Discord bot configure shows Input Files Missing Error

Hey, I installed node-gyp for my discord bot. I ran everything correctly until I reached node-gyp configure. I placed a binding.gyp file in the root of my project.

Binding.gyp File

{
    "targets": [
        {
            "target_name": "binding",
            "sources": [ "src/binding.cc" ]
        }
    ]
}

Then, I ran, node-gyp configure. When I ran this, it showed that everything was ok, except for one part. The last three lines threw an error, that the Input Files were missing.

I thought that this was some ignorable error because the last line showed that gyp info ok. I proceeded with the node-gyp build command

So, how do I fix that Input Files Missing Error, and finally use gyp, so that I can use sqlite3

Thanks for helping me 😃

Ok, so I found a fix I changed some things in my binding.gyp file

Binding.gyp file

{
    "targets": [
        {
            "target_name": "binding",
            "sources": [ "binding.cc" ]
        }
    ]
}

This helped me… Thanks for the help @cclauss

Copy paste the binding.gyp file, and then add an empty binding.cc file at the root, beside package.json-this didnt work for me showing the same error@WickedWizard3588
