Unable to build on macOS Apple silicon

Development

Hey, I followed the steps from BUILD.md in order to setup development environment.
However, after yarn install from the root directory, I am facing an error as:

Hey Aryan,

I faced the same issue on Mac.
You can fix it by installing vips.

brew install vips
3

add

  "resolutions": {
    "minipass": "3.1.6"
  }

in package.json

Refer here Facing a build error on Mac - #10 by shreyaansjain06

Yup, I tried that as well but in vain.

Unfortunately, I am facing the same error after this.
Before creating a new topic, I read the entire thread - Facing a build error on Mac but couldn't figure out in my case.

Here's the set of steps I took -

  • brew install cocoapods
  • yarn install
  • The later step failed as there was a issue with sharp saying that it couldn't be installed properly due to vips package missing out.
  • Hence, brew install vips
  • After these steps, I am facing the issue listed above (in topic description).

Wow! I re-cloned the repository and it's successfully built now! Thanks :slight_smile:
