Error: spawn node-gyp ENOENT

[pgupta-rgare]

I am trying to replace Prebuilt with Prebuildify in one of the npm package that my team currently use. The replacement of Prebuilt with Prebuildify and node-gyp-build is mainly because of the security vulnerabilities in one of the Prebuilt's dependencies.

I have install script as mentioned below and also using 'node-gyp-build' for bindings as module.exports = require('node-gyp-build')('xmljs');

"scripts": { "install": "node-gyp-build" }

Only thing left is to have prebuilds as per the documentation. I tried to prebuilt the package using prebuildify --arch arm64 --strip but keep getting error as shown below

node:events:492
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

  ]
}

Node.js v20.10.0

Can anybody help with the error?
