      • @lynx-js/lynxtron-rebuild

      @lynx-js/lynxtron-rebuild rebuilds npm Node.js native modules for the Lynxtron runtime ABI. It corresponds to @electron/rebuild in the Electron ecosystem, but targets the Lynxtron runtime.

      Install

      npm install -D @lynx-js/lynxtron-rebuild

      Usage

      npx @lynx-js/lynxtron-rebuild

      Run it after installing or updating native modules. The tool may reuse compatible prebuilt artifacts, so a successful exit does not necessarily mean it compiled a new binary. Inspect its log and the loaded .node path, and exercise the module in the target Lynxtron runtime and packaged app.

      When To Use It

      ScenarioRequired
      Pure JavaScript npm packagesNo rebuild required
      Modules that depend on the Node.js/V8 ABIUse @lynx-js/lynxtron-rebuild when the binary does not match Lynxtron
      Node-API modules with a compatible prebuildMay reuse it; verify OS, architecture, Node-API version, native dependencies, and actual loading in Lynxtron
      Native modules migrated from an Electron projectReplace Electron ABI-specific binaries with Lynxtron builds; compatible Node-API prebuilds may be reused
      Lynx native librariesUsually built through npm run build:lynxtron instead of lynxtron-rebuild
