Errors in Icon-Shelf Project Packaging

Help
1

Package Name: icon-shelf

Version: 0.1.18

Project Homepage: <https://icon-shelf.github.io/>

Source Code: <https://github.com/Icon-Shelf/icon-shelf>

Iconshelf.nix: <https://gist.github.com>

Build Issues:

When running nixos-rebuild switch, the following errors occur:

npm ERR! code EAI_AGAIN
npm ERR! syscall getaddrinfo
npm ERR! errno EAI_AGAIN
npm ERR! request to https://registry.npmjs.org/yocto-queue/-/yocto-queue-0.1.0.tgz failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN registry.npmjs.org

npm ERR! Log files were not written due to an error writing to the directory: /homeless-shelter/.npm/_logs
npm ERR! You can rerun the command with `--loglevel=verbose` to see the logs in your terminal

It seems that there are issues with downloading the dependency yocto-queue from the npm registry. The error suggests that it may be related to DNS resolution or network connectivity problems.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Create iconshelf.nix like the one above.
  2. Run nixos-rebuild switch to build and switch to the new configuration.

Expected Behavior:

After running nixos-rebuild switch, the package should be built successfully, and the icon-shelf application should be available for use.

Actual Behavior:

The build process fails, and the package is not created due to the above-mentioned errors.

My knowledge of packaging is limited so any suggestions on how to resolve these issues would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance!

Thank you for your response. Your guidance allowed me to solve the initial problems, however, the emergence of new issues regarding other libraries has taken place, which I don’t currently have the time or knowledge to solve.

While my immediate requirement for the software has diminished, I maintain an interest in further discourses connected to it.
