Problem installing node packages, node-gyp rebuild

I'm sort of a beginner in node, but I've been working on a discord bot with discord.js for a while. I wanted to host it on an EC2 server on AWS. However, when I try sudo npm install to install the packages, I get this:

ubuntu@ip-172-31-33-102:~$ sudo npm install

> [email protected] install /home/ubuntu/node_modules/ref
> node-gyp rebuild

The log mentioned in the last line is here.

I have looked around and while people have similar problems, none of the fixes work.

The full code for the bot is here if you need it. I just need to know how to resolve this error so the packages can install. Thanks.

If someone find this question via google (like me) here an answer: In my case it was a missing "g++" lib.

sudo apt-get install g++

did the trick for me.
