I faced below error while run npm i chartjs-node
I am using MacOs Catalina - v10.15.3

Package gobject-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing gobject-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'gobject-2.0', required by 'cairo', not found gyp: Call to './util/has_lib.sh freetype' returned exit status 0 while in binding.gyp. while trying to load binding.gyp gyp ERR! configure error gyp ERR! stack Error: gyp` failed with exit code: 1

What @tgk1 said. Also note that chartjs-node uses an ancient version of canvas that won't work with node v12.
