Does not install on macOS

[fulldecent]

It appears this application is shown as working on macOS. However, it will not install.

Could instructions for macOS please be provided if this is a supported platform?

Can you give details on your environment (OS, npm, and node versions)? Our CI run tests on macos-latest (which is [documented[(https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments) as macOS 10.5) with npm v14, 15, 16.

I am using a new Apple Silicon iMac with fresh Xcode, brew, node and NPM.

❯ node --version
v16.3.0

npm --version
7.18.1

It appears the CI tests are only using the old Intel processor.

Root cause appears to be here Automattic/node-canvas#1733

Thanks for the info. If the issue is with a dependency, we'll have to wait for them to fix the package. Meanwhile, can you run the package from docker? Or perhaps use the online portals?

[fulldecent]

Thank you, the online portal is very helpful for me to see what was going on. This fully addresses what I was looking for.

I have been working on a competing blockchain-based project, https://genobank.io/certificates/, and wanted to see how SMART Health Cards works. Looks great!

Let's keep this issue open until we get the SDK working on Apple M1; we might ping you again for a quick test once the canvas dependency has been fixed.

Sounds good

I got access to a Mac Mini with a M1 processor; I can confirm I see the same error (with Darwin Kernel Version 20.5.0, npm v7.19.1, Node.js v16.5.0).

The issue of failed canvas compilation should no longer occur as the canvas package has been replaced in the project.
Scanning the package-lock.json file shows an optional peer-dependency still exists within the jdom package (a dependency of Jest) - it appears jsdom will use canvas, if installed, but will not install it as a dependency.
