anymore.

brew install pyenv
pyenv install 2.7.18
export PATH="$(pyenv root)/shims:${PATH}"

fourseven:scss@4.15.0 seems to no longer depend on node-sass, if you are using version lower than 4.15.0, please upgrade.

Worked for me.

I'm trying to install the package on an effectively clean installation of Linux Mint 22 and cannot get it working. I just go from one node-gyp error to another by installing via brew and pyenv.

In my case I cloned a copy of this repository down to my machine in order to use a slightly forked version with the non-deprecated, pure-JS implementation:

1. Update the node-sass import statement in /plugin/compile-scss.js

// import sass from 'node-sass';
import sass from 'sass';

2. Update the node-sass declaration for the Meteor Package definition in /package.js

    // "node-sass": '9.0.0',
    'sass': '1.77.8',

At this point, one can create a symlink in their Meteor applications /packages directory, i.e.

~/source/meteor/app$ ls
client
node_modules
package.json
package-lock.json
packages
server
settings
tests
tsconfig.json

~/source/meteor/app$ ls -l packages/
meteor-scss -> /home/$USER/source/meteor-scss

At this point one can run meteor add fourseven:scss and Meteor will use the local package rather than pulling the published, official package from their artifact repository.

@67726e thanks that's what I ended up doing as well.
