Cannot find package "esinstall" during installation attempt

[grook14]

Attempting to run the install command curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/obsidianforensics/hindsight/master/install-js.sh | sh

I get the following error when trying to do this:

Node.js v18.17.1`

I am doing this install from my Mac. It looks like its trying to get some kind of file on my desktop. I don't see any other files dropped (except for a files called "package.json" (used to be package-lock.json). Which I had to change to fix part of the install.

Anyways, any help would be very much appreciated!

Hey there, sorry for the long delay on this. I don't know a ton about Node and this error; @ryneeverett was kind enough to build this part of Hindsight, perhaps he has an idea on what's going on?

[ryneeverett]

My best guess is that a breaking change in node broke install-js.sh.

However, this is a nice reminder that I should update sqlite-view which will involve removal of esinstall. Once I make a new release, the pull request to hindsight will delete the code where this error arose.

Awesome, thanks @ryneeverett!
