ninja failed with exit code 1 while trying to build

[ZeroTwoWeeb]

when building I get:

/home/${USER}/esp/esp32-wifi-penetration-tool/components/wifi_controller/interface/../ap_scanner.h:12:10: fatal error: esp_wifi_types.h: No such file or directory
   12 | #include "esp_wifi_types.h"
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

I tried building on windows as well as Linux

I'm having this issue too.

do you have ESP IDF correctly installed? Are you able to build some example projects from ESP-IDF?

[ZhengLinLei]

I cannot use idf.py v4.1 because I'm using MacOS but I solve it changing some code, updating the CMakeList for new version of idf.py (v5.x)

(And I'm using ESPS2, so the pre-built bin images cannot be used for me)

I had the same problem, in my case it was solved when I installed an older version of esp-idf (I opted for 4.2).

My system:
Edition: Windows 10 Home Single Language
Version: 21H2
SO: 19044.2846

Well this project was build with 4.1 and newer versions were not tested, nor are "supported". If you manage to make it work with newer version than 4.1 feel free to update README 👍

I slightly edited cmakelists.txt in components to work with esp-idf 5.1

Or you can download older esp-idf 4.1

Good Luck :)

Why don't you fork and merge request your changes?
