To get this working we'll need to upgrade gyp to include https://code.google.com/p/gyp/source/detail?r=2013

Yep just tried with VS2015 as well - would love to see support for it.

So, it says pretty clearly in the docs that you have to have VS C++ 2012/2013 installed.

After doing this, I was able to build in VS2015 just fine.

[Dmitra]

I experience this issue having only VS2012/13 installed
The issue appeared after removing VS2010. That was done intentionally, because older VS versions doesn't support some modern features to build https://www.npmjs.com/package/sharp

[TooTallNate]

Please try node-gyp v2.0.0, which updated gyp to include MSVS 2015 support.

[Dmitra]

not sure about VS2015 installed alone, but for VS2012/13 on Windows8.1 the issue remains.
As soon as nodejs installation doesn't include node-gyp 2.0.0 yet, I replaced old version with 2.0 manually. But the issue is still there.

[Dmitra]

thank you very much, the issue is gone with VS2015 installation

👍
libuv is also updated to build with VS2015 in v1.6.0+

I'm trying to install the iron-meteor/iron-cli package, and I'm getting the same error as Dmitra. I think the problem might be that it's trying to use an old version of node-gyp, despite the fact that I do have V2 installed.(verified with npm list -g node-gyp). Referring to the highlighted node-gyp version in Dmitra's screen grab - it says V1.0.3 for me in my log. Any ideas why it's trying to use an older version of node-gyp?

[sisyfus]

Fixed! I think the root cause was that I had not updated npm using the proper process for Windows. (along with node-gyp having not been updated initially)
