vlt Launches "reproduce": A New Tool Challenging the Limits of Package Provenance
vlt's new "reproduce" tool verifies npm packages against their source code, outperforming traditional provenance adoption in the JavaScript ecosystem.
This is a fork of http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-for-node/
It now works with the NodeJS 0.6.x series.
NodeJS v0.6.X npm
The first steps are to build and install Google's protobuf library. Make sure you have the right version by running "protoc --version" after the install.
wget http://protobuf.googlecode.com/files/protobuf-2.4.1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf protobuf-2.4.1.tar.gz
cd protobuf-2.4.1/
./configure && make && sudo make install
cd
This installs the npm package.
npm install protobuf
For Ubuntu, update library paths.
sudo ldconfig
For OSX, you might need to add the path:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/chris/node_modules/protobuf/build/Release:/usr/local/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
And test that it works... Run node, try
require('protobuf');
you should see:
{ Schema: [Function: Schema] }
As seen from the instructions above, this is my first attempt at packaging a slightly complex C++ module for NPM.
If you can help me simplify these instructions, please submit a patch.
Good luck,
Chris.
