I tried running both of these commands:
npm install pcap --save
// package.json dependency

The error is caused by node-gyp trying to build a non-existing dependency socketwatcher@0.2.1, which isn't listed as an available version by npm view socketwatcher ( available versions: 0.1.0, 0.1.1, 0.1.2, 0.2.0, 0.3.0).
I'm eager to try out this library; are there any workarounds I can use to get around this install problem?
Environment:
- node v5.3.1
- npm v3.5.3
- Linux 4.2.0-23-generic (Ubuntu 15.10)
Attached:
Also failed on node v4.2.4, npm v2.14.12, Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
I'm digging deeper into socketwatcher. Could be related to #70 or btrask/node-socketwatcher#8.
Looks like commit 29737ce moved socketwatcher from a forked-fork (https://github.com/zerouid/node-socketwatcher) which is where the 0.2.1 came from.
The weirdest part is that it feels like this all worked last week...
This feels like a duplicate of #192. @rgrannell1, do you agree?
Yes @ecaron, it seems to be the same issue; I would have commented under that issue but I had only read the post, not responses to it.
Just to note, the workaround suggested of using:
npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git
fails with the following error:

The error warns about a missing header file pcap/pcap.h.
for the pcap.h error install libpcap-dev. Then installing via git works. npm install pcap still fails with various compile errors in socket_watcher.cpp http://pastebin.com/MGvhYkrm
The issue is resolved by this edit that changes socketwatcher dependency url from some branched git (that perhaps resolved a compile issue from the past) back to the central socketwatcher repository:
I have the same issue, did you find solution/workaround?
Currently I updated all my code to whatever format is being used almost recently and I'm installing via the commit hash I linked to. https://github.com/cyphunk/snifferjs/blob/master/package.json#L13 With that npm install works fine. Tested with ubuntu 14.04 lts, node 4.2.6 lts npm 2.14.12 node-gyp 3.0.3
This is what worked for me as a full install (including nodejs):
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) universe"
sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade
sudo aptitude install nodejs
sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev git
npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git
I'm on Ubuntu 15.10.
node v4.3.2
npm 2.14.12
Hope it helps someone.
Cheers!
like @cyphunk said,
for the pcap.h error install libpcap-dev. Then installing via git works.
on Arch Linux ,node v 4.4.4 npm 2.15.1
sudo pacman -S libpcap
then
npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git
it works,Hope it helps someone
npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git
worked for me, I'm on
OS X El Capitan
node v5.7.0
nam 3.6.0
however npm install pcap --save did not, just an update
fails on mac still.
@chovy Install worked for me with npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git on Mac OS X - you might need C++/Xcode installed to compile the native package. BTW: The npm package was updated 2 years ago, who could publish current master to npm? package.json shows 2.0.0 and npm 2.0.1.
Centos 6.4
node v6.10.0
npm 3.10.0
and
node v4.3.2
npm 2.14.12
after installing libpcap-dev,still don't work!
Why is this still an issue over a year later? Is this project dead?
@killerspaz It appears to be. I wanted to use arpjs, but it has this failed dependency.
Installing libpcap-dev worked for me.
sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev
Hi
Had issues with installing pcap and npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git from @rgrannell1 did it.
ubuntu 16.04.1
node v8.9.2
sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev
npm install https://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git
works
what about windows?
CentOS 7
yum install libpcap-devel -y
centos 7
yum install libpcap-dev -y
yum install libpcap-devel -y
npm install pcap
what about windows?
git clone git://github.com/mranney/node_pcap.git
cd node_pcap
download WpdPack_4_1_2 and extract it in node_pcap
copy WpdPack\Include and WpdPack\Lib folder to node_pcap
change bindings.gyp as below
{
"targets": [
{
"target_name": "pcap_binding",
"sources": [ "pcap_binding.cc", "pcap_session.cc" ],
"include_dirs": [
"Include",
"Lib",

]
},
'configurations': {
'Release': {
'msvs_settings': {
'VCCLCompilerTool': {
'ExceptionHandling': 2
}
}
}
},
}
]
}
modify pcap_session.cc like below;
mark lines as comment from 212 to 220
// fixes a previous to-do that was here.
//if (info.Length() == 6) {
// if (info[5]->Int32Value()) {
// if (pcap_set_rfmon(session->pcap_handle, 1) != 0) {
// Nan::ThrowError(pcap_geterr(session->pcap_handle));
// return;
// }
// }
//}
change include part, I dont remember some header file as below.
add #include <conio.h>
change line number 343 as below
//int fd = pcap_get_selectable_fd(session->pcap_handle);
int fd = pcap_fileno(session->pcap_handle);
chane line number 405 as below
if (pcap_sendpacket(session->pcap_handle, (u_char *)bufferData, bufferLength) != (int)bufferLength) {
finally

windows is definitely not supported for now, see #249 (comment). this should be closed
