I did not want to edit the binding.gyp file of a module that I was using. So I solved this problem by passing "--openssl_fips=''" into the script I want to use, like npm install --openssl_fips=''

When using yarn it seems the --openssl_fips='' passed to yarn does not make a difference. If the issue happens in a dependency, editing binding.gyp in the node_modules/ directory gets reverted automatically. I ended up with a workaround that edits gyp’s source code directly:

The gyp source code location is printed in the error message:

gyp ERR! configure error 
gyp ERR! stack Error: `gyp` failed with exit code: 1
gyp ERR! stack     at ChildProcess.onCpExit (/Users/quark/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/node-gyp/lib/configure.js:285:16)

gyp ERR! stack     at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:277:12)

gyp seems to evaluate the binding.gyp as a Python script, I changed the builtin variables to evaluate the script:

diff --git a/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py b/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py

The input.py is located in the node-gyp directory printed in the above error message, for example:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py
~/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py
