Require in electron failed about frida-node

[snooze6]

Ok, It worked and immediately after that I realised that there is a frida-electron package which is exactly what I wanted in the releases page.
So I end up using electron 1.6.15 with the corresponding frida module. I simply created an .npmrc file and fill it with:

; userconfig /path/to/user/config/.npmrc
runtime = "electron"
target = "1.6.15"

My bad for not seeing the releases page.

Did you npm install the frida module with these variables on the command-line: npm_config_runtime=electron npm_config_target=1.8.1? You will also have to build frida-node for 1.8.x (see frida/releng/release.py for details) — you can use npm link afterwards to use it in your Electron project.

I've tried to require frida in nw.js which uses 8.6.0 and it has the same problem.

After that I tried to compile it using npm:

export npm_config_runtime=electron
export npm_config_target=1.8.1
npm install frida

Which gives me an error importing <frida-core.h>:

prebuild-install WARN install No prebuilt binaries found (target=1.8.1 runtime=electron arch=x64 platform=darwin)

Tomorrow I'll try to compile frida from source to check if it's possible to require it in something that isn't pure Node
