Unable to install ungit in node version 8.4.0

[TitaneBoy]

Hi guys..

I'm trying to install ungit with yarn (on Windows) with node version 8.4.0 and I got the following error:

error forever-monitor@1.1.0: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "0.8.x"
error Found incompatible module

With investigation, I found in the package.json of your module that you are using the version 1.1.0 of forever-monitor module (as the error described before). And within its (forever-monitor) package.json, it use only the version 0.8.x of node, and not higher..

From the version 1.2.1 of forever-monitor module, It uses a version of node higher than 0.8.x.

Is there a reason that you use the version 1.1.0 of this module dependencie ?

Thank you for your help

When node 8 came out, packages NPM has some very nasty bugs that prevented installation of some of the c lib dependent lower level libraries, such as phantom, electron and etc.

Will try to bump the node version and dependencies and give another go at it later.

Correction! for this ticket it has nothing to do with npm 5 issue we saw. Reason why forever-mointor locked was due to and old bug #531. Thus we've locked forever-monitor@1.1.0.

This actually has been causing lots of warnings and concerns but it didn't break so we largely left it alone as I don't have a window machine to verify #531 is indeed fixed for us.

I'm going to assume that it is fixed and will do a push. Can you please verify it is functional in windows?

@codingtwinky It will be a pleasure to test your fixes in Windows but I guess that your fixes is not yet released in npm because the last release of ungit is about 3 weeks. I will wait until it will be available on npm..

Thanks :-)

This is now fixed in ungit version 1.1.33 (see #971).
