Wiring pi wont compile

[beniroquai]

When I do "npm install wiringpi", after a while I get this output:

Im using wheezy and wanted to install heimcontrol.js. Any idea what could be wrong? thank you!

I’ve updated the wiring-pi dependency to use version 2.0.0 in the hope that that’ll fix it. It should work, but I haven’t tested it at all. (I don’t have a Pi ready for testing right now, nor much time.)

If you try it, please report back either way. :)

The problem is wiring-pi 2.0.0 is not ready for node 0.12.x, wiring-pi 2.1.0 will be released in the next weeks with support for node 0.12.x, raspberry pi A+ and raspberry pi 2.

Cool !
I have same problem, i will downgrade my Node.js.
And try to install again.

Had similar problems and after downgrading to node v0.10.36 it all worked fine (https://node-arm.herokuapp.com/node_0.10.36_armhf.deb). Well apart from Raspberry Pi 2 not being supported yet but that is in the works I read.

For NodeJS 0.12.x :

Before installing piSwitch (if already installed, remove it)
Install this version of WiringPi : npm install git+https://git@github.com/nekuz0r/wiring-pi.git#incoming-node-v0.12.x
(WiringPi/WiringPi-Node#20 (comment))
Install piSwitch npm install piSwitch

And now...it works fine on NodeJS 0.12.x

Hi Tom,
Is it still, currently the case that you have to install a different version of WiringPi, as above ^ ?
I still can't get the darned thing to work.
Thanks,
Rich.

@R1CH-T: I’m not sure, I haven’t used PiSwitch in a while. I might get to it this weekend or next – I’ve been meaning to set up it up again in my new appartment, but haven’t had the time.

Thanks, Tom. :)
