Can't install NPM - javascript

Image of my terminal in VSCode
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling node and clearing the cache but I can't seem to figure it out. Any ideas?
I'm on Windows 10 if that helps

Try these:
Delete node_modules folder if you have one.
Delete package.lock.json.
Then...
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install nodejs
npm install
It seems that it's conflicting with chokidar.

First of all you need to delete node_modules and package-lock.json not package.json
and then add cmd
npm install --force
if you are using Ubuntu OS use
sudo npm install

I had a similar issue before and I believe it has to do with your nodejs. I suggest you reinstall your node cause it might solve the issue.
Try purging it
sudo apt-get purge nodejs
Then remove dependencies
sudo apt-get autoremove
Then reinstall
sudo apt install nodejs
Also try updating your chokidar and axios to a newer version, yours is already depreciated.

yarn command not found after installing via npm

As per the yarn installation for yarn v2, they want you to install using npm install -g yarn. So I ran sudo npm install -g yarn on Ubuntu 20.04. But after I do that, it says command not found.
❯ sudo npm install -g yarn
> yarn#1.22.10 preinstall /usr/local/lib/node_modules/yarn
> :; (node ./preinstall.js > /dev/null 2>&1 || true)
❯ yarn --version
zsh: command not found: yarn
sudo npm install -g npm
then
sudo npm install -g yarn
Then reboot your system. That did it for me.
Before a reboot only sudo yarn worked. I tried looking at file permissions but everything seemed in order and the files were executable as expected. Nevertheless after a reboot it worked.
If you go to /usr/local/bin after the installation there's a link there to where yarn.js lives, as expected, and file permissions for it were also correct.
/usr/local/bin is added to $PATH, so it's surprising that it doesn't see the new cmd right away, but perhaps it didn't reload or map it until after the reboot? I don't know. But I just spent a good hour trying to figure this out so I'm posting what worked for me to spare other the hassle.
TL;DR
If you are managing node via nvm, then probably the path to yarn binary is not included in the $PATH variable. You should add this -
# Add this at the end (or after the $NVM_DIR initialization)
# in your profile - .bashrc | .zshrc | .profile, etc
export PATH="`yarn global bin`:$PATH"
at the end of your profile file (.zshrc for me) or at least after the $NVM_DIR initialization.
I have recently faced this issue and while searching for a solution, I landed up here.
Here is what my environment looks like:
OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Shell: zsh
NodeJS: managing it via nvm, and NOT apt.
After going through all the answers, I was not keen on uninstalling anything. So I tried to dig a bit deeper.
I installed yarn via npm install -g yarn command. So the first thing I wanted to verify was the location of the yarn binary. To do this, I ran the command where yarn which lists the installation path for the yarn binary.
$ where yarn
/home/<user_name>/.nvm/versions/node/v16.11.1/bin/yarn
Then it hit me. In my .zshrc file, I had added the yarn global bin command (which spills out the directory of all the global packages installed by yarn) at the top like so:
# Top of my .zshrc file
export PATH="`yarn global bin`:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
and as per the installation instruction of nvm, the $NVM_DIR (the variable which holds the nvm directory path) was added at the end of my .zshrc file.
So when I was starting up my shell, it was actually trying to load the yarn command (present inside the nvm directory) even before loading the $NVM_DIR path.
To solve this, I tweaked my .zshrc file and moved the yarn global bin command after the $NVM_DIR like this:
# Top of my .zshrc file
export PATH="$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
# ...
#
# Something in between
#
# ...
# Bottom of my .zshrc file
export NVM_DIR="${HOME}/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" # This loads nvm bash_completion
# Here is where I have added the path to yarn global
export PATH="`yarn global bin`:$$PATH"
I hope that this would be of help.
This solved it for me:
corepack enable
(if you get "Internal Error: EACCES: permission denied", run it with sudo)
This is also recommended by the Yarn documentation: https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install
Uninstall cmdtest:
sudo apt remove cmdtest
Then, run these commands:
curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install yarn
If you want to avoid reboot, use
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/yarn/bin/yarn --version
The yarn documentation is missing a step, you need to restart your computer between this installation and running yarn --version.
This worked for me
I recently had a similar situation and here is how I solved it.
First I troubleshoot the current npm installation:
npm config -list
I had a ~/.npmrc file that had a different prefix:
PREFIX=/opt/homebrew
That made my npm installation look for globally installed packages under /opt/homebrew.
In my case, I'm using a different npm installation (not with homebrew anymore). A simple fix is to remove this custom PREFIX from the ~/.npmrc file and the problem was solved.
Now npm looks for globally installed packages under /usr/local/bin/.
I installed yarn with npm install -g yarn on git bash and I tested it with yarn -v that show the version of the installed yarn, but when I used yarn start it gives me this error
C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\npm/node_modules/node/bin/node: line 1: This: command not found
These are simple steps that I used to fix my problem on Windows 10:
Uninstall node.js
Restart your computer
Delete your C:\Program Files\nodejs and C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\npm
Install node.js again and check it with node -v
Start your vs code as an admin and write npm install
Write yarn start

TypeError: Cannot destructure property `stat` of 'undefined' or 'null'

I am getting a TypeError when running npm install -g react-native project on mac.
full error
TypeError: Cannot destructure property stat of 'undefined' or 'null'.
at Object. (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/#npmcli/node-gyp/lib/index.js:2:29)
Might be you are using npm#latest. Looks to me some issue with lates NPM, I have changed my version with RUN npm install npm#6.14.11 -g in my docker file working for me.
When I upgraded to Big Sur, I had the same issue. It's something to do with npm, not react-native.
Here's what I did to solve the problem:
Delete everything related to nodejs:
sudo rm -rf ~/.npm ~/.nvm ~/node_modules ~/.node-gyp ~/.npmrc ~/.node_repl_history
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/bin/npm /usr/local/bin/node-debug /usr/local/bin/node /usr/local/bin/node-gyp
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/man/man1/node* /usr/local/share/man/man1/npm*
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/include/node /usr/local/include/node_modules
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d
sudo rm -rf /opt/local/include/node /opt/local/bin/node /opt/local/lib/node
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/doc/node
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/node.stp
brew uninstall node
brew doctor
brew cleanup --prune-prefix
And then install nvm again via:
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.37.2/install.sh | bash
Now, I was able to install all of my dependencies since now I've got a fresh copy of npm(for me it was 6.4.1).
As usual, Mac OS updates tend to break stuff.
In case you're using NVM too (like me).
I faced this issue too and found that NVM is using a node version called 'system'. I never seen it before and NVM should be using the version I set it to use.
So I decided to update NVM. (See: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm/blob/master/README.md#installing-and-updating)
Seems to work after that.
You shouldn't be using npm install -g react-native.
Please read through the React Native docs on how to do your environment setup: https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup
In case that you have the same error when running any command that has npm, you might have wrong npm version with node 8.
Running this will reverse your npm to node 6.
curl -qs https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh|npm_install=6.14.11 sh

how to set environment variable in lumber framework?

Install Lumber
npm install -g lumber-cli -s
then,
lumber generate "adminpanel_test" --connection-url "mysql://root#localhost:3306/admin-dev" --ssl "false" --application-host "localhost" --application-port "3310"
lumber is not recognized as an internal or external command
lumber-cli is not installed properly on your shell.
If you run this you can see the reason why it is stop installing.
npm install -g lumber-cli
Sometimes it can work if you are working on local env.
sudo npm install -g lumber-cli
You can also try to install it locally:
$ npm install —save-dev lumber-cli

npm: not found when setting up Jenkins Server?

This is my first time setting up a jenkins server. The build is using Amazon's EC2 and Ubuntu 14.04.
I've installed node and npm via nvm.
node -v
>v0.11.14
npm -v
>2.0.0
The repo pulls down just fine into my /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/morningharwood folder.
Problem: When I add my script it breaks
Here's my build script which errors out? I have no idea what i'm doing. I copied this from a tutorial.
QUESTION: How do I properly write my script to npm install, bower install and lastly, grunt test
You could install node, npm, bower and grunt by doing following:
sudo apt-get install node
sudo npm install bower
sudo npm install grunt
To install a package from local source, use
npm install /path
Try using NodeJS plugin for Jenkins: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/NodeJS+Plugin
This will solve npm command not found issue on jenkins even installed on server
sudo mkdir /usr/local/nvm
export NVM_DIR=/usr/local/nvm
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.34.0/install.sh |NVM_DIR=/usr/local/nvm bash
. /usr/local/nvm/nvm.sh
nvm install 10.15.3 -g
npm install #angular/cli -g
Include following on build execute shell command in jenkins:
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/nvm/versions/node/v10.15.3/bin"
npm install

npm install vs sudo npm install -g

for some packages I have to run sudo npm install -g while for others npm install will suffice.
Why and what's the difference?
For example:
npm install -g grunt-cli # doesn't work
sudo npm install -g grunt-cli # works
npm install websocket-stream # works
Is sudo necessary only with the -g flag?
npm installs packages locally, ie. in a node_modules folder inside your current folder. This allows your application to depend on specific packages versions, without having to mess up with a global list of installed packages on your system. See the first paragraph of Isaac's blog post (Handle multiple versions of the same thing at the same time), which explains well how npm avoids the dependency hell often encountered in other programming ecosystems.
On the other hand, some packages are meant to be used as command line utilities, such as grunt-cli, mocha or json. In order to use them everywhere, you need to install them globally, hence the -g parameter.
Please note that you shouldn't need sudo to install global packages, see this relevant answer for more information.
Looks like permissions issue. -g install it globally (you will need to 'root'), but its not a good idea to install that as root
In terminal run:
sudo chown -R `whoami` ~/.npm
npm install -g grunt-cli installs the package in the global mode, every user could use it.
Without -g you just install it in the current directory.
If you are not the root user, you need to use sudo for the -g.
If you use npm without -g and you have write permission to the current directory, then
sudo is not necessary. Otherwise, you still need it.
-g is global, without just installs the package locally.
You run it with sudo as it installs to folders which your default user may not have access to by default.
grunt-cli will provide an executable that will be put in your PATH, so depending on how you configured your system it will require root access.
See this post from npm creator, particularly the part about using sudo with npm.
websocket-stream is a library, your code will use it so it will be easier to perform some tasks, usually it will be installed at the root of your project, in the node_modules folder.
