Can't use frida with electron

Hi ! I'm trying to use frida in my electron app but I get this error when starting the app :
(node:21768) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: The module '/home/alexis/perso/dofus-kraken/node_modules/frida/build/Release/frida_binding.node'
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 72. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 80. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
Here are the version of the packages I use :
"electron": "^9.2.0",
"frida": "^12.11.11"
I'm on ubuntu 18.04 if it can help !
Thank you !
It commonly happens when your local NodeJS version is too high, or if you upgraded nodejs after frida-node install. In most of cases, removing frida-node, clearing npm cache, and reinstalling frida-node solves the issue.
I've clean my npm cache but it doesn't work better 😞 . I use node v12.16.3, it should work with frida because in an other project I also use this node version with frida but without electron and it works perfectly
Did you try to remove your node_modules folder and your package-lock.json from your project's root folder and to run 'npm install' ?
Yes I did
The issue is that you need to set two config options so the prebuild for Electron is fetched instead of the one for Node.js:
export npm_config_runtime=electron npm_config_target=9.0.0
Remember to wipe node_modules and re-run npm install after doing this, and be careful so these environment variables are set whenever you use npm in this context.
