I can't see whats wrong from that output. Could you please clone this repo and run npm install?

I also got this error, with the following output

Do you have fontconfig installed?

[ericandrewlewis]

I should note I ran the install script first, as suggested in the Mac OSX installation instructions.

I'm not sure if I have fontconfig installed. I tried installing it with brew and get this error:

This is the problem

pkg-config: command not found

You need pkg-config installed.

[thinsoldier]

Thanks

brew install pkg-config
brew install cairo
npm install canvas

Lots of warnings but no errors.

Now if only I could remember why the #$!@*% I was trying to install these things to begin with :'(

[ericandrewlewis]

Should leave this open while the documented and scripted install process doesn't work

[thinsoldier]

:(

Example code from readme doesn't seem to work properly for me.

Might be related to #628

[Greenycath]

I have the same error as before so after the install pkg-config

@Greenycath That log doesn't contain enough info to debug. Could you please clone this repo and run npm install?
