no need to build pcre-8.39.tar.gz yourself pcre development packages available in all systems.
it will prevent problems LD_LIBRARY_PATH because of with incorrectly configured build of pcre library.

# ubuntu contains swig3 that does not support new-nodejs/v8.
# need to install swig4 from git:

if swig -version|grep -vE 'Version [0123]\\.'|grep 'Version'    # if swig 3 exists
then

  apt remove swig swig3.0

  sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool bison git

  sudo apt-get install libpcre3-dev

  git clone https://github.com/swig/swig.git
  cd swig
  ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
  make install
  cd ..
fi

ldconfig  # update cache
if ldconfig -pv| grep -q libgridstore  # if libgridstore.so exists
then
  git clone https://github.com/griddb/c_client.git
  cd c_client/client/c
  ./bootstrap.sh
  ./configure
  make
  make install
  cd ../../..
fi

mkdir my_modules
cd my_modules
git clone https://github.com/griddb/nodejs_client griddb_node
cd griddb_node

npm install # install nan from package.json
make
mv griddb_node.js index.js
cd ../..

npm install ./my_modules/griddb_node

use:
var Griddb=require('griddb_node')

maybe it is possible to make it build using a install.sh file that is activated on package install
or maybe it is possible to make it work from inside Makefile
also this there should be package.json file
