Answer 1

Using npm install bcrypt command can't resolve the issue for me.

finally, i fixed commands below and my issue resolved.

npm install node-gyp -g
# bcrypt reqired node-pre-gyp
npm install -g node-pre-gyp
npm install bcrypt -g

npm install bcrypt --save

node -v v8.16.1

npm -v 6.4.1

Answer 2

I was using bcrypt@3.0.6 and @types/bcrypt@3.0.0 with node 13.7.0 environment. I was running into error cannot find binding .../node_modules/../bindings/bcrypt_lib.node

I ran this to resolve issue:

• npm i -g node-gyp
• npm i bcrypt --save

This upgraded to bcrypt@3.0.8

Answer 3

• Node Version vs Bcrypt Version
• 0.4 <= 0.4
• 0.6, 0.8, 0.10 >= 0.5
• 0.11 >= 0.8
• 4 <= 2.1.0
• 8 >= 1.0.3
• 10, 11 >= 3
• 12 >= 3.0.6

I had the same issue, after I installed the bcrypt particular version depends on your node version, it started to working.

In my case my nodeJS version was 12.3.0 , so I installed by specifying the version " npm install bcrypt@3.0.6."

I hope it will resolve the issue.

Answer 4

It seems that bcrypt was depreciated at version 1.0.3 as it was susceptible to a wrap-around bug. NPM recommends installing version 2.0.0.

So, if you wish to save it, just run the command:

npm install bcrypt@2.0.0 --save

Answer 5

First delete bcrypt module from your node modules. Then try the below steps:

1) npm install node-gyp -g

2) npm install bcrypt -g

3) npm install bcrypt -save

This will definitely resolve the issue.

Answer 6

For me the issue resolved by below steps: Nothing above solved my issue, 1) rm -rf node_modules in your project directory 2) rm package-lock.json 3) just check you have your package.json file now 4) npm install

Thats it, you will get bcrypt installed properly. Hope this helps.
