Hello,

@ann1111 @fontchastick

as @ventsislav-georgiev said, it seems to be a bug related to node > v10.6.0.

I've tested with node v10.7.0 (switching with nvm) and the bug is also happening.

But downgrading to node v10.5.0 seems to fix it, for the time beeing i'm gonna use nvm and switch versions when needed ! Even if you have multiple project using differents versions of node, you should be able to run nativescript sidekick with this trick.

Also if you are encountering 'semver' error with nvm after installing new versions, there is a workaround : coreybutler/nvm-windows#302 (comment)

My nativescript projects are still in development so I haven't tried building the app for good, but for now i'm using the "Run on device" function (with local build) to an android smartphone connected to the computer, and it's working smoothly.

What build are you trying to make (ios or android ?) and what error do you get from it ?

[ann1111]

it gives me this error @thewebkit

Build failed. TypeScript compiler failed with exit code 1

@ann1111

I've just tried to build using the same settings as you (local build, with debug), and it worked (node 10.5.0). I'm using a Javascript template tho, not Typescript.

What version of node did you use to develop your app in the first place ?
Did you switch from another version to the (former) latest 10.6.0 ?
I think the best thing to do would be downgrading back to the node version that worked for your previous build. Also posting the full logs of this new error my help other understand your problem and help you out !

[ann1111]

Yes its working fine after downgrading thanks
