Pre-built binaries not installable for bcrypt@4.0.1 and node@12.16.3

[surendra172001]

Thanks for reporting a new issue with the node bcrypt module!

To help you resolve your issue faster please make sure you have done the following:

• Searched existing issues (even closed ones) for your same problem
• Make sure you have installed the required dependencies listed on the readme
• Read your npm error log for lines telling you what failed, usually it is a problem with not having the correct dependencies installed to build the native module

Once you have done the above and are still confident that the issue is with the module, please describe it below. Some things that really help get your issue resolved faster are:

• What went wrong?
• What did you expect to happen?
• Which version of nodejs and OS?
• If you find a bug, please write a failing test.

Thanks!

P.S. If it doesn't look like you read the above then your issue will likely be closed without further explanation. Sorry, but there are just too many issues opened with no useful information or questions which have been previously addressed.

Not sure if this will help. But after updating to NPM@6.14.5 and uninstalling and reinstalling Xcode command line tools via https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34617452/how-to-update-xcode-from-command-line I was able to successfully install bcrypt@4.0.1 with Node@12.16.3

I am also facing this issue and Its really frustrating. I am not been able to deploy apps because of this issue. If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know.

Here are my CI logs.

Edit: Its funny but it's working with node@12.6.1 but not with node@12.6.3

@savorymaxwell are you using macos?

NodeJS updated their OpenSSL library which broke needle which is used to download binaries.

As a workaround, do npm install request to let bcrypt use request to download binaries
