I'm trying to set up a DashDB datasource on a Loopback project.

I am running node -v 6.10.1 & npm -v 3.10.10

I get the following error when trying to initialize a new Dashdb datasource:

npm ERR! argv "/Users/bannastre/.nvm/versions/node/v6.10.1/bin/node" "/Users/bannastre/.nvm/versions/node/v6.10.1/bin/npm" "install" "loopback-connector-dashdb@^1.0.0" "--save"
npm ERR! node v6.10.1
npm ERR! npm  v3.10.10
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE

npm ERR! ibm_db@1.0.2 install: `node installer/driverInstall.js`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Failed at the ibm_db@1.0.2 install script 'node installer/driverInstall.js'.

So I try setting the loopback connector using npm install loopback-connector-dashdb --save, which runs ok.

When I try and run the app I get an error. It looks like this beause of the odbc_bindings.node file or libdb2.dylib.

When I run node . the following error is thrown:

Error: dlopen(../projects/loopback-getting-started/node_modules/ibm_db/build/Release/odbc_bindings.node, 1): Library not loaded: ../projects/loopback-getting-started/node_modules/ibm_db/installer/clidriver/lib/libdb2.dylib

Am I missing a package?

This looks like a native node issue. Could you try running the following command from your app:

npm cache clean && npm install

Turns out it's to do with having a space in the path (It's on a ~/Google Drive/projects path) - The ibm_db package Release/Makefile can't handle that

There's an issue raised here: Using Make $(dir) or $(notdir) on a path with spaces
