I'm attempting to install the Ushahidi V3 Client. I've been following the install process up until when I need to build the project from the source repo using npm and gulp - both of which I've had zero experience with. Whenever I run sudo npm install in the project directory, the process runs without complaints. However, when I run npm ls to verify that dependencies have been downloaded, I get a bunch of dependencies listed out as being missing.
How do I get npm to resolve all of these dependencies?
System Details
OS Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty)
Node JS v0.12.9
NPM v3.5.1
What I've tried
Removing node_modules folder and re-running sudo npm install as referenced in this SO answer for a similar question: npm Gulp dependencies missing, even after running npm install
Uninstalling and reinstalling node and npm
#Strainy, as your research :D
It was a combination of running as sudo and not having the build-essentials.
That's why you should not use sudo npm
Follow these steps:
try npm uninstall. and then try npm install.
Also If it still doesn't work.
Try:
npm install -g npm-install-missing
or
npm-install-missing

Npm install is not completed due to some errors.
I;m expecting the npm install successfully completed and ran this local project.
According to your error message, you need python installed.
You can install that from here. https://www.python.org/downloads/
Install python 2.7.1.
If this doesnt help, than post your package.json and your node version and the operating system where you run npm install.
And in that case, post again the error after you installed python.
also run
npm cache verify
rm -rf node_modules
rm package-lock.json // or yarn.lock if you use yarn
npm i
last will clean up your installation.
After installing python, in a new terminal. (important you open a new terminal)
python --version
npm cache clean in your terminal and please check the version of the node and angular in your machine and fix the version which matches your project then again install the npm npm i
I am trying to clone a remote react-native project but I am getting errors when running the npm install command to download all the dependencies in the package.json folder.
I am in the same root directory where the package.json file is.
This is what I get when running npm install:
when I try doing npm install --force or npm install --legacy-deps I get:
I've tried uninstalling node reinstalling to the LTS and current version.
This is the process I followed when trying to install the dependencies:
clone remote repo
npm init
npm install
I am not quite sure what else to do any help would be greatly appreciated.
First you need to get in project directory then install the node packages
cd <ProjectName>
npm install
I am using the version of node that is stated on electron's site, which is 7.4.0 and I'm using NPM version 4.0.5 (Windows).
The problem I'm having is with the npm install command in the cloned electron-quick-start folder. I have tried using the command with --save-devand -g but they don't do anything to help.
Upon using just npm install;
fetchMetadeta: still install loadAllDepsIntoIdealTree
With the above stated arguments (output);
--electron-quick-start#1.0.0
Then npm start after the above output;
Pastebin
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
You must get npm install to work before you can start the app
You could try the following
npm cache clean
npm install This will cache clean of npm
npm install -g yarn
yarn install This will install yarn (This will probably work but it might not be what you're looking for). Yarn is an alternative to npm
npm -g install npm
npm install This will reinstall npm
And I would look into nvm and nvm-windows
And if none of those work I would look at
this issuse on github
And if that doesn't work I would just look at google
I had install Node.js 4.2.2
i am trying to install socket.io package using npm install socket.io
but the npm installer just keep running with no error output in console after 30min..
Try to install some another package, mongoose for example. If it also fails try to reinstall npm by
npm install -g npm
Try the following:
npm install -g npm
npm cache clean
npm install socket.io
Also check if you permission to create node_modules folder in the directory you run npm.
You can downgrade your nodejs to v.4.2.1 for example, don't forget to clean npm cache after that, and then run npm install command.
First try to remove these packages and then install. Like
npm remove socket.io
Then
npm install socket.io
may be the incomplete installed files are blocking it to install properly
You need to update your npm anyway.
Try from link install:
curl -L https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh | sh
Or you can compile it with make if you clone sources from github
npm install downloads packages from npmjs.org, compiles and then installs. So even if the node_modules folder is taken backup it can not be used on other machines where the os might be different, due to the native machine code generated during the npm install.
Also another problem with npm install is that it downloads from npmjs.org. What if the site goes down?. How to download the packages and the same package be installed offline on all platforms?
You can tell npm to use a mirror if npmjs.org is down. For example:
npm set registry http://registry.npmjs.eu/
Or with a runtime option:
npm --registry http://registry.npmjs.eu/ install express
If you do keep the node_modules directory with your code, you can simply run npm rebuild to re-compile anything that needs it.
Otherwise, you have a lot of options for installing from various locations. You could keep package tarballs locally. From the documentation:
npm install (with no args in a package dir)
npm install <tarball file>
npm install <tarball url>
npm install <folder>
npm install [#<scope>/]<name> [--save|--save-dev|--save-optional] [--save-exact]
npm install [#<scope>/]<name>#<tag>
npm install [#<scope>/]<name>#<version>
npm install [#<scope>/]<name>#<version range>
npm i (with any of the previous argument usage)
