Advanced Bitcoin Scripting - Discussion

enrique179 · June 16, 2021, 8:17pm

the commands I run are npm install --global windows-build-tools in PowerShell as Administrator, then:

npm init
npm install https://github.com/bcoin-org/bcoin

after that I run node address.js
Much like in the video?

Did you get any errors when doing install? I have tried myself and it installed bcoin as expected. You’re missing the library in node modules.

enrique179 · June 18, 2021, 4:28pm

hm, I get this error but not sure what I can do about this? maybe manual installation?

npm install https://github.com/bcoin-org/bcoin

Can you try installing bcoin using the instructions from the repo? Clone the repo in the node modules folder to be able to import libs.

https://github.com/bcoin-org/bcoin#install

enrique179 · June 19, 2021, 1:24pm

yes I actually tried that but it leads to this error messages.
Are there alternatives to node maybe?

Alko89 · June 20, 2021, 8:58am

It could be an issue with your node install. You did install the 64bit version of node and have a 64bit version of windows?

enrique179 · June 20, 2021, 4:15pm

Yes 64bit Windows and 64bit NodeJS version. I uninstalled version v14.17.1 and installed v16.3.0 but still the same.

Is there a step by step written instruction somewhere? Maybe doing it like that I can see what I’m doing wrong

Alko89 · June 21, 2021, 6:53am

I think its best to use the LTS version for node. You can try these instructions that was made by one of our students a while ago: Advanced Bitcoin Scripting - Discussion

enrique179 · June 25, 2021, 2:00pm

this means that the environment variable for Python is not properly set and it’s not working because of that? (following the instruction in the post you referenced)

Ok so the Python version seems to be recognized now and using the older Node.js version I can install bcoin, but when running npm rebuild I get this error. What does this mean - there seems to be an issue with npm again?

when using Ubuntu it seems to install bcoin properly but instead glibc 2.28 is not found, when installing glibc from source it’s 2.31 which is not backward compatible. This is what happens on Ubuntu:

Alko89 · June 26, 2021, 8:13am

You have to install build essentials, you don’t have to compile it from source. You can do this by running apt install build-essential

enrique179 · June 26, 2021, 8:24pm

hm not sure I seem to be getting the same error even after running that?
somehow the binding doesn’t work

Alko89 · June 27, 2021, 8:45am

Try removing the node_modules folder and package-lock.json and reinstalling bcoin after you installed the package. I tried bcoin on Arch and Ubuntu and worked fine with both systems.

enrique179 · June 27, 2021, 12:25pm

it’s not working, I did as you suggested and followed this order here Advanced Bitcoin Scripting - Discussion and yet it doesn’t work.
Should I set up a new VM and start over from scratch?
Why is it so difficult to find the mistake if it’s supposed to be a simple task?

enrique179 · June 27, 2021, 1:17pm

hallelujah it’s finally working, Alko89 thank you so much for your patience and support, thanks a lot really appreciate!

Alko89 · June 28, 2021, 6:15am

Hey, glad you made it work bcoin has issues often, not sure why its so sensitive. Can you tell me what you did to make it work?

enrique179 · June 28, 2021, 3:48pm

just as indicated, but I reinstalled a new Ubuntu 20.04 on VMWare and ran

sudo apt install build-essential
mkdir multisig_project
multisig_project
sudo apt install npm
npm init
npm instal bcoin
touch address.js
sudo apt install vim
vim address.js 
node address.js

I used vim instead of Sublime but that pretty much made it work

Alko89 · June 29, 2021, 6:46am

It shouldn’t matter what text editor you use. You might have broken something when trying to use a custom version of glibc instead of the one provided in the OS repos. This library is quite essential and requires to be the proper version for the system to function properly.
Its installed by default but Ubuntu doesn’t have the dev headers installed for most packages by default (you notice this by the *-dev or *-source in the package name). By installing it yourself you might have gotten a missmatch between those…just a guess though
