Build fails on Node 16.4 ARM M1

[stevenmunro]

I note there are new ARM builds but trying yarn add argon2 fails on my system.

Big Sur 11.3
Node v16.4.0

Output:

Odd, indeed there is no Darwin ARM64 build even though we have it in the pipeline

Meanwhile, try using npm rebuild argon2 --build-from-source to recompile it. You need a C++ compiler installed.

[ranisalt]

Indeed, we build for ARM64 and for OS X but not for OS X on ARM64 together. I don't even think it is feasible, as GitHub Actions run on x86 and the run-on-arm64 action does not support OS X. For the time being, you will have to rebuild from sources.

There's an open issue for M1 support on github actions: actions/runner-images#2187

It looks like there hasn't been any updates on it since December of last year.

[SirawichDev]

so any updates about arm64 ?

[partyconfetti]

anything?

[power-f-GOD]

Anything?

To solve this problem, I downgrade my node version to v14 by using nvm :

nvm install 14 
nvm use 14

[zikster3262]

any news ? Rebuild from source does not work unfortunately.

Still fails on node v16.7.0

[ranisalt]

No development from Github on supporting M1 for Actions, so no progress on this issue yet :(

The package sharp has an ARM build, it says MacStadium but maybe you can try it out? You can checkout the commit here: lovell/sharp@21d1a7c

Also seems like MacStadium is supporting open source projects! https://www.macstadium.com/opensource

Thanks for all the hard work @ranisalt! Any update on this?

Any possibility this could accelerate the timeline? Looks very promising and apparently usable today. hkratz/gha-runner-osx-arm64#2

Collection of some other related threads: gitx/gitx#289

Currently node-argon2 is the only dependency holding us back from support for Apple M1 platforms, so please let me know if there's anything we can do to help!

@slapbox definitely, will keep track of these in order to support ARM64 OS X as soon as possible.
