No prebuilt found for arm64

[johnweland]

Issue or Feature

There seems to be a missing arm64 build of canvas, build from source fails on arm64 as well.

Steps to Reproduce

npm install 

npm install --build-from-source

Your Environment

• Version of node-canvas: 2.6.1;
• Environment: node 14.9.0; Ubuntu 20.04 (Raspberry Pi 4);

Logs

when attempting to build directly on my Pi4

Works fine on AMD64 architecture just not ARM64.

[StefanoCastro]

Leaving a dot here as I'm in the same boat currently.
Looking forward to an ARM64 build.

[PiSaucer]

I am also missing an ARM build, I don't think it is 64. I have a raspberry pi 3 running Raspberry Pi OS and I am trying to use a discord bot that required canvas.

FYI: was able to build the package without error (Raspberry PI 3, Ubuntu 20.04 arm64):

$ sudo apt-get update 
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev libjpeg-dev libgif-dev librsvg2-dev
$ yarn add canvas

Given today's announcement from AWS re ARM based Lambda being generally available, will the std npm deploy ship with an appropriate binary?

It is painful to use node-canvas on Apple Silicon.
Please provide prebuilt binaries for arm64.

[TJTorola]

Same issues on Arch aarch64, I fixed it by installing pango & cairo, so pacman -S cairo pango

[landsman]

I hit this when I did an upgrade my base image from: node:15.10-stretch to node:16.14-stretch.

In the image is already this:

RUN apt-get install -y build-essential libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev libjpeg-dev libgif-dev librsvg2-dev

to be able to build it from source...

The build was trying to download this URL:
#15 14.78 npm ERR! node-pre-gyp WARN Hit error response status 404 Not Found on https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/releases/download/v2.9.1/canvas-v2.9.1-node-v93-linux-glibc-arm64.tar.gz

[ninjahamza]

latest version of rsvp(https://github.com/tildeio/rsvp.js ) and then a global install of node-pre-gyp is required again followed by installing latest version of canvas. Worked for me.
Mac M1, Node 16.14.2

[ghost]

Any updates?

[laszlo-horvath]

Found a proposed solution here for M1 Mac. ✅

TL;DR:

1. brew install pkg-config cairo pango libpng jpeg giflib librsvg
2. Purge node_modules
3. Re-install the package

[mgol]

The issue shouldn't be closed since there are still no ARM64 binaries available. Can one of maintainers reopen?

[khalilsarwari]

Any update on this? Prebuilt arm images would be greatly appreciated :)

[indexxing]

I really hope the latest version will have arm64 pre-builds added eventually as I need to them to contribute to a project

[khalilsarwari]

This seems to be a drop-in replacement (minus some changes to font loading iirc) without the need for build during install for arm:
