Still doesn’t work for me : ( . I can still install with straight nodejs though on windows. Wish there was a way to copy my compiled nodejs version (in the node_module folder) and just copy into the meteor directory.
What is your windows node version? Maybe that differs to the included node from meteor. On OSX meteors is v0.10.36. Just try to locate the node binary inside meteor directory.
Actually, on serialport 1.7.1 it errors with “can’t find serialport”. Maybe meteor just can’t play nice with modules that have binaries in them :\
It seems to build for me for Windows in Meteor 1.1.0.2, meteorhacks:npm, “serialport”: “1.7.1”.
These instructions are similar to what I was using to try to get node-gyp installed. Only difference I’ve noticed is the serialport instructions doesn’t include adding python to the system environment variable.
I’ll see if I can give it a go on a few other windows machines and see if I need to do anything different.
