WSL Install error "Failed at the puppeteer@1.14.0 install script."

[lucrp]

Hi there! Thanks for this tool. It's nice to view Libertadores results in the terminal ! I'm using Windows Subsystem Linux and when running npm install -g libertadores-cli it gave me this error:

/usr/bin/libertadores -> /usr/lib/node_modules/libertadores-cli/bin/run

> puppeteer@1.14.0 install /usr/lib/node_modules/libertadores-cli/node_modules/puppeteer

I'm attaching the log file here. I'm new to Node and NPM, so I can't figure out what's wrong.

@lucrp are you behind a proxy? I think that might be affecting the download of Chromium, or maybe it was just and intermittent internet connection issue 🤔

I would recommend a couple of things:

1. Try re-installing it to discard connection issues.
2. If you have chromium installed maybe skipping chrome install might help, you can do that with:

$ PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=true npm install -g libertadores-cli

This last option might succeed the install, but the execution of the command might fail, let me know how that goes 😄

Hi there! Thanks for your response!
I tried to reinstall it, but I've got some errors:

I tried to install chromium, and it gives me the same error. I found this issue related to Puppeteer: puppeteer/puppeteer#375

So I installed chromium with $ sudo npm install -g puppeteer --unsafe-perm=true and did what you suggest $ PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=true npm install -g libertadores-cli. But when I run $ libertadores games:all I get this error:

Error: Chromium revision is not downloaded. Run "npm install" or "yarn install"
    at Launcher.launch (/usr/lib/node_modules/libertadores-cli/node_modules/puppeteer/lib/Launcher.js:119:15)
Fetching data... !
 ›   Error: An error occurred while retrieving data, please try again or report it!

I don't know how to fix that. I will try to install it in another notebook with Linux Mint and will let you know if I get some errors.

Thanks.

Locally I am only able to reproduce it if I turn off my internet connection just before chromium starts downloading, my best guess is that something is blocking the download of chromium.

Maybe a possible workaround is to simple manually download chromium and place it where it is expected to be 🙄. This comment says it worked for him 🤷‍♂️
