I can't seem to install canvas.

I have tried the steps outlined in the answer here: node-gyp error when running npm install

sudo npm uninstall -g node-gyp
sudo npm install -g node-gyp
brew install pkg-config cairo libpng jpeg giflib
npm i canvas

But get the following error:

I have also tried installing canvas using yarn add canvas, but it appears to give the same error.

Restarting my computer doesn't appear to have any effect either.

I am using a Mac M2 running Ventura 13.2.1, with node version v16.18.0 and npm version 8.19.2

This work form me

arch -arm64 brew install pkg-config cairo pango libpng jpeg giflib librsvg

And after that try to install canvas

Based on this link:

  • I appear to be getting the same error as before unfortunately. Should I try uninstalling or removing anything first before running what you've suggested? – Starman May 30 '23 at 21:48
