  • delete the ~/.node-gyp folder and then the ~/.npmrc file. Restart your computer. Then try again. Moreover, more details could be helpful. The print statement import sys; print "%s.%s.%s" % sys.version_info[:3] doesn't have parenthesis. Also try again after installing Python2.x Commented Dec 29, 2021 at 12:56

    @h3xh4wk It does not have a parenthesis because node-gyp 3.8 requires python 2.x. print became a function from statement in python 3.x :-) Commented Dec 29, 2021 at 13:01
  • There is also an option of upgrading the nodejs version. Higher versions of node-gyp support Python3.x. npmjs.com/package/node-gyp/v/8.4.1 Commented Dec 30, 2021 at 3:04

node-gyp is looking for a python installation for working and its not found on the PATH variable of your OS.

node-gyp requires python to be installed and available for usage. From the version documentation of node-gyp-3.8.0

  • You have to install Python 2.7
  • You need to install Windows Build tools

as additional dependencies. If you have already installed python-2.7, you can configure gyp with either of the commands below

node-gyp --python /path/to/python2.7

Or

npm config set python /path/to/executable/python2.7

Download and install python2. Python310 won’t work because they have slightly different requirements (like parenthesis with print: print() )

This is it! Python 3 was no good in my scenario.
npm error python is not a valid npm option
