I’m trying to make a device with Beaglebone black, Spi screen and serial nfc. I’m using an old debian image required by the screen ( Linux 3 8 13-bone50 ). I’have my linux desktop displaying fine on my screen. For making my IHM, I’m intended to using NWjs as I 'm used to. But i can’t because of the arch i’m on (arm).



I discovered electron and saw that can recompile modules including native nodejs modules. The problem I encounter is that I can’t get working serialport in my project.



here is the full transcript of terminal informations:

Any idea of what append ?

"error: #error This version of node/NAN/v8 requires a C++11 compiler"

As your running wheezy, there really isn't a quick/easy option...

Build clang-3.4:

Install: devscripts (sudo apt-get install devscripts)

dget
http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/llvm-toolchain-3.4/llvm-toolchain-3.4_3.4.2-13.dsc

cd ./llvm-toolchain-3.4-3.4.2/

debuild -us -uc

install all "unmet build dependencies"

debuild -us -uc

(it will take a while, and lots of disk space (no eMMC) 8GB->16GB should be
fine)

Then just:

  export CC=/usr/bin/clang
  export CXX=/usr/bin/clang++

thanks for that fast answer but i get :

root@beaglebone:/clang# cd ./llvm-toolchain-3.4-3.4.2/
-bash: cd: ./llvm-toolchain-3.4-3.4.2/: No such file or directory
root@beaglebone:/clang# ^C
root@beaglebone:/clang# sudo dget Index of /debian
pool/main/l/llvm-toolchain-3.4/llvm-toolchain-3.4_3.4.2-13.dsc

root user and using sudo... two wrongs don't make it right...

call dget as a normal user, and don't use sudo for that..

Serial is actually really easy to do in Nodejs:
