Error: Cannot find module 'thrift/transport'

[peking2]

Hello

I'm encountering this problem. At the beginning, it complained thrift was missing. Once I installed thrift, it complains that thrift/transport is missing. What modules should I install to resolve it?

Thanks.

I assume you followed the tutorial. You don't need to require thrift transport. The code below worked for me:
var thrift = require('thrift');
transport = thrift.TBufferedTransport();
protocol = thrift.TBinaryProtocol();

I am also having the same issue - 'Error: Cannot find module 'thrift/transport'

[doxav]

As I suggested previously, have you tried "not to require thrift/transport" but to use this code instead:
var thrift = require('thrift');
transport = thrift.TBufferedTransport();
protocol = thrift.TBinaryProtocol();

[typeofgraphic]

I was never trying to include thrift/transport, or thrift at first - only node-hive. I want to query some data on Hive (someone else set this up, clearly I am new to Hive here).

After running npm install node-hive the console throws an error that thrift is missing... npm install thrift.. - 'Error: Cannot find module 'thrift/transport'

To answer your question, yes I used the above code and it didn't solve my issue. I am putting the code in the var .. require(stuff) section of app.js.

[doxav]

I just remember that I first confused between npm install node-thrift and
npm install thrift, then I had to change includes in my code as per the
code suggested before. No clue if Hive may have the same kind of problem.

👍 @doxav

Hi @doxav , I tried and getting same issue require thrift/transport.
Is there any update for this issue. If so please let me know.

[vardancse]

Any update guys?

Put your thrift dependency to 0.9.1, that should fix the issue.

[cmorrow]

@daumann changing the Thrift dependency to "0.9.1" does not fix the problem for me.

[daumann]

@cmorrow indeed that was the issue for the repo node-thrift-hive, in which the example requires transport at "thrift/lib/thrift/transport" but has the dependency of Thrift on latest. There depending on 0.9.1 fixes the issue there.

In this case, notice that the package.json does not have any dependencies but the node_modules are "hardcoded". So when running node-hive.js it depends on this specific folder structure inside node_modules. If you use a global Thrift installation it will fail, as well as if you add thrift to the dependencies and do npm install - because the folder structure is different.

I am using thrift-hive. i am getting following error

I have tried changing the Thrift dependency to "0.9.1" and added
var thrift = require('thrift');
transport = thrift.TBufferedTransport();
protocol = thrift.TBinaryProtocol();
to hive.js but these did not work for me. Please help.

@AjeetSahu

• leave hive.js as it is
• change thrift dependency in package.json to "thrift": "0.9.1"
• (if you did execute npm install before, remove node_modules folder)
• npm install

or if you like to keep Thrift on latest:

• replace https://github.com/wdavidw/node-thrift-hive/blob/master/lib/hive.js#L11 with transport = require('thrift/lib/nodejs/lib/thrift/transport');

@daumann
//hive query and console.log is not working
var client = hive.createClient({
version: '0.7.1-cdh3u2',
server: '127.0.0.1',

Hi @daumann Thanks for making this node module and making it available to us, can you please look into this error, I am stuck in this from past 2 days . Thank you so much :)

[hardikphp]

Please follow two step to fix the issue in Node.js
As per @doxav given code, put that code on thrift-hive/lib/hive.js

transport = require('thrift/lib/thrift/transport');

Replace code with

thrift = require('thrift');
transport = thrift.TBufferedTransport();
protocol = thrift.TBinaryProtocol();

[Leo555]

I changed "transport = thrift.TBufferedTransport()", but got "Cannot read property 'TBufferedTransport' of undefined"

[hardikphp]

@Leo555 yes, it will not work as new version hive does not support it, try http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38670740/error-in-connecting-node-js-application-to-hive/39529926#39529926
