Error while intalling node-sass

[VaJoy]

win7 64bit,iojs v1.0.1
as intalling node-sass it says:

Can not download file from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sass/node-sass-binaries/v2.0.1/win32-x64-node-1.0/binding.node

should I gotta update iojs or other method to fix it?

With node.js v2.0.1, only iojs v1.2.0 is supported. See node-sass-binaries release notes: https://github.com/sass/node-sass-binaries/releases/tag/v2.0.0. Also readme: https://github.com/sass/node-sass-binaries#compatibility.

@am11 I updated iojs to 1.2.0 but still failed

Yes that is a big ordeal in Windows for multiple reasons. We have taken care of for upcoming release for Linux and Mac completely, but for Windows, the workaround is still half-way (and if you are not using nvmw, you will face this kind of issue in future).

The workaround is to use iojs to trigger npm explicitly:

:: this is cmd
:: 
:: nvmw install iojs-v1.2.0
:: nvmw use iojs-v1.2.0
::
mkdir /temp; cd /temp
npm install npm
iojs node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js install node-sass
:: success!
iojs
:: this is io.js interactive console (REPL)
> require('node-sass').renderSync({data: '.myClass { float: right } '})

@am11 or u mean that I need to install iojs with nvmw install iojs-v1.2.0 ?
I gotta try it, wait a min...

[VaJoy]

@am11 deal it with nvmw, THX A LOT!!!!
