• Switched to nodejs_18 as this is the recommended version by actual
• Rebased on master

[FliegendeWurst]

Nodejs 18 will be removed before the 25.05 release. Actual recommends an LTS version, v20 is one.

[ambroisie]

Small nit.

[oddlama]

Nodejs 18 will be removed before the 25.05 release. Actual recommends an LTS version, v20 is one.

Oh i see, I got the info from their Dockerfile which is still based on 18.
I've changed it to 20 now.

[FliegendeWurst]

I've also opened actualbudget/actual-server#524 for Node 22 support upstream.

[FliegendeWurst]

Unfortunately this will only build the native libraries for the current platform, meaning the content hash will vary (as seen by ofborg).

I already tried to fix it (by building in the package derivation), but couldn't make it work.

[oddlama]

The solution would be to use fetchYarnDeps but we can't since it doesn't support v2/berry lockfiles yet. So i guess the best workaround we have is to set the output hash conditionally, at least this is what is done in the grafana build which also does that.

I guess this will make updates a bit more tedious, but we probably have no other choice.
