Installing firebird driver for node

I'm trying to install the firebird driver for node under windows.

When I try npm install firebird, it errors out with the following error:

'node-waf' is not recognized as an internal or external command

I tried downloading the windows experimental build from https://github.com/xdenser/node-firebird-libfbclient but that also fails with the following error:

node test.js

Unable to load shared library C:\firebird\node_modules\firebird\build\release\binding.node

How do I get the firebird driver installed for node?

I've the same error and the fbclient is definitely installed. (even used instclient and it confirmed fbclient.dll in win\sys32)

Error: Unable to load shared library D:\node-firebird-win\Release\node_modules\firebird\build\Release\binding.node

Also, don't see a package.json file (guess that's not mandatory). Tom


EDIT: de-installed, then re-installed Firebird (2.1.4 x64) and all ok now.

You have to install Firebird client too. README on Github fixed.
