Make compile results in error message

[mcclaudi]

I receive the following error message after the make compile command:

Compiling src/*.coffee to build.js

browserify -t coffeeify src/main.coffee -o build.js
/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
make: *** [compile] Error 127

I am not very versed in this so am stuck at this stage...

@mcclaudi what operating system are you on? do you use conda or brew?

[mcclaudi]

I was using brew

[tseemann]

brew install node is the first step.

Hi!
I have the same problem, but I am working on HPC. Since I`m a newbie in bioinformatics, maybe you can advise me on how I can proceed with installation further. Thanks!

Got the same problem on MacOS 15.1:

> make compile     
                                                               
### Compiling src/*.coffee to build.js ###
browserify -t coffeeify -t browserify-css src/main.coffee -o build.js
make: browserify: No such file or directory
make: *** [compile] Error 1

Also, Node is installed:

> brew install node            
                                        
Warning: node 23.5.0 is already installed and up-to-date.
To reinstall 23.5.0, run:
  brew reinstall node
