    I already spend 2 days installing all VS versions...

    npm install oracledb --msvs_version=2015
    

    Return all lot of errors :

    [..]node-gyp\6.9.1\include\node\v8.h(18): fatal error C1083[..]
    

    Using

    npm install oracledb --msvs_version=2013
    

    Return a lot of warnings, compile but doesn't work properly after.

    [..]warning C4995: 'v8::Value::ToUint32'[..]
    

    This is my worst ever experience with a npm module. What a waste of time :/

    I wanted to add a comment to 2Toad's answer but stackoverflow doesn't let me. You can set the msvs_version globally with this command:

    npm config set msvs_version 2015 --global
    

    This saves you putting it in each projects config object.

    Setting version to 2015 didn't help for me. Try setting it to 2013 instead:

    npm config set msvs_version 2013

    or

    npm config set msvs_version 2015

    tl;dr

    Use the msvs_version param: npm install --msvs_version=2015

    What if the msvs_version param doesn't work?

    If the msvs_version param doesn't work, it's probably because you don't have a Visual C++ 2015 build environment installed.

    Install Visual C++ Build Environment

    Option 1: Visual Studio 2015

    1. During VS2015 installation, select "Custom". Or, if you've already installed VS2015, go to Windows' "Uninstall or change a program" > select VS2015 from the list > click "Change" > click "Modify"
    2. Check the "Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015" option, under "Programming Languages" > "Visual C++"
    3. Finish the VS2015 installation

    Option 2: Visual C++ Build Tools 2015

    As an alternative to VS2015, you can install the Visual C++ Build Tools 2015 released by Microsoft:

    1. During VC++ installation, select "Custom"
    2. Check the "Windows 8.1 SDK" and "Windows 10 SDK" options
    3. Finish the VC++ installation

    Use msvs_version

    Now that a Visual C++ 2015 build environment has been installed, you can tell npm to use it via the msvs_version param:

    1. Open PowerShell
    2. Use the msvs_version param: npm install --msvs_version=2015

    Config Options (not required)

    Optionally, instead of specifying the msvs_version at the command prompt, you can configure npm to always include the msvs_version param by adding it to your npmrc or package.json:

    npmrc

    Open PowerShell and run npm config set msvs_version 2015, which will add this param to your user npmrc file. Henceforth, every time you run npm install, as this user, the msvs_version=2015 param will automatically be included

    optionally, you can include the global flag npm config set msvs_version 2015 --global if you plan on logging in with different Windows accounts, and you want this setting to apply to all accounts on the machine

    package.json

    Modify your project's package.json file to include:

    "config": {
      "msvs_version": 2015
    }
    

    Henceforth, every time you run npm install, for this project, the msvs_version=2015 param will automatically be included

    1. Steps revised after further investigation inspired by Chuck's comment about the v120 toolset (thanks @ChuckWalbourn)
    2. Added config options
    3. Added VC++ Build Tools option
    4. Updated VC++ Build Tools link for official release

    I'll share this answer since none of the other fixes resolved my issue. I was having the same errors but setting the msvs param:

    npm install --msvs_version=2015

    was not solving the problem. I could see that it was looking in the wrong place for the toolset no matter what I did.

    Long story short I learned that MSBuild is now packaged with Visual Studio and no longer packaged with .NET. Sure enough I had this entry in the PATH variable:

    C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319;
    

    and consequently the wrong (old) version of MSBuild was being called. I removed this entry and added the following path which is relevant for VS2015:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin\
    

    Problem solved.
