Fails to install on MacOS Catalina

Your environment

OS : MacOS Catalina 10.15.6 Node.js version : 14.11.0 suitecloud-cli version : 1.1.1 Terminal/CMD tool : MacOS built-in Terminal app

Describe the bug

After cloning the repo from github, changing into dir and running npm install, I get the errors listed below. Also MacOS GUI pop-up comes up saying: “The xcodebuild command requires the command line developer tools. Would you like to install the tools now?”. So when I hit “Install” button the licence agreement comes up which I “Agree”, and then “Finding software” screen progress goes on for a sec and then the message pops up saying “Can’t install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server”. Also, the described solution from https://medium.com/flawless-app-stories/gyp-no-xcode-or-clt-version-detected-macos-catalina-anansewaa-38b536389e8d webpage does not work for me either, I end up with the same error message.

So here is the error log:

@alii-gator and @vic-nik thanks for your help guys, I did try installing it from the App Store… it took about an hour, but after finishing the install, starting up Xcode and letting it “update components” - the npm install went successful. Therefore this issue can be closed now.

Thanks for checking that Ali. I tend to think it’s environment problem too as no one else has reported similar issues on Catalina so far.
