Describe the Bug

My project uses the node-serialport library. I am getting the following error when trying to run the compiled binary:

pkg/prelude/bootstrap.js:1872
      throw error;
      ^

Error: No native build was found for platform=linux arch=arm runtime=node abi=108 uv=1 armv=default libc=glibc node=18.18.2

Node.js v18.18.2

I also get the following warning during compilation (when running npm run package):

I have the following package.json:

{
	"name": "my-project",
	"version": "0.0.1",
	"description": "",
	"bin": "dist/src/main.js",
	"scripts": {
		"build": "nest build",
		"format": "prettier --write \"src/**/*.ts\" \"test/**/*.ts\"",
		"start": "nest start",
		"package": "npm run build && mkdir -p bin && npx pkg ."
	},
	"dependencies": {
		"@nestjs/common": "^10.0.0",
		"@nestjs/config": "^3.2.2",
		"@nestjs/core": "^10.0.0",
		"@nestjs/platform-express": "^10.0.0",
		...
		"serialport": "^10.5.0",
	},
	"devDependencies": {
		"@nestjs/cli": "^10.0.0",
		"@nestjs/schematics": "^10.0.0",
		"@nestjs/testing": "^10.3.8",
		...
	},
	"pkg": {
		"scripts": "dist/**/*.js",
		"targets": [
			"node18-linuxstatic-armv7"
		],
		"assets": [
			"./node_modules/@serialport/bindings-cpp/**"
		],
		"outputPath": "bin"
	}
}

What I've already tried:

• Downgrading serialport. Tried the latest (v12.0.0) as well as older versions (v10.5.0)
• Tried adding the following under pkg "assets" (#61, #1903, #1660):
  • "./node_modules/@serialport/bindings-cpp/**"
  • "./node_modules/@serialport/bindings-cpp/prebuilds",
  • "./node_modules/@serialport/**/*"
• I also tried copying the prebuilds directory to the same directory as the output 'bin/' #1660

I still keep getting the above error. Any help is appreciated.

Expected Behavior

Compiled binary to execute without throwing Error: No native build was found for platform=linux arch=arm runtime=node abi=108 uv=1 armv=default libc=glibc node=18.18.2

To Reproduce

Compiling any new node project which utilizes the serial port library

• Serialport v12.0.0
• pkg v5.10.0
• node v18.18.2
