Needs Review

I recommend reviewing this upgrade before merging because it introduces a hard runtime incompatibility: node-gyp now requires Node ^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0, but the project's package.json declares engines.node: >=20, meaning any developer or CI environment running Node 20 will encounter an engine constraint failure. This is the most critical blocker and requires explicitly raising the project's engines.node minimum and updating all CI, Docker, and local development environments to Node 22 LTS or higher. A changelog-confirmed breaking change also removes support for the python npm config setting — while no .npmrc file using this setting was found in the repository, any developer who set this via their global npm config to point Python at a custom path will see breakage. On the positive side, this upgrade resolves a high-severity vulnerability in node-gyp's bundled tar dependency, delivers 12 new features and 6 bug fixes, adds retry logic for failed downloads, replaces deprecated APIs, and adds Visual Studio 2026 support for native module compilation.

Tip: Comment @​fossabot fix to attempt automatic fixes.

Fix Suggestions

We identified 4 fixable issues in this upgrade.

• Update engines.node in package.json from '>=20' to '>=22.22.2' to match node-gyp 13.0.0's engine requirement of '^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0'. This is a breaking change for the project — all CI environments, Docker images, and developer machines must be updated to Node 22.22.2+ before or alongside this change. Verify that all other dependencies are compatible with dropping Node 20 support.
  Files: package.json
• Update all CI workflow files and Dockerfiles to use Node 22 LTS (>=22.22.2) instead of Node 20. Search for any references to 'node-version: 20' or 'NODE_VERSION: 20' or 'node:20' in .github/workflows/ and Dockerfile* and update them accordingly. This must be done after the decision to raise the minimum Node version.
  Files: .github/workflows/
• Search for any .npmrc files or npm config references to 'python=' setting in the repository. Run: grep -r 'python=' .npmrc .github/ Dockerfile* || echo 'No python config found'. If found, remove the 'python' config line — node-gyp 13.0.0 no longer supports the 'python' npm config setting. The replacement is to set the PYTHON environment variable or use the --python command-line flag instead.
  Run: grep -rn 'python=' .npmrc .github/ Dockerfile* 2>/dev/null || echo 'No python npm config setting found in repository'
  Files: .npmrc
• Verify whether node-gyp is actually needed as a direct devDependency. Search for direct invocations: grep -rn 'node-gyp' package.json scripts/ Makefile* binding.gyp *.gyp 2>/dev/null. The impact analysis notes that @​abandonware/bluetooth-hci-socket bundles its own node-gyp 10.3.1. If the top-level node-gyp is not directly invoked in any build script or binding.gyp file at the project root, it may be removable as a direct devDependency (npm will use the bundled version for native addon compilation).
  Run: grep -rn 'node-gyp\|binding\.gyp' package.json Makefile* *.gyp scripts/ 2>/dev/null; find . -maxdepth 1 -name 'binding.gyp' 2>/dev/null || echo 'No direct node-gyp usage found at project root'
  Files: package.json

# Fix Dependency Upgrade Issues: node-gyp 13.0.0 (PR #176)

This PR upgrades `node-gyp` to 13.0.0 in the `minidrone-js` repository. The upgrade includes security fixes (high-severity `tar` vulnerability), 12 new features, and 6 bug fixes — but it introduces **2 breaking changes** that need to be addressed.

## Context
- **node-gyp 13.0.0** now requires Node `^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0`
- The project currently declares `engines.node: >=20` in `package.json`
- The `python` npm config setting is no longer supported (replaced by `PYTHON` env var or `--python` CLI flag)
- The sub-dependency `@​abandonware/bluetooth-hci-socket` bundles its own `node-gyp@​10.3.1`

---

## Task 1: Determine if node-gyp is actually needed as a direct devDependency

Before making any other changes, check whether `node-gyp` is directly used:

1. Search for direct invocations:
   ```
   grep -rn 'node-gyp' package.json
   ```
   Check the `scripts` section of `package.json` for any `node-gyp` commands.

2. Check for native addon build files:
   ```
   ls binding.gyp *.gyp 2>/dev/null
   ```

3. Check Makefile or other build configs:
   ```
   grep -rn 'node-gyp' Makefile* scripts/ 2>/dev/null
   ```

**If node-gyp is NOT directly invoked** (no `binding.gyp` at project root, no npm scripts calling it), it may be removable as a direct devDependency since `@​abandonware/bluetooth-hci-socket` bundles its own copy. In that case, consider removing it from `devDependencies` in `package.json` and skip the remaining tasks.

**If node-gyp IS directly needed**, proceed with the fixes below.

---

## Task 2: Update `engines.node` in `package.json`

**File:** `package.json`

Change the `engines.node` field from `>=20` to `>=22.22.2` to match node-gyp 13.0.0's minimum requirement.

```json
"engines": {
  "node": ">=22.22.2"
}
```

⚠️ This is a breaking change for the project — it drops Node 20 support.

---

## Task 3: Update CI workflows to use Node 22 LTS

**Files:** `.github/workflows/` (all workflow YAML files)

Search for and update any Node version references:
- `node-version: 20` → `node-version: 22`
- `node-version: '20'` → `node-version: '22'`
- `NODE_VERSION: 20` → `NODE_VERSION: 22`

Also check for Node version matrices and update them to only include supported versions (`22`, `24`, etc.).

Run this to find all references:
```
grep -rn 'node.*20\|NODE.*20' .github/workflows/
```

---

## Task 4: Update Dockerfiles (if any)

Search for and update any Docker Node image references:
```
grep -rn 'node:20' Dockerfile*
```

Change `node:20` images to `node:22` (e.g., `node:22-slim`, `node:22-alpine`).

---

## Task 5: Check for `python` npm config usage

The `python` npm config setting was removed in node-gyp 13.0.0.

Search the repo:
```
grep -r 'python=' .npmrc .github/ Dockerfile* 2>/dev/null
```

If any `python=` config is found in `.npmrc` files, remove it and replace with either:
- Setting the `PYTHON` environment variable, or
- Using the `--python` command-line flag

---

## Summary of Changes Needed
| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `package.json` | Update `engines.node` to `>=22.22.2`; possibly remove `node-gyp` from devDependencies if unused |
| `.github/workflows/*.yml` | Update Node version from 20 to 22 |
| `Dockerfile*` (if exists) | Update Node base image to 22 |
| `.npmrc` (if exists) | Remove `python=` config if present |

Please make these changes and show me the diffs.

What we checked

• Project declares engines.node: >=20, which conflicts with node-gyp 13.0.0's requirement of ^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0. Any environment running Node 20 will fail engine constraint checks. Fix: update this to >=22.22.2 (or a more precise range) and realign all CI/Docker environments. ^[1]
• node-gyp is declared as a devDependency at ^13.0.0. It is used indirectly to compile native addons — notably @​abandonware/bluetooth-hci-socket (a transitive dep via @​abandonware/noble) which is a native module requiring a C++ build step. ^[2]
• Lockfile confirms node-gyp 13.0.0 is resolved at the top-level node_modules/node-gyp. A separate older node-gyp 10.3.1 is also present as a pinned dep of @​abandonware/bluetooth-hci-socket at line 73, meaning native addon compilation for that sub-package uses the older version — reducing (but not eliminating) the engine constraint impact for native builds. ^[3]
• Official release notes confirm the primary breaking change in this upgrade: the Node.js engine range is narrowed to ^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0, dropping Node 18 and Node 20 (both still LTS at the time of this analysis). This is a hard compatibility break for any developer on Node 20. ^[4]
• CHANGELOG confirms python is no longer a valid npm config setting as of this upgrade (introduced in the 12.1.0–12.2.0 range). Core transitive dependencies were also bumped: nopt@​10.0.0, proc-log@​7.0.0, and which@​7.0.0. Projects pinning any of these at older versions may see resolution conflicts. ^[5]
• This upgrade disables Link-Time Optimization (LTO) for native addon builds on Windows. While introduced to fix a build failure, teams depending on LTO-optimized Windows native addon performance should evaluate whether this affects their runtime characteristics. ^[6]
