nvm: command not found - node.js

Good evening. Faced such problem: I'm trying to install node.js, following these instructions https://academy.appgyver.com/installwizard/steps?from=steroids_frontpage_sign_up#/git. But the terminal does not see .nvm command:-(. I tried this Node Version Manager install - nvm command not found, but I did not find .bash_profile or .profile.
Please, help!

One may find it easier to follow this tutorial in installing Node.js on a Mac.

Noob node.js installation problem: -bash: __git_ps1: command not found

I'm now starting to learn node.js following an online course, but I get into trouble after I installed the latest node.js through their official website.
I'm a Mac user, as I follow the course to check if node.js is installed correctly in terminal by typing node -v, it shows the following:

Even if I tried to install nvm as I google for solution, it said ==> nvm is already installed, but at the last sentence it said :
-bash: __git_ps1: command not found
But when I check if node is installed, it shows:

I appreciate for your help as I can't go on learning node.js because of this. Thanks a lot.

-bash: node: command not found [duplicate]

I'm learning laravel and follwing this tutorial,
But when I went try and install npm, is says bash: npm: command not found
If you have already installed nodejs and still getting this error. npm: command not found..
run this
apt-get install -y npm
I also come here for the same problem, The solution I found is to install npm and then restart the Visual Studio Code
in redhat base OS (tested in centos 7)
yum install nodejs npm -y
in debian base OS
apt-get install -y npm
I am following the same tuturial and I had this issue and how I solved is just download the
8.11.4 LTS version
from this link then install it then the command worked just fine!
I know it's an old question. But it keeps showing in google first position and all it says it's "install node.js".
For a newbie this is not obvious, so all you have to do is go to the node.js website and search for the command for your linux distribution version or any other operating system. Here is the link:
https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/
In this page you have to choose your operating system and you'll find your command. Then you just log into your console as a root (using putty for instance) and execute that command.
After that, you log as normal user and go again inside your laravel application folder and run again npm install command, and it should work.
Hope it helps.
The solution is simple.
After installing Node, you should restart your VScode and run npm install command.
If you already installed npm globally on your system, and you are still getting the above error message by using VSCode terminal. Just close your VSCode application and reopen again, that should resolve the issue.
First You need to check the node version using terminal (not gitbash)
node --version
npm --version
if those exists, Restart your pc and check
Cheers !!
In my case it was entirely my fault (as usual) I was changing the system path under the environment variables, in Windows, and messed up the path for Node/NPM. So the solution is to either re-add the path for NPM, see this answer
or the lazy option: re-install it which will re-add it for you.

Nvm and Node keep going missing upon closing terminal

Hoping you can help me figure out this issue!
I just bought a new MacBook and was getting my development environment set up today. I installed XCode, Brew, NVM, and Git. When I installed Git, I had to change it so it was the first in the path so I could avoid using Apple Git, and I think that severely messed things up.
For some reason, nvm was not showing when I was running:
nvm ls or nvm ls-remote
Yet when I told brew to install nvm, it said it was already installed. OK. Eventually was able to get it sorted out and install node and such.
Fast forward to now, I went to run node in the terminal. Node was not found. Did some research and found that I should not install nvm with homebrew, so I did brew uninstall nvm and brew cleanup and then installed through the recommend github repository.
I ran the necessary commands and added to my PATH, and when I ran command -v nvm, nvm was returned. GREAT. Then I ran the other commands to install Node and I was able to use it, until I closed the terminal.
Now when I reopen the terminal and run node, it returns command not found. Command -v nvm does not return anything too.
Please help - it's been such a headache and I can't seem to figure out whats going on. Every solution I'm finding on Stack Overflow works until I close the terminal.
I was able to figure it out. The command all NVM guides tell you to run in order to start running node was not properly added to .bashrc.

Mac -bash: node: command not found

I am having problems running node.js from the terminal.
I have run the node.js installer for mac, but when I try to use the node command in the terminal, I get the following error:
-bash: node: command not found
I have been trying to look for a solution but all the suggestions I found, dont help
In the folder /usr/local/bin I have node and npm, but even when I navigate to the folder and run node, I still get the same error. I don't understand why this is happening, because I can see that node exists in the folder.
I also tried to edit the .bash_profile by adding /usr/local/bin but that didn't resolve the issue either
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! TIA!
brew search node
then brew install node#version, example:
brew install node#8
brew link node#8
node --version
Still getting node not found, try this:
brew link --overwrite --force node#8
Try installing node with homebrew - brew install npm should do it
I found the cause of the problem.
I had edited the .bash_profile to add the path to JAVA but I did not end it with a colon (:) so it ended up combining the path to JAVA with /usr/local/bin
Once I added the colon, everything started working
If you have already installed node and still doesn't work, you might try running brew link node. You could create a force link if an error occurs while creating the link. brew link --overwrite node
Simply run this command in your terminal:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
