Error installing Cordova using NodeJs on Windows 7 - node.js

Error installing Cordova using NodeJs on Windows 7
Please advice


Try to Run the command line as Administrator.


Your installation command is wrong!
It is
npm install -g cordova
not
npm -g install cordova
You must run cmd as administrator. If problem persist then install node and npm again.
or clean npm cache by npm cache clean command
NOTE : you must have an active internet connection!

Node sass Error while doing npm install

i was trying to do an npm install command, But ended up with an error related node sass.
I learning react/redux from the "https://github.com/buckyroberts/React-Redux-Boilerplate" from this. and doing npm install fails.
The error is attached as image.
I am using windows 7, with node 6.9. any idea to solve this error?

Step-1: open command prompt with administrator priviledges.
Step-2: type in the following command:
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
This will install all the dependencies required.
Step-4: Now run the following command:
npm install node-sass
And you are good to go !
If you still face problems. Please refer to this page:
https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#on-windows

This is likely a package that depends on native build tools. Do you have Visual Studio installed? If not, try installing it first and reboot before retrying npm install.

Ionic Installation via npm

I am facing an error while installing cordova and ionic each and everytime. As I start my installation using npm install -g cordova ionic. The installation cursor keeps on rotating like for many minutes and then I have to explicitly terminate the installation. Please help me with this issue.

you can try
npm --loglevel info install -g cordova ionic
and it should tell you more about what is happening / where the installation process stalls.

try npm install -g cordova first followed by npm install -g ionic
also you may need to install other missing components if any, CLI will intimate you very nicely.

What the command:
npm install -g cordova
ionic does is tries to install the cordova and ionic in a sequential order and -g manages the environment variables as well.
So, i recommend you to first install cordova then ionic.
npm install -g cordova,
npm install -g ionic,
Furthermore, i prefer using gitbash CLI rather than the cli provided by default.
It handles the issues of bower installation which may appear afterwards.And if you want a complete guide from installing to building an android project you can try the steps of the blog from here.
Good Luck.

Using cache help me to face this issue with following command :

phonegap - nothing happend on npm install -g phonegap

I've been trying to install phonegap with no luck.
I've already installed nodejs using:
sudo apt-get install node
But when I tried to run the following, nothing was outputted to the terminal. See attached image.
sudo npm install -g phonegap

Package name should be "nodejs" not "node".
Also make sure npm is installed by typing :
npm -v
in terminal.
