nodejs14: Can't install/update with CLT but without XCode

Reported by: xeron (Ivan Larionov) Owned by: ci42
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc: posita (Matt Bogosian)
Port: nodejs14

Description

Error: Port nodejs14 requires a full Xcode installation, which was not found on your system.
Error: You can install Xcode from the Mac App Store or https://developer.apple.com/xcode/
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.

Probably due to use_xcode yes.

But it worked before. I have 14.5.0 installed without XCode and it works just fine. Some other changes triggered this inability to install the port on CLT-only system.

I removed use_xcode yes and updated to 14.7.0 without any issues.

Summary: Can't install/update nodejs14 with CLT but without XCodenodejs14: Can't install/update with CLT but without XCode

The nodejs14 port has always had use_xcode yes in it ever since it was created by copying and modifying the nodejs13 port. And it was added to the nodejs13 and earlier ports around February of this year. If it turns out that this was unnecessary, it can certainly be removed. The commit messages don't say why it was added but presumably it was done for a reason.

Since nodejs14 is distributable, you could have received a binary archive of 14.5.0 from our build server, on which we do have Xcode installed. Right now we don't have a binary of 14.7.0 available because the build system is busy building hundreds of ports for the preceding commit (which updated icu to a new version which necessitated rebuilding everything that links with icu).

How does one do that? I'm apparently not able to install from the binary archive:

% sudo port -N -c -b install nodejs14 @14.5.0

Posterity compiling from sources can adapt these instructions. Specifically, Step 3 would be:

$ cd devel/nodejs14
$ perl -p -i -e 's/^(\s*use_xcode\s*)yes(\s*)$/\1no\2/g' Portfile  # no longer require Xcode
$ git diff  # verify your change
$ sudo port install

git diff should show:

  • devel/nodejs14/Portfile

    diff --git a/devel/nodejs14/Portfile b/devel/nodejs14/Portfile
    index c61efcdd59f..0e0567ee644 100644

See perlrun(1) for details about the above perl command.

I have verified that the technique/patch described in comment:5 also works for @14.15.0.

You automatically receive a binary if one is available, unless you used the -s flag or set buildfromsource always in macports.conf. If a binary is not available, it builds from source, unless you use the -b flag or set buildfromsource never in macports.conf.

I'm apparently not able to install from the binary archive:

% sudo port -N -c -b install nodejs14 @14.5.0

Hm. I assumed that if a binary was available, MacPorts would forget about the Xcode check. If it does not, then I cannot explain your claim that "it worked before" since as I said "The nodejs14 port has always had use_xcode yes in it".

Note that port install does not accept a version number.

The technique described in comment:5 no longer works with either nodejs14 or nodejs15. Here is the configuration failure from my attempt with nodejs15, but nodejs14 behaves nearly identically:
