Update - see bottom of post
I'm trying to setup jquery in node.js and having some trouble. As described on SO I'm installing jquery with npm install jquery and am executing my javascript as a script from the command line, rather than running it as a server.
A few points to note:
- OS X 10.7.3
- node.js version 0.6.11
- npm version 1.1.1
- node-waf version 1.5.16
So, from the directory that contains my node script, I npm install jquery. Terminal then goes off for 5 seconds and does a few things, particularly, download the modules and build contextify. At the end, the message is 'build' finished successfully.
Also, from the install log I see:
- htmlparser 1.7.4
- jsdom 0.2.10
I try to run my script at this point: ./script.js, but this is output:
Internal Contextify ERROR: Make sure Contextify is build with your current Node version.
To rebuild, go to the Contextify root folder and run 'node-waf distclean && node-waf configure build'.
So, I do the following:
$ cd node_modules/jquery/node_modules/jsdom/node_modules/contextify/
$ node-waf distclean && node-waf configure build
'distclean' finished successfully (0.002s)

Waf: Leaving directory `/proj/node_modules/jquery/node_modules/jsdom/node_modules/contextify/build'
'build' finished successfully (3.335s)
However, I still get the Internal Contextify ERROR when I run my script. Below is the full error message:
Internal Contextify ERROR: Make sure Contextify is built with your current Node version.
To rebuild, go to the Contextify root folder and run 'node-waf distclean && node-waf configure build'.

It does seem strange to me that not found is the output of Checking for node path when compiling, but I don't know what to make of it other than that it is unexpected to me.
If anyone can offer any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!
Update - 2/21/12
After some more research, I have been able to fix the oddity of node path not being found. After executing: export NODE_PATH="/usr/local/lib/node" in terminal, node path is found during the build process. However, after removing the jquery module and installing/building again, I am still in the same situation.
The contextify.node file exists in the specified release directory, but it still cannot be loaded by my script.
